A beautiful song in minor key, arranged for flute
choir by me, Ray-Michael Kauffman, a flutist and performer and arranger of
flute choir/music. Since I play all flutes of the flute family, I like to
think I understand the complexities of what works and what doesn't for all flutes
choirs/ ensembles.
This arrangement gives every instrument a chance to shine, whether
playing a solo or melody in that instrument part (from bass, alto, flutes to
piccolo). This would make an amazing piece to add to your holiday performance,
or singularly for church/secular or school program. scored for
piccolo, flute 1-5, alto and bass (which may also be played by contra bass).
overall, it is intermediate plus but arrangement allows for less seasoned
players to play flute 3, 4 or 5. flute 5 is not required for performance but
adds extra harmony, structure and support of the arrangement. May be played
from a small group or larger ensemble. larger ensemble please take note in
rehearsal A marking where for several measures, the higher flutes (2 and 1) are
limited in players where as not to overpower the bass flute solo. Thank
you for checking my arrangement out and I hope you love it as much as I do.
** Note this is the original and deluxe flute choir / ensemble version. There is other "Mary did you know " titles for flute , but they are at a small group , and basic entry level ability and those versions suited for basic elementary or middle school quartet flutes.
My title is suited for adult, advanced players of an actual flute choir. enjoy.
