Flute 1, 2, 3

Alto Flute 1, 2

Bass Flute 1, 2

Contrabass

Duration: 5:55-7:00 depending on tempos taken.

Program notes:

The lower the flute choir instruments, the softer they become, so I endeavor to balance the parts by selective dynamics and doubling as needed. The tempos can be adjusted to your group.

I hope you enjoy the piece as much as I do.
