Description
Aria is scored for 4 C Flutes, Alto and Bass Flute. It is a very restful melodic piece based on a single motif heard in bar 1. Written in the key of D major the piece is very “hymn -like” in design- with long notes and chords but has some unusual harmonies. The searing theme is stated then repeated with variation in texture. The theme is then developed using the rhythmic motif in the beginning climaxing in E major briefly before calmly returning to D major to repeat again. On this repeat more variation and articulation takes place before a restful conclusion. The top note is top F sharp- the lowest is bottom C sharp (once) and I’ve tried to keep all parts interesting. The full score is 11 pages and parts are 3 pages each- it is roughly 5 mins 30 in length. I have set it to intermediate level but an early intermediate should be ok with some of the parts. The whole score is on the youtube link for you to assess suitability. Price is for the full score and all parts. Suitable for a variety of purposes: Concerts, Recitals, Contests, Festivals, Easter, Church services, Weddings, Productions or an addition to the repertoire.

MikeL –
This is a lovely, idyllic piece for flute choir. Fine treatment of the motifs and a lovely clean balance throughout. I would love to hear this played by real people.
Thank you.
