Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana for Four Flutes

Take a great tune, arrange it sensitively and you have a piece that really works hard for you.  Such a sumptious melody is wonderful to play so balancing the parts is the main challenge here. If you have an alto and bass the texture is that much richer but this works equally well for four C flutes. It is very approachable on the page so care can also be taken with intonation and tonal quality. These are difficult concepts but this lovely piece makes it all feel very easy. It's really just the thing!
