“Good flute music!”
There isn't a great deal of von Suppe arranged for flute ensemble so this is very welcome. The style is easy to access and the writing straightforward, with just the right amount of independence in the parts. Both the piccolo and bass flute are less busy than the rest which is good both technically and aurally. The G major key and familiar rhythms also help here, and although 6 parts can seem daunting at first, the overriding aim is to give confidence to developing players as they tackle more substantial works.
From the Publisher
A lighthearted and tuneful piece in a skilful transcription of the entire overture, making it equally suitable for a small flute choir or a large flute orchestra, with fun and interesting parts for all players.
It is an excellent choice for a concert item, especially as it has several contrasting sections, allowing for the possibility of playing all or only some of the work.
