By Adele. By Adele Adkins and Francis Eg White. Arranged by Rebecca Bogardus. Pop,R & B. 23 pages. Lillwy Publishing #3009341. Published by Lillwy Publishing (A0.877909).Bring Adele to life with this flexible flute ensemble arrangement! It's perfect for flute quartets and choirs of all levels. Its core is a flute quartet of approximately level two or three (late middle school/high school), which may be performed with no low flutes or expanded to include alto and bass flutes. The first part provides a challenge for your more advanced players, while part three is easy enough for most middle school flutists. In addition, a special optional beginning flute part is included. By including your beginning flutists in your flute choir experience, you will introduce them to ensemble playing in a whole new way, and they will naturally start to imitate some of the phrasing and articulation they hear from the experienced players around them. I find that beginners who have been playing in a school band program for approximately 4-6 months are ready to join in with this piece on the beginning part.
This arrangement is true to the original recording by Adele, with a few adjustments to increase its flutability. It stays in Bb throughout and the range goes from low C (flute 4) to G an octave above the staff (flute 1). The chorus section is especially effective with textures designed to highlight the musical line.
Parts: Flute 1, Flute 2, Flute 3, Flute 4, Bass Flute (optional), Alto Flute (optional), Beginning Flute (optional)
Special bonus! This arrangement also includes a bonus version in a lower key for 2 C flutes, alto and bass flute. The Eb version brings the darker, richer low flute sounds to bear on this piece.
