Michaelson utilizes the flutes as the featured instrument in this heartbreaking arrangement of Gluck's most famous aria from the opera "Orpheus." Orpheus is in despair at this point in the opera: he sings of losing his love Eruidice, "She is gone and gone forever," (Che Faro senza Euridice). What is the point of staying on earth without her?
