CAMELLIA CITY FLUTE CHOIR TO PREMIERE NEW NISH WORK AT NFA!
Marty Melicharek's fine flute group was nice enough to commission a work from me to celebrate their 20th season. Entitled "Flights of Passage," it contains musical depictions of those "rites of passage" that we go through during our life journey. More details (and hopefully, publication) will follow its premiere at the National Flute Association convention in Salt Lake City (Friday, Aug. 2, 2:00 pm)

DOLLY SUITE for Four Flutes and Piano
This is a follow-up to the Three Slavonic Dances that I arranged a few years ago for flute quartet and piano. Faure's delightful piano duets lend themselves well to the sweetly singing yet acrobatic flutes. The piano is arranged to lend solid support in the low range. Available from ALRY.

QUICK STUDY QUARTETS
I've arranged a book of flute quartets (4 C Flutes) written with intermediate students and busy professionals in mind. If you've got flute students who don't have access to the low flutes, I'm sure they'll enjoy the ensemble lessons contained in these 10 arrangements. If you're a college level or professional player, these pieces can fit into any program and are easy enough to perform with very little rehearsal time. "Quick-studies," in other words! Carolyn Nussbaum Music calls this book "the best quartet collection available." High praise, indeed! Go here for more info, or directly to ALRY's website.

FROM SMP PRESS - HALLELUJAH
At last count there were over 400 arrangements of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" for sale on SMP Press. That's a testament to the power of this very simple but passionately compelling song. This arrangement, I hope, is one that flute choirs might want to take a look at because I think it's perfect for that contemplative moment in your concerts and is movingly beautiful. Click here to see a sample page and hear the full recording.
Thanks to all who made this arrangement SMP Press's best-selling woodwind chamber work a couple of years ago!
