Elevate your flute quartet's musical selection with this expertly arranged set of parts for George Gershwin's iconic "Blues" from "An American in Paris." Francesco Leone has meticulously adapted this timeless classic for intermediate-level flutists, capturing the emotional depth and complexity that Gershwin originally infused into the composition. This volume features a comprehensive set of instrumental parts designed for an ensemble configuration of 3 C Flutes and G Alto flutes. To broaden your ensemble's options, this edition also includes a specially crafted part for the C Flute, which serves as an alternative to the Alto Flute part. While this volume contains the complete set of parts for ensemble performance, the full score that offers an overall guide for performance is available separately in the same series. Adding a layer of richness to this offering, the package also contains insightful annotations about George Gershwin and "An American in Paris." These detailed notes are available in multiple languages—English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. This multilingual supplement enriches both the rehearsal process and the performance itself, providing an invaluable contextual backdrop that enhances your understanding of Gershwin's life and creative intent. As a result, each musical measure gains additional depth and resonance, making for a more meaningful and engaging experience.
