Fantasie Pastorale Hongroise
by Albert Franz Doppler
Fantasie Pastorale Hongroise or Hungarian Pastoral
Fantasy is an extremely difficult flute solo that all advanced players
should be familiar with. It was originally done with orchestral accompaniment.
I have reduced that accompaniment to be performed by flute choir.
The flute choir part is fairly easy. The challenge of this piece
is coordinating it with the soloist as the piece changes tempo constantly
and care must be given to let the soloist have his or her freedom, especially
in the more difficult passages.
In fairness to the player who probably has spent
many long hours learning this beautiful but trying piece, I've kept it
in the original key so they won't have to relearn it and so they may use
their pre-owned parts instead of the one provided if they so choose.
The piece is arranged for solo C Flute, C flutes
1, 2 and 3, alto and bass flute. None of these parts is optional.
