The Four Seasons - Autumn [Flute Choir]

From the Publisher

The Four Seasons of Antonio Vivaldi are among the most recognizable pieces of all classical music. Originally composed as four violin concerti, Vivaldi originally published the works with accompanying poetry, thus making them among the earliest examples of programmatic music. Here, the concerto depicting Autumn has been arranged for flute ensemble by Shaul Ben-Meir.

Movements

1. Allegro: The peasant celebrates with song and dance the harvest safely gathered in.
2. Adagio: The singing and the dancing die away as cooling breezes fan the pleasant air, inviting all to sleep without a care.
3. Allegr: The hunters emerge at dawn ready for the chase, with horns and dogs and cries.
