Vocalise: Baroque Arias for Flute, a Guided Collection is currently unavailable

About this arrangement

Flute and Keyboard SKU: AY.FP195 Arranged by Elizabeth Walker. Woodwinds - Flute. Alry Publications #FP195. Published by Alry Publications (AY.FP195). ISBN 9790302120063.Elizabeth Walker presents this guided collection of Baroque arias, selected to enhance tone and inspire the expressive use of air. As a baroque flute expert, Walker directs these arias especially towards the baroque flute player, but they are equally lovely and useful for developing period expression on the modern concert flute. These arias are steeped in baroque period style, and Walker guides the expressive use of vibrato, subtle use of inegale (swung beats), the use of ornamentation, and more. Each aria is presented with the original lyrics, an ornamentation guide, new appropriate accompaniments, and new markings that allow an understanding of the musical phrasing. Additionally, the first aria is presented as a duet (or trio), to further ease the student’s understanding by matching the teacher’s ornamentation and phrasing.
