Lets Swing

Let's Swing composed by Alexander Hanselmann (published 2000)
Written for Flute Choir; Piccolo, 4 C flutes, Alto flute, Bass flute, and Piano (ad lib)

The composer's students asked him to write a “hot” piece of music for their music camp, because ensemble playing is much more fun with some modern music. So, he wrote “Let's Swing“. The piece was originally composed for a student orchestra and is published here in a flute ensemble version with soloists or chorus.

The orchestration can well be changed: the piccolo may be left out, the bass flute may be replaced or augmented by a cello or bassoon (part enclosed). In the same way, the part of the alto flute in G can be played by a clarinet.
