Celestial Bodies (Four Flutes)

Celestial Bodies (Four Flutes) By Gary Schocker, Published By Theodore Presser Company. 

Instrumentation: 3 C Flutes, Alto Flute.

Celestial Bodies was commissioned by Powell Flutes in celebration of Philip Dikeman, and premiered at the gala closing concert of the 2017 NFA convention. Composed with a lilting, moderate 6/8 flow, Celestial Bodies is at once beautiful and sad, always poignant. The difficulty level is appropriate for advanced teens as well as adults and professionals.
