Here's another favorite from The Nutcracker - Trepak! Yes, they're all my favorite and no I won't pick just one. 🤓
The version I’m playing here is scored for 3 C flutes and alto flute. No low flutes in your ensemble? No problem - this flexible arrangement includes alternate parts if you want to play with 4 C flutes.

Anybody remember using VHS tapes to record stuff that was on TV? My family has a beloved Christmas tape, and that's where I first heard this song - John Denver did a Christmas special with the Muppets and they use a tiny excerpt of this at the beginning of a whole big number with John playing a toy soldier and Miss Piggy playing a doll. The 1979 commercials preserved on the tape are awesome too!

Today I'm sharing another movement from Liszt's Weihnachtsbaum! "In Dulci Jubilo" is a traditional Christmas carol that has been used in many different arrangments - you might know it as "Good Christian Men Rejoice." Today's version is arranged for flute quartet!
