    Personent Hodie – Flute Quartet

    Personent Hodie is a Christmas carol originally published in a 1582 Finnish song book, a volume of 73 Medieval songs with Latin texts. A melody found in a 1360 manuscript is highly similar, and it is from this manuscript that the song is usually dated.

    It became more prominent in England after being arranged for unison voices and orchestra in 1916 by Gustav Holst. It was written in honor of St. Nicholas, and will add an international flavor to your Christmas concerts.

    The flute quartets can easily be expanded to flute choir by adding both alto and bass flutes. The Alto Flute part is included and the bass plays Flute 4.

    Composer: Bill Reichenbach
    Instrumentation: Flute Quartet
    Duration/# of Pages: ca. 2:25 / 20 pages, 8.5″ x 11″
    Key: N/A

    Rejoice With Me – Flute choir

    This beautiful Renaissance motet has been carefully arranged for flute choir. It was first published in 1572, written by Tomas Luis Victoria, the most famous composer in 16th century Spain and one of the greatest, ranking with Palestrina and Orlando di Lasso.

    The simple lines, homophonic textures, rhythmic variety, repeated notes for emphasis, and tonal contrasts foreshadow the major-minor concept characteristic of the Baroque era.

    This motet would be lovely for an offertory or other solemn event. It could also be played any time of the year since it is not a familiar carol.

    Composer: Bill Reichenbach
    Instrumentation: 6 C Flutes, Alto Flute & Bass Flute
    Duration/# of Pages: ca. 4:30 / 24 pages, 8.5″ x 11″
    Key: N/A
