This unique and clever and arrangement features all members of the ensemble and will provide a highlight to an Easter service or recital. Various textures are employed including a variation in the style of a Baroque fugue. The countermelodies and florid accompanying passages give this work an engaging originality while at the same time maintaining the integrity of the familiar hymn.

A simple setting of this pretty carol for flute quintet (2 C flutes, 2 Alto flutes and a Bass flute). Each verse the pitch goes up by a tone until the final verse which returns to the original key. Everybody except the bass flute has a go at the melody and each verse is harmonised in a different syle.

Verse 1 is a solo for Flute 1, Verse 2 is a duet for Flute 1 and Alto Flute 2. Verse 3 adds the Alto flute 1 and Bass, Verse 4 is the first verse with all instruments playing. Verse 5 is a trio for Altos 1 & 2 and Bass. Verse 6 uses all instruments for the finale.

This is a very simple arrangement and should be playable by any standard of ensemble.

This is the first movement of Part 2, Christ's Passion, of Handel's oratorio, The Messiah.

Flutes 1 - 4 represent the SATB chorus, and the lower parts represent the orchestral parts. That said, Flutes 5 and 6 are more diffcult because they are playing the violin parts, which include more ornamentation than the voice parts.

Scored for 6 C, alto, bass, and optional contrabass flutes.

This is a powerful piece to add to your Easter recital program.

Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world.
