by E. E. Bagley , and arranged for flute choir / ensemble by me, Ray-Michael Kauffman.
Dedicated to flutist and friend Jenny Rhodes Fritsch.

This great little March, considered by multiple historical and patriotic American music groups, to be one of the top American pieces of music.
This piece is arranged smartly, and to be fun for your flutist group and for all audiences to enjoy as well. Great for program music, summer music , march music, early 20th century music, cake walks, reminisces music for audiences, fun to place in between "serious /stuffy pieces", or just to have fun with.
A piece that can be used for lots of occasions and events, and Holiday programs whether Flag Day, Memorial Day, July Fourth, etc.
Definitely a piece your group will come back to every year !

thanks for checking this arrangement out , and visit me on the web @ www.doRaymeflute.com

For those Bridgerton fans out there, Lady Whistledown's Society Paper is how her dearest readers discovered the juiciest news about everyone who was someone in London. "If there's a scandal, she shall uncover it, and share every last detail." Even the queen read it!

The Netflix series burst onto the screen in December 2020, amid a pandemic, and became one of the most popular shows around the world.

Kris Bowers wrote the soundtrack for Bridgerton. The recording was done remotely by just 8 orchestra musicians. It proves, as many musicians have during the pandemic, that you don't have to be in the same room to make great music with others - the process is just a little weird.

The Latest Whistledown is a lively piece that is quite a delight. This arrangement is a bit beefier than the original recording, as it makes no sense to me to have members of the choir just sitting there with nothing to play while the others may think they have too many notes. This piece also includes a key change that the original does not have, because it helps lengthen the delight a little more.

Scored for piccolo, 3 C flutes, alto, bass, and contrabass flutes. There is an optional upright string bass part that doubles the contrabass part. It can be played by any bass clef C instrument in a similar range.

Duration: 2 minutes

This is a fairly simple version of a classic Christmas song. For younger flautists, this arrangement would be a good tool for learning dissonance, as the parts have been arranged to mimic the sound of actual jingle bells. Part 5 could also be played by a bass flute for a different sound. Eleven pages (score and parts included), approximately two and a half minutes performance time.
