French composer and conductor Henri Tomasi (1901-1971) published Trois Pastorales for Flute Trio in 1964. As with his other wind compositions  Trois Pastorales was well-received by audiences. Tomasi was born in Marseille but his Father and Mother were originally from La Casinca in Corsica. Despite being pressured in to musical studies by his parents Tomasi dreamed of becoming a sailor and during the summer he stayed with his Grandmother in Corsica where he learnt traditional Corsican songs. However in 1921 he began his studies at the Paris Conservatoire and went on to become ahigh profile composer and conductor. Tomasi did not forget his Corsican routes often incorporating themes of the songs he had learned during the summers with his Grandmother in to his compositions. The Trois Pastorales are named; 1) Bolivian 2) Cretan and 3) Sicilienne. This Tomasi piece is suitable to an advanced Flute Trio providing an exciting alternative addition to the ensemble repertoire.

Arrangeur: Matt Johnston. Par TRANQUILLE BERBIGUIER BENOIT. Based on source material from the archive of the Netherlands Music Institute in The Hague, this newly-engraved reconstruction of the Trio No. 1, Op. 51 by Benoit Tranquille Berbiguier for Three Flutes includes a full score and all three parts. Berbiguier is primarily known for his methods and small ensembles for flutes composed during and after his education at the National Conservatory of Music in Paris. The original edition from the archives, published by French publisher Janet and Cotelle, c. 1820, contains only three parts with no score. While the original aim was to assemble a full score while recreating the individual parts faithfully, editorial decisions were made throughout tocorrect many serious inconsistencies between the parts, especially regarding articulations and dynamics, and even including differences in tempo markings. The resulting standardized, consistent editions should allow students and teachers more effective - and more efficient - learning and instruction. Trio No. 1, Op. 51 is in three movements: Allegro poco assai, Andante non tanto, Poco presto (Finale).

Arrangeur: Shelley Collins. Par KROMMER FRANZ. Czech violinist Franz Krommer (1759-1831), who composed over 300 works of his own, freely borrowed from Ignace Joseph Pleyel's String Quartet in F Major to create this set of variations for two oboes and English horn. Shelley Collins has made it possible to perform this delightful arrangement in a variety of combinations of flutes: Two C Flutes and Alto Flute, Two Alto Flutes (in G) and Bass Flute, or Three Similar Flutes.

Eine 12-minütige Komposition in zwei Teilen: Der erste wird von drei Piccoloflöten, der zweite von drei verschiedenen Flöten gespielt. Das Instrument wird wie eine Luftröhre behandelt - die Erzeugung roher und unkultiviert klingender Geräusche steht im Mittelpunkt, ebenso wie das Suchen des musikalischen Ausdrucks durch reines Atmen und Geräuscherzeugung. / 3 Flûtes

Commissioned by the sound festival for The Scottish Flute Trio. First performance: November 13 2008. Duff House Banff Scotland. In this work all three players in turn play each of the three instruments - piccolo flute and alto flute - thus giving a contrasted sound to match the character of the four linked movements: hence the title. Sleepy using all three alto flutes begins on the lowest note - G. The mood gradually changes as they introduce higher pitches and faster rhythms as they 'wake up'. In Lyrical a flute introduces the melody which is then shared by a second flute and later by the alto flute. With Mischievous the piccolos arrive on the scene. The first oneincites another piccolo and then the flute to join in. The tempo quickens and after a brief climax the mood quietens leading to Peaceful. In this last movement all three instruments are played. In turn they present a lyrical melody but in different keys so as to suit their individual tessituras.

This arrangement from the second movement of Tchaikovsky's Little Russian symphony embodies both of the main thematic ideas in the movement. This edition is a welcome addition to the repertoire for flute trio.
