Original

To Be Sung of a Summer Night on the Water. 1st mvt. composed by Frederick Delius. 1862-1934. Arranged by Mel Orriss. For flute quintet. 3 flutes, alto flute, bass flute. Flutets series. Grade 6 to 9. Score and parts. Duration 1'45. Published by Wonderful Winds. WN.D005. This sublime piece is one of a pair of unaccompanied part-songs written for wordless chorus, and later rearranged to form one of the 2 Aquarelles for String Orchestra. It translates wonderfully for flutes, with the tune meandering through the lush chromatic texture.
