This is a flexible arrangement of the iconic song of the 1970s by The Carpenters, for 1, 2 or 3 flutes with piano accompaniment or backing track. It works fine with either 1, 2, or 3 flutes. Download the FREE backing track from herehttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ar_m2v3n7mvZYO-iFNFmInjGnh8sPWc8?usp=sharingor play along to the YouTube video from 2:54.For a live performance, there are 2 piano parts - the chord accompaniment, plus an optional right-hand piano part (primo), to be played by asecond player, as a piano duet. This adds the counter-melodies and extra harmonic interest. Where only one piano player is available, they should play the right-hand melody plus the left-hand piano part for the opening piano solo.The string part may be played by violins, strings or a keyboard set to a strings sound.The backing track is not intended to be a sound-alike version of the original - it's a little faster and features a lively drum track throughout. It was arranged originally by Jon Raybould to provide a lively piece for his flute pupils to play in their flute lessons.The original song was composed by Richard Carpenter and features the incredible voice of his sister Karen Carpenter.Copyright © 1972 ALMO MUSIC CORP. and HAMMER AND NAILS MUSICCopyright Renewed All Rights Administered by ALMO MUSIC CORP.
