Faure (arr. Alarcon) - Requiem for Flute Choir and SATB Choir - FC657
Requiem, Op. 48, for Flute Choir and SATB Choir by Gabriel Fauré, arranged by José Carlos H. Alarcón. Optional parts included for Organ, Harp/Piano, Contrabass (String Bass), and Timpani. While it is ideal that the Organ part is played, it is possible to perform it without it by having the flutists play the cued organ notes in their parts. Although parts for SATB Choir and Organ are included, any other standard edition of the work may be used as a substitute for these. In seven movements: Introit et Kyrie, Offertoire, Sanctus, Pie Jesu, Agnus Dei, Libera me, and In Paradisum.
