A surprisingly simple work which sounds complex.  Great for community orchestras who want to feataure local flautists.  Also a great piece to spotlight your flute ensemble on a local orchestra concert.  The flute ensemble starts from the back of the auditorium and eventually lands up on stage with the orchestra for a bid grande finale!
