Flower Duet (arr. P Le Bas)

In the video score presented here the lovely "Flower Duet" from Delibes' opera "Lakmé" is arranged by Philip Le Bas for small wind ensemble (2 flutes, 2 clarinets, 1 bassoon) and (optional) double bass. A solo clarinet opens the original singer's introduction, but it is the two flutes who take over the well-known duet melody (particularly after decades of BA adverts) for the rest of the short piece. Careful attention to the dynamic markings (especially the ppp accompaniment at the end) should make this a special moment in any chamber concert.
