Flute Choir,Woodwind Ensemble Alto Flute,Bass Flute,Piccolo - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1165816 Composed by Simon Franglen. Arranged by Lisa Ochoco. Contemporary,Film/TV. 19 pages. Lisa L Ochoco #766187. Published by Lisa L Ochoco (A0.1165816). Avatar: The Way of Water, is the long-awaited sequel to the award-winning film from 2009. Ā The soundtrack for the new film was written by Simon Franglen, who originally wrote 5 hours of music to cover any and all situations in the almost 3-hour movie. Ā From Darkness to Light is a beautiful instrumental piece in the movie that shows off the beauty of the water. Ā On paper, the music seems a little too simple, but the chord progressions together with the moving parts make for quite a beautiful and memorable piece. Ā This arrangement is scored for flute choir ā piccolo with 4 C, alto, bass, and contrabass flutes. Ā There is an optional cello part that doubles the contrabass that can be played by any bass clef C instrument in a similar range. Ā One of the most important parts of this piece is what helps create the mood, which is where the part called āShimmerā comes in. Ā In an interview, Simon Franglen said that an important part of the music is the feeling of light, and he achieved that by including shimmering sounds into his tunes. Ā With that in mind, this is how the āShimmerā part can be played: Ā Hang a few keys (house keys, car keys, etc.) that have different pitches on short lengths of string. Ā Use a small metal or wooden object to lightly hit the keys to create little ādingsā. Ā Be creative with this percussive part! Ā You can use whistle tones, a little xylophone, wind chimes, etc. Ā The idea is to create a magical mood without overpowering the music. Ā Play this part wherever there is a note in the measure. Ā Duration: 3.75 minutes.
