The Flute Christmas Book

Christmas Reharmonizations by James M. Guthrie. The Flute Christmas Book is a collection of the 18 Most Famous Christmas Songs of all time with new and surprising harmony.

Format

First of all, your flute choir can perform the Flute Christmas Book directly from the score. This is easy because each song is only two pages long, hence there are no page turns.  Alternatively, this download includes a full set of parts. So various combinations are also possible: e.g. flutes read from the score on one stand, while the alto & bass flutes each use the parts on separate stands. The Flute Christmas Book is available in whatever format works best for your particular ensemble.

Performance

This collection of the most famous 18 Christmas songs can be performed as a medley as written. Moreover, selected songs from the Flute Christmas Book could be chosen as the last verse of a hymn presentation. In this case, just play the usual arrangement from the hymnal for the first verses, then switch to this arrangement for the final verse. This adds a great deal of energy and unexpected adventure to your performance. Each song could be repeated depending upon the length of time required. This is a very versatile collection. Suitable for Christmas parties or receptions, church services, and receptions, nightclubs, and school presentations. Also, they are very easy to perform or even sight-read.

Music

Each song in the Flute Christmas Book is adventurously reharmonized, but the melody always remains perfectly intact. This makes it easy for anyone to sing along. Moreover, the songs end properly in the correct key so as to add an element of familiarity and closure. Tempo markings occur at the beginning of each song, but you can adjust these to your liking. Articulations are carefully calculated to emphasize the characteristics of the flutes.

Text by Rabindranath Tagore

Where have I come from, where did you pick me up? the baby asked its mother.
She answered, half crying, half laughing, and clasping the baby to her breast-
You were hidden in my heart as its desire, my darling.
You were in the dolls of my childhood's games; and when with clay I made the image of my god every morning, I made the unmade you then.
You were enshrined with our household deity, in his worship I worshipped you.
In all my hopes and my loves, in my life, in the life of my mother you have lived.
In the lap of the deathless Spirit who rules our home you have been nursed for ages.
When in girlhood my heart was opening its petals, you hovered as a fragrance about it.
Your tender softness bloomed in my youthful limbs, like a glow in the sky before the sunrise.
Heaven's first darling, twain-born with the morning light, you have floated down the stream of the world's life, and at last you have stranded on my heart.
As I gaze on your face, mystery overwhelms me; you who belong to all have become mine.
For fear of losing you I hold you tight to my breast. What magic has snared the world's treasure in these slender arms of mine? ​
