Selection from "Nutcracker" II (Tchaikovsky) - Flute Trio (3 Flutes)

This is the long-awaited second volume of our most popular Nutcracker flute trio arrangement! With this Selection II, the suite version of "The Nutcracker" is now complete.

These four pieces were originally considered too difficult to arrange for flute trio, but thanks to requests from customers, we took on the challenge. This has been our most demanding arrangement yet, requiring solid technique from all three players - but if you enjoyed our previous Nutcracker trio, we believe you'll enjoy performing this one too.

Notes that can be omitted without affecting the overall sound are shown in smaller (cue-sized) noteheads.

Contents:

1. Danse Arabe (Arabian Dance)
2. Danse de la Fee-Dragee (Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy)
3. Danse Chinoise (Chinese Dance)
4. Valse des Fleurs (Waltz of the Flowers)
