Choral Varié, Op.55, by Vincent d’Indy
Solo part transcribed for Alto Flute by C. A. Vater (originally for saxophone or viola)
Part for Alto Flute, PDF $5.99
D’Indy composed his Choral Varié pour Saxophone solo (ou Alto) et Orchestre, Op.55 in 1903. The composer also created an orchestral reduction arrangement, published by Durand, Paris, 1903, for alto saxophone (or viola) and piano; it is this edition that we used as the basis for our transcription of the solo part for alto flute. The Choral Varié piece is appealing and distinctive, solemn and tender. It adapts nicely to the alto flute, highlighting the beautiful, intimate quality of that instrument’s low-register tones. Our publication provides only our transcribed alto flute part; the piano part, published as the composer’s score in concert pitch for solo and piano, is freely available as a PDF download from imslp.org.
