Benoit Tranquille Berbiguier (1782-1838) was among the preeminent European flutists of the early nineteenth century.

Berbiguier - Les Regrets - Flute & Piano
Les Regrets, Op.104, by T. BerbiguierGassett Collection - Facsimile Edition by C.A.Vater/NSM, with a Foreword by Peter H. Bloom
Flute Part and Piano Score, PDF $18.00
Berbiguier dedicated Les Regrets (Mélodie Concertante, Opus 104) to his close friend, the composer-'cellist Pierre-Louis Hus-Desforges. Les Regrets appears to be a missive of consolation from one musical colleague to another, both disillusioned and scarred veterans of decades of nationalist French intrigue. Though the initial theme is a plaintive rendering of a dour dead-march, its development is mournfully elegant. The subsequent developments serve to uplift performer and listener with a musical meditation that, though turbulent, avoids bathos. Dashes of a bit of scherzo here and there move the music, ultimately, to an heroic major-key finale.

Flute and Piano Parts, PDF $13.50
Berbiguier's Nouvelle Fantaisie (Opus 80), like his Grande Fantaisie (Opus 77), was composed on melodies from Carl Maria von Weber's genre-defining opera Der Freischütz. Both pieces were published around 1825. Enthusiasm for Der Freischütz continued to build in subsequent decades, as evinced by the nearly numberless fantaisies, paraphrases, souvenirs, and variations that have been published. Melodies from Freischutz pervade the classic repertoire of instruments from aeolian pianola to zither, including examples for concertina, mandolin, saxophone, and ocarina quartet. Piano and flute sheet music.

Bloom - From the Drawer - Tenor or Soprano, Flute, Clarinet, Bassoon, Horn
From the Drawer, by Peter H. BloomContemporary Composition for Tenor or Soprano, with Flute (doubling Piccolo), Clarinet in B-flat, Bassoon, and Horn in F
Score and Parts, PDF $13.99
Peter H. Bloom is a Boston-based flutist, whose original compositions and arrangements are published by Noteworthy Sheet Music. From the Drawer was written for Tenor or Soprano, with Flute (doubling Piccolo), Clarinet, Bassoon, and Horn, and provides a musical setting for the intensely emotional poem by Constantine Cavafy.
Here are Peter Bloom's comments about From the Drawer from the composer's preface (Copyright © 2015) to the edition:
"Constantine Cavafy’s 1923 poem, From the Drawer, captures the acerbic condition of longing, the impossibly private nature of affection, and the occultation of time. Its poignancy is universal; transcending gender, age, era, place, and even translation. Rather than rely on one particular translation of Cavafy’s text, I’ve drawn on a number of versions to arrive at a paraphrase that both informs and is shaped by the musical score.
The musical setting is a sonic image of the intensely emotional response to a flood of memory that informs the poet’s narrative: now pensive, now anxious, now wistful, now joyous, now fraught, now resigned, and ever mercurial." P. H. Bloom, September 19, 2015
Our sheet music edition of From the Drawer was featured on the New Products page of the Summer 2016 edition of "The Flutist Quarterly", journal of The National Flute Association.

Bowlby - Laurels - Flute
Laurels, by Timothy J. BowlbyContemporary Composition for Solo Flutist, playing flute, alto flute, and piccolo, PDF $9.00
—adapted from excerpts of program notes written by the composer, Timothy J. Bowlby:
Laurels, for solo flutist playing flute, alto flute, and piccolo, was written in 2018 for two of the composer’s flutist colleagues, Laurel Tempas and Peter H. Bloom. The piece is cast in a three-section form. The flute is featured exclusively in the initially march-like A section of the work. A “lyrical alto flute passage”, requested by Mr. Bloom, starts the middle or B section and the piccolo concludes it; the overall affect is one of contemplation and reflection in nature. The concluding A’ portion is begun by the piccolo and ends with a return to the flute and the march-like material that started the piece.Laurels was premiered by Peter H. Bloom in June, 2019; a recording of the performance can be accessed on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8s4Gos2lE8.Flute part, 5 pages of music; Total, 8 pages.

Brahms – Variationen über ein Thema von Robert Schumann – Pf, Fl, Ob, Cl, Bn
Variationen über ein Thema von Robert Schumann, Op.23, by Johannes BrahmsArranged for Piano, Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, and Bassoon by John W. Pratt
Piano Score and Wind Parts, PDF $16.99
- adapted from John W. Pratt’s foreword to the edition: Brahms’s Variations on a Theme by Robert Schumann, Op.23, were written in tribute to his friend, for piano four hands. Yet how often have you heard this exquisite masterpiece, in any form? Arranging it as a quintet for piano and winds allows realization of its implicit orchestral effects and incorporation of contrasting and beautiful woodwind sonorities while preserving its many special piano sonorities and its personal, chamber music qualities and will, hopefully, encourage performance. The variations range from delicately decorative (Var. I) to spectral (IV) to warmly Brahmsian (many) to bravura (IX) and even perhaps witty (V and VII). The final variation (X) is an amazing valedictory, a funeral march which becomes combined with the theme and is suffused throughout with sadness, solemnity, resignation, and reaffirmation, by turns and even simultaneously. Especially apt contributions by the woodwinds in this arrangement include, to mention just two, the appreciative chuckles accompanying the rollicking theme of Var. V and the chorale effect at the end of Var. X. At the same time, the arrangement allows the piano to fulfill its usual roles in chamber ensembles and to contribute some special colorings of its own, including the multi-octave filigree of Var. I, the layout of the accompaniments in the first part of Var. III and last part of Var. V, the bass rumbles of Var. IV and Var. X, and the two-hand octaves in Var. VI and Var. IX.
Listen to a computer-generated audio clip of the Theme; of course, real live instruments will sound even better:

Briccialdi - Fantaisie pour la Flûte - Fl & Pf
Fantaisie pour la Flûte, Op.110, by BriccialdiGassett Collection - Facsimile Edition by C.A.Vater/Noteworthy Sheet Music
Flute Part and Piano Score, PDF $13.50
The virtuoso Italian flutist Giulio Briccialdi (1818-1881) was a captivating performer and a brilliant and prolific composer of works for the flute. His compositions became highly popular among flutists and include several concerti and numerous duets, caprices, fantasies, and etudes. He served as professor of flute at the Academy of St. Cecilia in Rome and later at the Florence Conservatoire. A proponent of the Boehm flute, Briccialdi is best known today for his invention of the Briccialdi B-flat thumb key and for his variation on the Carnival of Venice, "Il Carnevale di Venezia" (Op.78). We offer here our facsimile edition of his charming, challenging, and otherwise unavailable Fantaisie pour la Flûte sur des motifs de l'opera La Sonnambula de Bellini (Op.110).

Like the 4 Short Pieces for Violin and Pianoforte published in transcription by Noteworthy Sheet Music earlier this year, these additional four short pieces by Bridge "provide a fine and delightful introduction to an accessible post-romantic composer who should be better known." Published by Bridge between 1903 and 1911, the works included in our second edition are transcriptions of Cradle Song, written for violin or cello and piano, Gondoliera for violin and piano, and Mélodie and Elégie for cello and piano. Mr. Pratt has created transcriptions of all four pieces for both flute and alto flute, and we include both instrument versions in this combined edition. We think Cradle Song and Elégie are particularly beautiful on the alto flute, but all are effective on either instrument, so we prefer to let our flutists decide on which instrument they choose to play each piece. We provide our flute and alto flute parts only; the original piano scores work well with our transcriptions and are available, along with the violin and cello parts, as free pdf downloads at imslp.org—click the links to access the scores for Cradle Song, Gondoliera, Mélodie, and Elégie.

Mr. Pratt has created transcriptions of the violin parts for both flute and alto flute, and we include both instrument versions in this edition.

Harry Thacker Burleigh was an acclaimed African-American singer, music editor, and composer whose adaptations of African-American spirituals became famous.

The original composition included 4 movements. Our edition excludes the second movement, but adapts three of the original four miniatures for either alto flute or flute. We provide only the transcribed alto flute and flute parts, as they have been designed to work well with the piano part in the original score for violin and piano which is available as a good quality, free pdf download from imslp.org.

Cambini - Sonata in D Major - Flute and Clarinet
Sonata in D Major, Op.5, No.1, by Giuseppe Maria CambiniTranscribed for Flute and B-flat Clarinet by R.A.Evans
Score and Parts, PDF $7.99Giuseppe Maria Cambini (1746-1825) was an Italian-born violinist and composer. He was one of the most prolific composers of his era, particularly of instrumental works, of which he wrote over 600, including numerous symphonies, 149 string quartets and over 100 trios, as well as ballets, operas, & oratorios. Flutists will know him for his concertos and extensive body of chamber works featuring the flute, including duos, trios, quartets and quintets.
Cambini wrote his Sonata in D Major, Op.5, No.1 for two flutes, and Noteworthy Sheet Music has published a re-notated version of the flute duet at the suggestion of flutist Richard A. Evans, who long ago obtained the music from the Library of Congress and believed it undeserving of its current obscurity. Aware of the scarcity of music composed for flute-clarinet duos, Mr. Evans also initiated this flute-clarinet edition of Cambini's Sonata in D Major by transcribing the flute-2 part for clarinet in B-flat. We at NSM agreed that the Op.5, No.1 duet should be made more readily available to present-day musicians and audiences, in both the flute-flute and flute-clarinet versions. Our editions provide both scores and parts, and incorporate articulation and dynamic edits supplied by Mr. Evans.Score, 8 pages; Flute part, 4 pages; B-flat Clarinet part 4 pages; Total, 22 pages.

Coste - Les Regrets - Afl or Fl (or Ob, Vn) and Pf (or Guitar, Harp)
Les Regrets-Cantilène, Op.36, by Napoléon CosteTranscribed for Alto Flute or Flute (or Oboe or Violin) and Piano (or Harp or Guitar) by C.A.Vater
Score, Alto Flute Part, and alternative Flute (or Oboe or Violin) Part, PDF $5.99
Napoléon Coste (1805-1883) became famous not only as a guitar soloist, but also as a major composer of some 60 works, most of which were written for guitar. His music is in the romantic French style and appreciated for its originality. His Fantaisie, Op.36, Les Regrets-Cantilène, is a short, single-movement piece written for oboe or violin with piano or harp or guitar. We created our Noteworthy Sheet Music edition from the difficult-to-read manuscript version in the public domain, available on imslp.org. We include a score in concert pitch and a part suitable for flute, oboe or violin, as well as a part transcribed for alto flute in G. The piece falls nicely within the sweet range of the alto flute and our transposition sounds appealing and completely natural on that instrument. In fact, Les Regrets-Cantilène is gorgeous on either flute or alto flute. Melodic and sentimental, the work is not overly demanding technically and should appeal to players of a moderate or higher skill level.

Danzi - Grande Sonate - Piano & Flute
Grande Sonate, Op.62, by Franz Danzitranscribed for Piano and Flute by John W. Pratt
Piano score and Flute part, PDF $14.99
excerpted from John Pratt’s foreword to the edition: 'Franz Danzi (1763-1826) was an active musician, cellist, and teacher in Mannheim, Munich, Stuttgart, and Karlsruhe. A prolific composer, especially of music for the stage and chamber music from keyboard solos to sextets, he revered Mozart and mentored Weber. His wind quintets are notable. His Grande Sonate, Opus 62, for piano and basset horn, was published about 1823, along with an alternative cello part which sometimes differs from the basset horn part in other ways than octave transposition. // The sound of the basset horn varies widely, depending on its construction, who is playing, what is being played, and who is describing it. George Bernard Shaw said, ''The devil himself could not make a basset horn sparkle.'' Burnet Tuthill, in Cobbett's Cyclopedic Survey of Chamber Music (1929), wrote of its "soft mellow timbre of rich beauty.” E.T.A. Hoffmann likened its sound to the scent of red carnations (see Georgina Dobré, The Basset Horn,who says, pace Shaw, “Sparkle it certainly can!”). That tent is broad enough to cover the characteristics of both the flute and the clarinet comfortably, and Danzi’s Grande Sonate alternates sparkle and mellow rich beauty in large measure.' Since we at NSM have grown quite fond of this piece, we decided to transcribe it for both flute and clarinet, so we and our friends could enjoy playing it. We offer here the flute edition, with a version for clarinet to follow in the coming weeks.

Score and Parts, PDF $9.99François Devienne (1759-1803) was a French composer, flutist and bassoonist, as well as a professor at the Paris Conservatory. His compositional output included: 12 operas; many concerted pieces for various wind instruments, with orchestra; overtures; concertos, quartets, trios, sonatas, etc. for flute, piano, and other instruments; 12 suites; numerous romances, chansons, etc.; and an influential flute method book, Méthode de flûte (1795).
Noteworthy Sheet Music published this edition of Devienne's Sonata in D Major, Op.10, No.1 at the suggestion of flutist Richard A. Evans, who long ago obtained the original flute-flute duet from the Library of Congress and believed it undeserving of its current obscurity. Aware of the paucity of repertoire available for flute and clarinet, and realizing the piece would work nicely for that instrument pair as well, he transcribed the second flute part for B♭ clarinet. We at NSM agreed that the duet, which has two movements, Allegro spirituoso and Rondo: Allegro poco presto, should be made more readily available to present-day musicians and audiences. Our edition provides both score and parts and incorporates articulation and dynamic edits supplied by Mr. Evans.Score, 10 pages; Flute part, 5 pages; B♭ clarinet part, 5 pages; Total, 24 pages.
