Gnome in Plaid 219 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but how much of the fundamental orchestration was changed for the LTP concerts (or even between concerts)? I ask because there are some points in FOTR with what sounds like a bass flute, but it doesn't appear in the instrumentation list here. Complicating things, the Kingma site lists a testimonial for someone who played it in an LOTR concert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,042 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Bumping this up because no one answered it. @Jim Ware, @Doug Adams, any insight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faleel 5,278 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Would bass flute be listed? Would it be combined with either "LPO" or "Flute" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,453 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I would think that the bass flautist would simply keep the bass flute on his/her flute stand, play it the rare times it's required, and play flute the rest of the time. That would list the player as a flute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,308 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 The only considerable change in instrumentation I noticed was in ROTK, when Faramir is walking to his doom. The pan flute was replaced by piccolo/recorder there in my show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Isn't there a bass flute under the whole "the Ring can not stay in the Shire!" bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkissimo 1,973 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 This moment? The F#3 and E3 rules out the alto flute, so yep, definitely a bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
