A long arc of melody gradually ensues, gaining momentum and then subsiding, within a largely traditional shape. The initial fragments continually re-group themselves into a set of six variants. An optional harp part accompanies the flutist on the short voyage.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDuration: 5'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Merion Music","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46967990157606,"sku":"680160538522","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/3559\/5814\/products\/C000680160538522_d.jpg?v=1697498959","url":"https:\/\/www.flute4u.com\/products\/hodkinson-s-flageolet","provider":"Carolyn Nussbaum Music Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
