Overnight Sensations

Info

After the success of their first CD ‘Christmas Crackers’ and many requests from their fans, Festive Flutes bring you their 2nd CD ‘Overnight Sensations’ in support of the NSPCC. This light-hearted programme presents arrangements of music taken from the movies, musicals, opera and film. Talented experts have risen to the challenge of converting wonderful masterpieces into witty new arrangements for flutes with the occasional splash of percussion. Festive Flutes founding members, Sarah and Liz, first met at the Royal College of Music as junior exhibitioners and gathered fellow festive fluters Alison and Mel during their studies at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. The group also makes a point of working with young, emerging flautists and on this CD we are joined by the talented Laura, a recent graduate of Cambridge.
