Ravel's "Daphnis et Chloé" excerpt, Houston Symphony flute section

Each member of the Houston Symphony flute section (Aralee Dorough, Judith Dines, Kathryn Ladner, Mathew Roitstein, in order of appearance) gets a chance to shine in Ravel's "Daphnis et Chloé." This excerpt comes after a long, beautiful solo for the first flute, then the rest of the section joins in with rapid scales and flourishes, ending in a low and mournful alto flute solo.

thank you all, as we say in the UK blooming marvellous. And having been at Maurices piano , AND passed my grade 8 flure decades ago I am thrilled to see this,having often wondered how it is scored. and with a memory of seeing your orchestra and chorus live , (Polovstian Dances late 80.s) , proud too. Thank you all.
