Raleigh Flute Choir

The Raleigh Flute Choir is pleased to announce its fall program, Musical Portraits

This concert will present a selection of movements from Sigfrid Karg-Elert’s 33 Portraits for Harmonium, arranged for flute choir by our own Thiago Bottega. Karg-Elert wrote each movement of this work in the manner of a different influential composer, leading to a fascinating look at the unique characteristics that define these artists’ styles.

Founded in 1986, the Raleigh Flute Choir is one of the nation’s leading professional flute choirs. Performing regularly throughout North Carolina, the ensemble has also played at the White House and in Chicago, Orlando, Charleston, and Williamsburg. Their varied repertoire ranges from arrangements of familiar orchestral pieces to world premieres of contemporary flute choir literature. The Raleigh Flute Choir has recorded four albums, with the most recent one, Kaleidoscope, available on Apple Music.
