German cellist and composer Julius Klengel's Hymnus, Opus 57 is a lush, chordal spiritual, composed in memory of Austro-Hungarian conductor Artur Nikisch.

Hymnus is a great addition to flute choir repertoire. Originally scored for 12 cellos, this setting has very flexible instrumentation possibilities. This work may be performed by an ensemble comprised of typical flute choir instrumentation, or an ensemble of all concert flutes, or all low flutes including an ensemble comprised of only alto flutes, only bass flutes or any combination of instrumentation. Included for each part is a setting in concert A for instruments in C, and on the reverse side of the page for each part, you will find a setting in concert D for instruments in G.

Flute ensembles will enjoy performing this very beautiful, lyrical music.
