The fact that only one person is playing these three instruments so beautifully is crazy to me. Kudos to both composer and musician

Same. My flute was very old though, i would have to get it repaired if i wanted to play again ;-;. Its still playable, but it doesn't look good or sound as good as it once did.
I used to not be able to name any "favorite flute composers." But you sir, have blown me away.
Miracle Bugs Thank you so much!
I whole heartedly agree.
What @SierraNovemberKilo said
This piece is major music. Takes the instrument to another level. Your writing style is XXI century but rooted in the very first stages of poliphony and modality of occidental music. Humble and simple yet majestic. You are a true artist. Your music speaks to the soul (all your pieces). Also the performer, poetic excellence. This style of composition, though looks simplistic, requires a great performer to achieve the artistry in the musical lines and ensemble.
Santiago Sebastián Suárez Wow, thank you! Very much appreciated. Yes, you can imagine how lucky I feel having such an amazing flutist like Rama Kumaran.
I am in a flute quartet as a performance major in college and started looking for music to perform next year. I found your music today on youtube and wanted to cry. It is truly beautiful! Thank you for writing such incredible works! I hope to play them someday!
Thank you so much Hannah, that's so sweet! I hope to hear you play with your quartet on CZcams in the future!
This is something incredible! As if the starry sky suddenly sounded!
Serge Nassonov Thank you so much!
Это небесная музыка! Захотелось на небо к Богу😢! ❤Музыка с душой 😊
It's very beautiful, Herman! Makes me want to write some flute ensemble music. Love it!
Thank you James, I appreciate that!
Years later and I think this is still my favorite of your compositions. It's similar to my own style in a lot of ways, so I'm admittedly probably a bit biased, but the way so many variations arise out of such relatively simple progressions and the simple harmonies all manage to all be so compellingly rich is just unparalleled. The opening is still my favorite part-that and the "quasi echo" bits, those inevitably send chills down my spine. This performance effortlessly captures and creates sounds that I've spent years trying to figure out how to produce from my own writing.
Major props and accolades, sir. All the appreciation.
You are very kind, thank you so much!
I listened to your composition Child of the Eclipse, very beautiful piece!
@@HermanBeeftinkComposer thank you so much! Means a lot to hear it.
Благодарю 🎉❤❤🎉 музыка огонь. На Дебюсси немного временами похожа. Музыка прекрасна 🎉
I can not express how much of a fan I am of your music. I’m also a performance major in college right now and my quartet is performing this piece and your celtic suite on our recital and we couldn’t be more excited!
That's so great! Thank you and your ensemble members so much for performing my music! So happy you like playing it!
Everytime I found a flute song I like , I'll put it into one of my playlist. Nearly every song of your's are in it.
Волшебная композиция. Выше всяких слов...!
This is now one of my favorite songs to listen to. It’s beautiful
Alaina Mueller Thank you so much!
Just thanks again and again, Herman Beeftink!!!
Bravo! When I was little I listened to the Music of a flutist named Claudia Tulip, and I liked this because it made me remember.
Hermoso, interesante, majestuoso, suave. Pasado, presente y futuro. Eterno... Gracias!!
THANK YOU. Awesome piece! After listening to many lazily written pieces here on youtube, where people keep copy-pasting repetitions of major sections, this is sooo refreshing and great
I wish I knew enough flute players that could play this with me, your music is phenomenal!
Thank you so much!
This is beyond beautiful! Thee alto parts are beautifully done to where they blend and stand out so effortlessly!
I played both flute and violin but never found any music that made my instrument/sing - yet, when I was a junior I played descant, tenor and bass recorder- the wooden tenor I had a beautiful warm tone which a hateful judge at a competition I was entered into took great delight in informing me it was "out of tune". (The view I had formed whilst playing was that their accompanying clangy piano was ruining everything!) I was forced to change to a different instrument and forever mourned the loss of that warm sounding music. I'd noticed before, but it is especially audible in this piece as played by flute, the warmth and joy I experienced in playing my wooden tenor recorder. Thank you so much.
Absdolutely beautiful...atmospheric, soave, ethereal...I love it
Thank you so much!
I have just discovered this extraordinary music and composer and I'm overwhelmed with a sense of gratitude towards the composer, Mr. Beeftink. This morning I played "Birds" and "Frequency" and other pieces I found on CZcams and the (Southeastern Mexican) birds outside gathered and chirped in with a full trill! Gracias!!! A million!
Very beautiful!! I wish I had words beautiful enough to express how beautiful it is..
Thank you so much!
Magic and divine music. Thank you!
Absolutely magnificent music. My new favorite composer!
Mi sono innamorata di questa musica, è celestiale. Viene voglia di riprendere a suonare il flauto, dopo tanti anni che ho smesso.
Your music makes me cry every time
I remember stumbling across this when I first started playing flute almost 4 years ago and it was my dream to play it. now I know I havw the ability, I'd just need the music in front of me. this composition is beautiful
What is this? Why isn't the world crazy over this? Why haven't I listened to this before?
Beautiful! Thank you . Now you are my favorite composer
Such a work of art, wow
i still come here once in a while, this is my comfort music
Thank you for posting this lovely piece of music. I became your grateful listener since last year.
Thank you so much, I appreciate that!
Dear Sir !! Thank you for your music. I love it.
Süperrr süperrr. Çalarken kendimizden geçiyoruzzz.
Ambiance de rêve... merci !
absolutely stunning
This gives me x-files vibes. I love it just purchased it
Adrian McGrady Thank you so much!
This is a wonderful piece and performance!❤️
A sound of the heaven 😍😍😍😍
your compositions are lovely
I am Tenor in choir and I love listening to these classical pieces and contemporary pieces. I cannot put into words how this inspires me in my composition in music. The harmonies are picked so carefully to tell the story. Keep composing man! You are inspiring me!
Beautiful!!!
Your music is amazing maestro.
Thanks for this music!
Thank you for continuing to make music for my soul. This is absolutely stunning and I can't want to learn it. I am humbled by your skill and in awe of how you come up with this. I'd love a tutorial video on how you get these ideas and progress them!
Bought the sheet music, looking forward to performing it
Spectacular.
Thank you so much!
Bello, me emocionó.
Bella música, conmovedora e interesante en todo momento.😮
I composed a similar music named Meditation 20 years ago. I did it inspired in the sounds that I heard in my meditation times. Your music is so beautiful and remain me those experiences. I'm grateful. Thank you...
this is so beautiful
Excelente, saludos dede Peru.
This is beautiful
breath taking
Wuao, que obra de arte
Absolutely breathtaking, I have never heard the flute in such a modern experience it was art to my ears, after playing flute for 13 years then forgetting about it, I am now inspired to play again due to the sheer fact of wanting to play this song! Absolutely beautiful, you have a huge fan all the way over in New Zealand now!
Thank you so much, you are so kind! I’m happy that it inspires you to play again, that’s wonderful!
just bought this!
Mesmerisingly beautiful!
Isaac Glover Thank you so much!
A beautiful piece! I am a double major in Science Education and Music, I am currently at Midwestern State University. I bought this piece and hope to play this at my senior recital with the Pic/Flute 1, Flute 2, Alto, and Bass version. I am basing my recital on meditation and how the pic and flute can help anxiety, I struggle to find pieces like this and so I thank you for making this. I hope to one day buy more music including piccolo pieces.
Thank you so much for your kind comment! I’m glad you like it and it’s great that you’re planning a recital based on meditation.
This is one of so many amazing pieces I want to learn to play. Looks like I have my work cut out for me!
I used your piano courses for my piano students. Still do! Subscribed!
That's great, thank you so much!!
Just... Wow...
Beautiful ❤
Beautiful
Very nice !!!
Very nice!
Your music is utterly beautiful! You write so idiomatically for the flute and I cannot wait to play some of your repertoire...once we can play together again in my quartet and trio soon!
Bellissimo!!
Hurrah! What a wonderful performance! Dear performers (all the four of you)! I congratulate and wish you all the best to perform well in more and more pieces like this. When all the four of you simultaneously play at some parts it slightly sounds like pipe-organ. At some parts where one of you play and other three of you keep silence the voices of everyindividual flute (piccolo, normal flute and alto flutes) is clearly understandable. At some parts where any two of you simultaneously play and other two of you keep silence the voices of the two flutes simultaneously played are also clearly understandable. It slightly sounds like pipe-organ only when all the four of you simultaneously play. It gives pleasant and energetic sense. I like all types of woodwind quartets and quintets either it is composed of similar instrumentalists or different instrumentalists.
Beautiful, as I've come to expect.
Tony Randall Thank you!
@@HermanBeeftinkComposer and thank you.
If the stars had a song this would be it.
I love that! Thank you!
Wow!! Herman man .... Não tenho palavras ...I have no words. Simplesmente fantástico !! Simply amazing !!!
Thank you so much! Btw I like your channel, great transcriptions!
Belíssimo!
simple beautiful
Adriano Donizeti Thank you!
Discovered your compositions as of last year and both myself and my husband are in love with your music. As a flautist of almost 20+ I find your music beautiful as well as challenging to perform in the best way possible challenging my musicality in how I play and the technique I use. Thank you Herman for your gift of music and sharing it with us.
Thank you so much, I appreciate that!
The flute is such an underrated instrument and it’s such a shame how so much of the music written for it only showcases it’s ability for runs when it has such beautiful lyrical capacity. Works like this always remind me how much I love the flute and I hope to play all of your flute works in the future. Definitely one of my all then favorite composers💕
Thank you so much!
Great!!!😘🎼🎹
Thank you!
beautiful writing!!
Thank you!
Your music is so evocative. Someone should snatch you up ASAP to write a film score. 🤓
This would sound dope with violin concerto! 🎻
Well, it's in midi with a lot of reverb, so it sounds like a larger ensemble. If you like that sound, you might need to double up on all the parts.
The part starting 3:52 is so nostalgic
Yo we’re playing this right now in a flute ensemble I’m in and it sounds so… spacey
Nice reverb
Please do a sextet I need one for my RCMJD flute group and I love your music 😊
CARO HERMAN...GOSTARIA DE TER ALGUNS NOTEBOOKS COM SUAS MUSICAS PARA FLAUTA E PIANO PRICIPALMENTE AS MAIS SOFTS QUE NÃO EXIJAM GRANDES PERFORMANCES...OBRIGADO IN ADVANCE...
Beautiful!! But how do you get that reverb effect?
Can you make a saxophone piece... your rep is so gorgeous, and I’d love to hear it ventured out into other instrumentation.
Tyler Frueh I agree
Sounds lovely! I see you like triplets a lot!
Thank you, yes haha triples are more exciting!
Thank you write such beautiful flute quartet. I'll perform this piece in Oct. 27. Can you tell me the motive that made you write this piece?
handsomeflute That’s so great you will be performing it, I’m honored.
Well, in this piece I tried to express the beauty of space and the human connection to it.
@@HermanBeeftinkComposer it appears to me that you have a special report with space. Many of your works are thought and written with this thought of space. Your music is very arioso...great music Herman.
Franco Bonanni Yes, in this case the human connection to our universe.
Glad you enjoy the music, thank you so much!
Beautiful Maestro Herman. May you explain to me why you have in your composition two different tonality. The upper two flutes are in one tonality the lower two in another tonality a distance of a fifth. Are these flutes transposing instruments or you are using two different scales..? Thank you for a response.
3:29 part 2
WHO ARE THE FOUR DUMMIES THAT UNLIKED THIS
They don't know where the download button is xD
Is it possible that only normal flutes play all the parts or does it have to be altos?
I also made a version for 4 C flutes. Here is the link:

Herman Beeftink Composer thank you!!
what can i do if we don’t have alto flutes?
There’s a 4 C flute version on my website.

@@HermanBeeftinkComposerthanks!
This gave me exixtential crisis
Very nice, but as a person who plays the recorder, I confess that transposed staffs are just strange to accompain. Usually people who play the recorder read music as it's written and change the fingering depending on the instrument at disposal. I had to get used to at least three different fingerings (C, F and G), to play a not extensive répertoire. Very professional players are usually able to add a D fingering to their skills. I'd like to propose to the composer to compose also to recorder ensembles (non-transposed, please).
