E lucevan le stelle pan flute

The E Lucevan le Stelle aria has often been presented in adapted versions of the score my many opera or pop singers, by crossover stars or instrumental performers, but never in this type of adaptation for pan flute and string quintet. The first public interpretation of this arrangement was performed by Gheorghe Zamfir during his Canadian tour in 2006, and later, in 2013, this piece was recorded on disc by the pan flute performer Vladislav Panush together with TRAFFIC STRINGS Due to its orchestration, namely the reduction from a large symphonic orchestra to a string quintet, this arrangement provides a chance for performers of this instrument, the pan flute, to include this masterpiece in their programmes for recitals and small concerts, in churches, as well as in open air performances or important concert halls. It is much easier to assemble a string quintet than a symphonic orchestra. The line of the solo pan flute it is not technically difficult, and can be played easily by all artists, regardless of whether they have a low, medium or high level technique. This new arrangement can be successfully used for the climactic point of a concert, as this aria adds a symbolic meaning, with a rich emotional impact that delights the audience.
