Monday, March 10th, 2025 Get my flute arrangement sheet music for this song here: https://www.alexandralangleyflutist.com/shop Happy Monday! I'm excited to share today's new flute cover. I am performing the 2nd to last song from "EPIC: the Musical" called "I Can't Help But Wonder". This song marks the beginning of emotional reunions as Jorge ties the final bow on this musical. This takes place after Odysseus claims his palace and rightful place as King of Ithaca from a roudy group of suitors trying to overrule his palace, kill his son, and touch his wife. After the gruesome palace massacre, Oydessus finally reunites with his now 20-year-old son, Telemachus. Telemachus expresses how he has thought about what his father would be like and now at a loss of words now that his father has returned. He wonders if his father would love and accept him after being away for so long and feeling alone without his father. Odysseus responded with joy and pride seeing how his son has grown into a brave prince and bright young man. He inquires what his son's world must have been like, hearing stories about his father but never meeting him until now. The two men embrace and cry together now that they are together again. While Odysseus sends Telemachus to inform Penelope of his return, he senses that his former mentor, Athena, is nearby. He enters into one final quick-thought where she feels guilt for abandoning him and wonders how the world could be if people showed more empathy. Odysseus explains as much as he would like to join her in making that world, he declines as he is ready to be with his family again. Athena sadly accepts his words before she leaves again. Telemachus returns again to inform his father that Penelope is waiting for him. One emotional moment before he goes to see his wife again. I hope you enjoy this cover! For those who don't know, "EPIC" is a brand new two-act musical adaptation of Homer's The Odyssey in the form of a concept album. It follows the 20-year timeline of Odysseus fighting against war, man, elements, and gods to make it home to his wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus. This brilliant masterpiece was written by the wonderful Jorge Rivera-Herrans. Over these past two years, Jorge has released this musical in 9 separate sagas/chapters, and on Christmas Day 2024, he released the 9th/final saga named "The Ithaca Saga".

Wednesday, March 5, 2025 Carmen Fantasy x Done For Mash-up. . A little experiment I wanted to try combining my classical flute roots with my love for musicals. Combining Francois Borne’s “Carmen Fantasy” and Jorge Rivera-Herran’s “Done For” from “EPIC: the Musical”. What do you think? Does it work? Should I make a full version or just leave it? Have a Happy Wednesday! 💐😄🎶❤️🪈🩷🌹 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Alexandra Langley and my mission is to take you on a journey through my flute music.

Monday, March 3, 2025 Happy Monday! Happy Monday! After a long, long time, the time has come for the 13th part of playing through the Gariboldi 20 Studies for Flute, Op. 132. I was intrigued by these etudes because they are shorter, but they gave me opportunities to channel a character more in the musical. The thirteenth installment of this series is "Etude No. 13: Allegro Moderato”. I found this etude the most “Jig-like” out of the ones I’ve already played due to its use of embellishment, compound meter, and dance energy through the piece. It's fast notes and bouncy nature made this fun to play. I shall link the entire etude in my bio. I hope you enjoy this eighth part of the Gariboldi etudes! 💐😄🎶❤️🪈🩷🌹 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Alexandra Langley and my mission is to take you on a journey through my flute music.

Monday, February 10, 2025 Get the flute arrangement sheet music for this song here: https://www.alexandralangleyflutist.com/shop Happy Monday! Welcome back to a new flute cover on my YouTube Channel. Today’s flute cover is “Done For” from Jorge Rivera-Herran’s “EPIC: the Musical, the Circe Saga”. For those who don’t know, “EPIC” is a brand new two-act musical adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey in the form of a concept album. It follows the 20-year timeline of Odysseus fighting against war, man, elements, and gods to make it home to his wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus. This brilliant masterpiece was written by the wonderful Jorge Rivera-Herrans. I am performing the third song of the fourth saga, "The Circe Saga" on this cover. “Done For” is a strong and sultry duet between Odysseus and the goddess, Circe. Odysseus is trying to find help getting off her island when he finds out that she "revealed his men's true forms" by turning them into pigs under her control. Circe refuses to help him as she tries to protect her nymphs from danger. To where she threatens if he makes one wrong move, he will be DONE FOR by summoning a chimera. Odysseus doesn't stutter as he gains powers from a "holy moly" root from Hermes to conquer Circe. The two duel with her chimera and his Cyclops with the latter winning. Circe still doesn't help him as she doesn't trust him, but she tests him to find his true colors...in other ways of persuasion. I shall link the whole cover in my bio. I hope you enjoy this cover! 💐😄🎶❤️🪈🩷🌹 Check out Jorge's Channel and the EPIC the Musical playlist to hear the entire musical: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqsLXjyXw3iDPFOcGU13VL0E7lEtlup7&si=JP3WWjTmDKAhm4rc --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Alexandra Langley and my mission is to take you on a journey through my flute music.

Monday, January 20, 2025 Get the flute arrangement sheet music for this song here: https://www.alexandralangleyflutist.com/shop Happy Monday! Welcome back to a new flute cover on my YouTube Channel. Today’s flute cover is “The Challenge” from Jorge Rivera-Herran’s “EPIC: the Musical, the Ithaca Saga”. For those who don’t know, I released my first EPIC flute cover of the finale song “Would You Fall in Love With Me Again?” two weeks ago. To my surprise, many people loved it and requested I make another EPIC flute cover. “EPIC” is a brand new two-act musical adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey in the form of a concept album. It follows the 20-year timeline of Odysseus fighting against war, man, elements, and gods to make it home to his wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus. This brilliant masterpiece was written by the wonderful Jorge Rivera-Herrans. Over these past two years, Jorge has released this musical in 9 separate sagas/chapters, and on Christmas Day 2024, he released the 9th/final saga named “The Ithaca Saga”. I am performing the first song of this saga on this cover. “The Challenge” is a somber strong solo sung by Penelope as she sadly contemplates the time to start the challenge she arranges to find a suitor to wear the crown of Ithaca as Odysseus is not there. That challenge was to string her husband’s old bow and shoot through 12 axes cleanly. The disgusting suitors are chomping at the bits to start and take her as their own. However, she reveals that she has been unthreading the shroud in Odysseus’s memory every night to avoid picking a suitor and buying Odysseus time to return. As she would rather be alone or even die than go on without her husband. She would be here, waiting for him. This is such a beautiful somber melody filled with strength, yearning, and emotion as she continues holding onto hope that Odysseus will return amid the suitors getting restless that she won’t pick them. That the only man who holds her heart is Odysseus. I shall link the whole cover in my bio. I hope you enjoy this cover! 💐😄🎶❤️🪈🩷🌹 Check out Jorge's Channel and the EPIC the Musical playlist to hear the entire musical: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqsLXjyXw3iDPFOcGU13VL0E7lEtlup7&si=foYpVBHtNbxNdCr2 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My name is Alexandra Langley and my mission is to take you on a journey through my flute music.
