Illustrations in choir accompaniment : with hints in registration : a hand-book (provided with marginal notes for reference) for the use of organ students, organists, and those interested in church music . The above example, -with the following, shows nearly the best solo range of the open Flute-stop, eight feet. It will not cover the solo voice, and, indeed, if that voice be large and full, itmay require the assistance of a Flute of four feet. When the eiglit-foot Flute is used alone, andit is desired that the obligato descend to a comparatively low compass, the accompaniment uponthe other manual should, at least, partially cease, in order that the Flute be unobscured Avhen itreaches that part of its compass where it lacks the brilliancy which elsewhere secures ending of the solo which opens with Example TS will show this. Here it is seen that the Swellpreserves the rhythm intact, but bymeans of the rests the downwardprogress of the Flute is renderedclear. Flutes of fom- feet, if of delicatequality, may sometimes be used todouble the solo voice in an ui^peroctave, as in Example 80. Open Flute Eight-foot Eange. Example T9. Flutes offour feet Example 80. i-4- tjfeS: mi -m^. It is evident that the tone of the Flute is here two octaves -, distant from the voice, on which aecoimt it does not cover, 3 and sometimes proves useful in securing accurate intonation. It is rarely suited to obligato use, as being either too piercing on the one hand, or too delicate to be effective upon the other, according to the voicing. The eight-foot Flute sometimes moves with the voice q an octave higher, but this stop being ordinarily found only on the Great or Choir Organ, will usually -prove too loud employed in this way, if the voice have a passage of subdued character. ?
