Numi, Numi
Step into the gentle, dreamlike world of Numi, Numi, an arrangement by #LittleFluteCreator Erin Spencer inspired by the haunting beauty of this timeless lullaby. Created for the "Soft" theme of LFM: a Little Flute Magazine 2024 Volume 1, this piece captures the tenderness and serenity of a lullaby’s embrace.
Designed to encourage smooth, legato playing, Numi, Numi invites flutists to explore effortless phrasing and gentle dynamics. The optional trio part includes a delicate yet demanding role for Flute 3, requiring advanced control in the upper register, making it perfect for a teacher or experienced player.
This arrangement was created as part of LFM: a Little Flute Magazine, a quarterly publication designed for young beginner flutists, their teachers, and families. Each issue is packed with games, creative resources, insightful articles, inspiring interviews, and new music arrangements, like Numi, Numi. More than just a magazine, it’s a vibrant community where students, teachers, and families come together to celebrate the joy of making music and share their flute adventures.
Let Numi, Numi bring calm and beauty to your repertoire while connecting you to a supportive and inspiring community. To learn more about LFM: a Little Flute Magazine and how it can inspire your flute journey, visit fluteplay.ca/lfm.
A native of Colorado, Erin has been teaching flute and piano for 9 years. For much of that time, she thought she wanted to be a band director, but after teaching private lessons, she realized how much FUN it is and how big of a difference she can make in the lives of her students. She earned her Master's Degree in Flute Performance and her Bachelor's in Music Education at the University of Missouri to be the best flute educator she could be. The left side of Erin's face was paralyzed in 2018. Although it was devastating, having flute taken away reinvigorated her passion for flute, and the process of re-learning to play forced her to find new ways to improve her sound, making her an even better teacher. Erin collects crafts like some people collect stamps: crocheting, cookie and cake decorating, horseback riding, embroidery, board gaming, and more! Her favorite thing about teaching younger students is how much excitement and energy they bring to lessons. Find more about Spencer Music Studio at: www.spencermusicstudio.com
