Florent Schmitt
In the 20th century, quartets with four flutes experienced a renaissance. This type of arrangement, with its specific, light tone color, especially appealed to the French wind tradition. Examples of some works from the early 20th century include those of Florent Schmitt (quartet Op. 106), Josef Lauber ("vision de Corse", Op. 54), Marc Berthomieu ("Arcadie"), Joseph Jongen ("Elégie", Op. 114.3), Alexander Tcherepnin ("Quatuor pour flûtes" Op. 60 - 1939), and "Colonial Sketches" (1940) by Sol B. Cohen.
