A couple days ago, I learned the flute and guitar parts for a section of "Procession" (~3:26 to ~3:37). I wanted to use actual flute on this, rather than substituting the mellotron flute voice like I did for "Nights in White Satin," especially because this is a fairly simple part and all of the notes are in my limited range. Recording it gave me a lot of trouble though. Part of the difficulty is just that I'm not very good at flute (I slowed the tempo down considerably to make it a bit easier for myself), but I don't think I even have the right type of microphone to record flute. I did the best I could.
I think the original track uses a nylon-string guitar, but since I don't have one, I just used my steel-string acoustic. I've been looking into getting a nylon-string guitar, but it's not very high on my priority list.
Here's the notation for the flute part:
And the guitar chords, strummed once on the first beat:
|: D major | G major :| A major | D major
Of course, both of those come with the disclaimer that I might have something wrong.
