"Another Morning"

When I listened to Days of Future Passed on Tuesday, I noticed that there are two simultaneous flute parts in "Another Morning."  I'd always thought it was just a single part, which I'd learned way back in 2013.  In sorting out the harmonies (which are almost entirely thirds), I discovered that I didn't even have that one part right; near the end, I'd unknowingly shifted into the harmony part.

I think I have both parts now.  I recorded and filmed them (using the mellotron flute sound on my keyboard) because that was easier than trying to write them down:


I used the section at the end as the template for my recording, but I think the parts are the same throughout the song (aside from the last few notes, of course).  Near the end, I accidentally held a G note in the harmony part for too long, but oh well.
