Old Macdonald’s Christmas Book is a collection of Christmas songs and carols for recorders and voices that everyone can enjoy. All the tunes can be both sung and played- some additional recorder phrasing marks have been added to the vocal parts to encourage expressive playing. Many of the traditional carols have also been given descant parts giving recorder groups their own musical part to play in carol concerts and school nativity plays. Easy keyboard accompaniments are also provided so that the Christmas songs can be enjoyed as concert pieces or used for music-making at home!

Georg Philipp Telemann`s music is as highly regarded by music lovers of today as it was in his own lifetime. For Telemann very consciously conceived a large part of his works to satisfy the needs of home music making. This selection of minuets can be played on the Violin Flute or Viola da Gamba besides the recorder in C as melody instrument. They are wonderfully varied miniatures which are charming and delightful to hear and yet easy to play.

A Selection of Renaissance Tunes Instrument : treble recorder and piano Nombre de Pages : 56 Steven Rosenberg writes in the preface: This book is intended to give recorder players a repertoire of solo pieces from the Renaissance. Solo literature for the recorder is often dominated by music of the baroque era, while the music of Renaissance is primarily preformed by consorts. I hope that this collection will expand the solo repertoire by bringing to recorder players some of the most beautiful melodies of this period. I have performed all of these pieces in public and have taken care only to include music that is of performance quality. Some of the pieces are grouped in suites, but you should feel free to play them in the order of your choice. For those of you equally at home on descant (soprano) and treble (alto), fell free to intersperse pieces from the companion book for descant recorder. The edition is part of the ABRSM Summer 2006 syllabus (grades 1-3) and the Trinity syllabus 2007 (grade 6). Content : Four Elizabethan Masque Dances: 1.
