The Baroque Recorder contains twenty pieces by composers including Vivaldi Purcell Couperin and Telemann but also includes works by lesser- known composers. All the pieces can be performed with or without the accompaniment which is suitable for the piano or harpsichord/ basso continuo and comes in both written out and figured bass versions. The music is written in appropriate keys and the technical standard lies between easy and advanced. The authentic atmosphere and styles of these pieces make this book a must for the Baroque devotee.
