Par BONSOR BRIAN. The best way to learn any instrument is to have lessons from a good, experienced teacher. Although, happily, the number of such teachers is constantly growing, the recorder is still frequently taught by enthusiastic but inexperienced teachers and many players start by teaching themselves. This series of books sets out to help learners of all ages in all three situations. Experienced teachers, who may choose to disregard much of the text as personal demonstration is always clearer than the written word, will find exercises and fine tunes a-plenty to support their own mathod at each stage. The less experienced willbenefit from many valuable teaching hints culled from long experience and may rely on the books to lead to a sound playing technique and a mastery of simple notation. Those learning by themseves - and I started in this way - are urged to work carefully and systematically through the books, taking plenty of time to assimilate each point before moving on. For them, without the personal model provided by a live teacher, it is vitally important to listen as often as possible to fine players, in person or on record, so that they have in their mind's ear a clear notion of the kind of sound they would like to produce. But however they start, I can only wish that all who use these books will derive as much pleasure and musical satisfaction and gain as many lasting and valued friendships as I have through this most subtle, delightful and sociable of instruments. (Brian Bonsor) ?...this work is likely to become a standart work very quickly and is to be recommended to all schools where recorder studies are undertaken? (Oliver James, Contact Magazine) These two tutors, with accompanying teacher's books, are for newcomers to the instrument who are beginning on the treble and so assume no previous knowledge either of the instrument or of musical notation./ Recueil / Flûte à Bec et Piano

Par PURCELL HENRY. Staeps (rightly) believes that the English Baroque is the fountainhead of recorder music, and that Purcell's music is the perfect vehicle. Here, he takes six excerpts from The Fairy Queen (introductions and dances) and fashions a Suite for recorder quartet with basso continuo (keyboard instrument with another bass instrument playing an octave lower than the bass recorder). For advanced quartets. Reprint of the 1957 UE original. / Musique contemporaine / Répertoire / Quatuors de Flûtes à Bec et Clavecin ou Piano

Par ZAHNHAUSEN MARKUS. Markus Zahnhausen’s Lux Aeterna belongs to a very special category in my repertoire. The tender and dangerous beauty of his music has fascinated me for years. In a contemporary musical language Zahnhausen has managed to bring theinstrument back to what it once was: flauto - the flute! His expressive music never takes the instrument beyond its limits, thus avoiding the trap of many a modern work. There is a perfect balance between form, content andidiomatic writing that places both his music and the recorder where they belong: in the hearts of the listeners! I have had a tremendous time when studying Lux Aeterna. I sometimes wondered whether I played the piece or the piecewas playing me . . . Dan Laurin/ Recueil / Flûte à Bec Alto

A Selection of Renaissance TunesInstrument : treble recorder and pianoNombre de Pages : 56Steven 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.
