This old New Zealand folk song, made popular worldwide by the Scottish singer Nathan Evans in 2021, is sure to put you in a good mood. This arrangement was made by the renowned German recorder soloist and teacher Ralf Bienioschek for his special ?Ralf Bienioschek Signature Edition? series. The arrangement is for a standard quartet of Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass Recorder, with additional parts provided for Great Bass Recorder or Sub Bass (Contrabass) Recorder. Optional parts for Melodica/Accordion/Keys, (Electric) Guitar, (Electric) Bass, (Electronic) Drum Set, Cajon and a playback (available via our website www.bandmusicshop.com) are also included. You can find a Score Play demo and a 'How to Play' video on our YouTube channel Hal Leonard Europe Ensemble. There are several ways to play the song. In principle, many options are conceivable, e.g. - standard Recorder Quartet (expandable to quintet) with (or without) the Playback - with a band: Melodica/Accordion/Keys, E-Guitar, E-Bass, (E)-Drum Set - with an acoustic band: Melodica/Accordion, Western Guitar, Acoustic Bass, Cajon - or just the Melody part with (or without) the Playback. Have fun with the song and enjoy!/ Répertoire / 4 Flûtes à Bec accompagnement en option

Astor Piazzolla is regarded as the founder of Tango Nuevo, a further development of the traditional Tango Argentino. During his life he composed over 300 tangos. For this edition, Markus Luthy chose six tangos from Piazzollas rich creative work to elegantly arrange them for recorder quartet. Without further ado it is possible to combine the recorder with other melody instruments. The sets are suitable for all players who mastered the basic techniques of playing recorder.'Eine Musik, die sinnlich ist. Sie klingt sentimental, traurig, manchmal religiös, aber nie kitschig. Sie ist rhythmisch, wirkt aber nie monoton.' Markus Luthy (ed.) / 4 Flûtes A Bec (SATB)
