The collection of folk songs from the Americas, Europe, and Australia should provide many hours of pleasant music-making for intermediate-level recorder players. Several tunes can be easily sight -read, while others may prove to be more challenging. Every effort has been made to create interesting lines for each player, consequently, many arrangements do not confine the melody to the uppermost part, but allow it to move from instrument to instrument. Flexibility of scoring is a hallmark of these arrangements, and players will find that almost any combination of three recorders can be used effectively for one piece or another. To aid them in finding those pieces which can be played with a specific set of instruments, an index has been included which classifies the contents by instrumentation.
This book provides recorderists, flutists and guitarists interesting and entertaining music to play. Songs and instrumental pieces from the middle ages to the present have been chosen with regard to their educational and intrinsically musical value, and arranged with careful consideration to provide idiomatic parts for each instrument, while remaining faithful to the spirit of the original. Educators will find this book to be of value in their teaching. Ensemble playing is a pleasant and effective way to increase assurance of rhythm and pitch. The difficulty of these pieces range from lower to upper intermediate levels. Sometimes the recorder/flute part is easier than the guitar part, sometimes vice-versa. For the more advanced recorderist/flutist, variations in the proper style have been added to some pieces for further technical study, and as examples for improvisation.
