It's sometimes hard to find just the right piece for that middle ground between the grade 2 young band and the fully functioning grade 3 group. The importance of this growth period in the band's musicality is often overlooked by band composers. James Curnow's On a Renaissance Carol is a great intermediate step with its slightly more exposed orchestration and integral independence of parts. Subtle phrasing, dynamics and stylistic considerations help you take your group to new heights.

The treble recorder and guitar are both very popular as individual instruments but are rarely heard together. Manfredo Zimmermann, working with his guitar partner Hans Brüderl, has written the music for It’s Cool for precisely this reason. The15 pieces in this collection are presented in increasing difficulty, matching the level of his Altblockflöte Vol. 1. These pieces vary in style, ranging from Renaissance melodies to original compositions. The accompanying CD contains tracks tolisten to and play along with. Separate individual parts for alto recorder and bass instrument (with chord symbols) complete the publication. A lovely and unique addition to the chamber music repertoire.Altblockflöte und Gitarre sind beide einzeln sehr beliebt, aber nur selten zusammen zu hören.
