Volume I contains a valuable introduction to the series and to the art of consort playing. 2-6 recorders: Descant, Treble, Tenor, Bass in various combinations./ Recueil / 2-4 Flûtes à Bec

Hans-Martin Linde (b. 1930) is not only one of the best-known recorder players of the twentieth Century but has enriched the contemporary recorder repertoire with significant works for concert performance and tuition purposes. The composition Reminiscences for Quartet for the unusual and delightful-sounding combination A[treble]/T/T/B uses musical themes from the 15th to 17th Centuries: from a 'Prélude l'imitation' by Froberger a melody by Claudio Saraceni 'Da te parto' themes from keyboard sonatas by Domenico Scarlatti the Chanson 'Adieu mes très belles' by Binchois and a ground bass from Purcell's harpsichord collection 'Musik's Handmaid'. The composer writes: 'Inmany of my compositions a meeting takes place between old and new. In this Suite too present events unfold against the background of the past. Models from early music are mirrored in the present.'

Instrumentation: Descant doubling sopranino/treble/tenor recorder and piano or guitarHat Box is a celebration of the town of Stockport home to recorder virtuoso John Turner to whom (with guitarist Neil Smith) this piece is dedicated. Stockport was formerly the centre of the hat-manufacturing industry and gave its name to the hymn-tune Stockport written by 18th century Stockport organist John Wainwright for the carol Christians awake salute the happy morn. The eight hats depicted in this suite refer to phrases from Wainwrights famous tune.Top Hat QuadrilleBreton Beret - valse melancoliqueMexicanHat DanceSmokey Stetson ShuffleDeerstalkers JigBaseball Cap StompBest Bonnet WaltzCloth Cap Galop
