Description

“All four of these volumes include wonderful selections, representative of many historical eras and many different genres within each era … These books become especially valuable as they contain music representing styles that are often not included in the education of young recorder students … Considered as a whole, this series really hit home with me, since music students on any instrument at any level of instruction should be developing a knowledge of stylistic distinctions of the various musical eras.” — Sue Groskreutz, for American Recorder (January 2009)
