Collection Time Pieces for Treble/Alto Recorder, Vol.1 Music through the Ages Instrumentation: Treble/A-rec-Pf Composer: Collection Editor: Bennetts, K. & Bowman, P. ISMN: 978-1-86096-294-3 Details: All four of these volumes include wonderful selections, representative of many historical eras and of many 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) Contents: Traditional: Sakura, Sakura Traditional: Kalevala Melody Traditional: The Nutting Girl Machaut: Douce dame jolie (ca.1340) Anonymous: La rocha el fuso (ca.1530) Byrd: La volta from Fitzwilliam Virginal Book (ca.1610) Lully: Minuet (ca.1670) Charpentier: Prelude from Te Deum , H.146 (ca.1690) Mozart: Allegro K.3 (1762) Shield: The Ploughboy from The Farmer (1787) Haydn: Poco adagio from String Quartet Opus 76 No.3 (1797) Schubert: Entr'acte from Rosamunde (1823) Schumann: Melody from Album for the Young Opus 68 No.1 (1848) Grieg: Solveig's Song from Peer Gynt (1875) Mahler: Theme from Symphony No.1 (1888) MacDowell: To a Wild Rose from Woodland Sketches (1896) Kid Ory: Muskrat Ramble (1926) Britten: Fishing Song from Friday Afternoons Op.7 (1935) Bartok: Sorrow from For Children Vol.2 (1946); Bennetts: Chalk and Cheese (2006) Bennetts: Fancy (2006) Bennetts: Colourful G (2006)
