This volume contains arrangements of popular themes by the great composers, thereby filling a gap in the recorder literature between the Baroque and modern periods. Drawing on the large body of 19'â?? century arrangements (mainly for flute), the volume is more than entertaining in its own right. For the first time it enables the expressivity, phrasing and modulatory richness of Classic and Romantic music to be transferred to the recorder.

Intermezzo-Szene bearbeitet fur Flotengruppe, Metallophon und Schlagwerk von A. Rosenstengel. Diese Komposition gehoret zu seinen bekannt testen Orchesterwerken. Eine echt orientalische Atmosphare beherrscht dieses Werk. Die Kameltreiber kommen allmahlich naher, die Rufe der Bettler nach Gaben werden erhort. Die schone Prinzessin tritt auf, von ihren Dienerinnen begleitet. Die Prinzessin bleibt stehen um sich an den Gauklern und Schlangenbeschworen zu ergotzen. Der Kalif schreitet jetzt uber die Markt und unterbricht die Unterhaltung. Die Prinzessin macht sich zum Aufbruch bereit und die Karawane setzt ihre Reise fort. Die Motive der Prinzessin und der Kameltreiber hort man noch in der Ferne und der Marktplatz wird wieder einsam. Scene d'intermede pour groupe des Flutes a bec, Vibraphone et Percussion arrangee par A. Rosenstengel du morceau Orchestral original par Albert W. Ketelbey. Une atmosphere orientale se repand de ce morceau. Les chameliers approchant lentement du marche, on entend dans le tumulte les mendiants reclamer leur 'Backchiche'. La belle princesse entouree de ses servantes fait son apparition et s'arrete a regarder les jongleurs et charmeurs des serpents. L'arrive du Calife interrompt l'entrain du marche, la princesse prepare son depart et les chameliers continuent leur chemin. Les themes de la princesse et des chameliers s'eteignent dans la lointain et la marche devient desert. Intermezzo scene for Recorder/Flute group, Vibraphone and Percussion arranged by A. Rosenstengel from the original Orchestral piece by Albert W. Ketelbey. An oriental atmosphere pervades this work. The cattle-drivers slowly approach the market; the cries of beggars are heard across the bustle. The beautiful princess enters carried by her servants - she stays to watch the jugglers and snake-charmer. The Caliph now passes through the market and interrupts the entertainment, the princess prepares to depart and the caravan resumes its journey as the sounds of the Persian Market fade into the distance.
