That inventiveness is evident in the imaginative and eloquent music in this collection. Among the melodies are a Portuguese troubadour?s ?Song for a Friend? written almost 800 years ago, John Dowland?s ?Midnight?, silenced from the mid-1600's until the discovery of Margaret Board?s Lute Book in 1970, and a beautiful and haunting song written by a Scottish Lady.

Par HOLENKO JOHN. This collection includes over 70 compositions from the Renaissance presented as melodies with accompanying chord changes. This simple format makes the material suitable for flute. The music includes some well-known Renaissance melodies such as \'Greensleeves\' and \'La Folias\', along with rarer dance pieces and song melodies. Some of these melodies come from as early as the 1400s and others as late as the 1600s. The music in this book is excellent for flutists looking to expand their repertoire, build an early music ensemble, or for instructional purposes. The book also comes with a few \'Grounds\' (jamming chord progressions), rhythmic accompaniment ideas and performance notes. / Date parution : 2022-06-08/ Recueil / Flûte Traversière

Many of the melodies in this book are more than nine hundred years old; yet these pieces are as vibrant, as exciting, and as seductive as they were centuries ago. This music is fun to play. It’s addictive. You will find yourself humming it, and you’ll come back to play these pieces again and again. Each piece in this collection has its own powerful personality. Many of the Cantigas have an indefinable feel we have not heard in music from other periods. . . It’s like a texture that fills the room, it permeates the air and once inhaled, it paints pictures in your mind. You hear it and you feel it down to your toes. This is music that follows you and begs to be playedagain and again. If you are an intermediate player, you will find that most of these high-quality pieces are readily accessible. If you are a professional, you will find this book to be a resource that you will draw on repeatedly. If you just like to play for yourselves, it will be a great source of entertainment. For us, this collection is all of the above. These pieces work for concerts, for weddings, and for restaurants. This is some of our favorite music, and we hope that you have as much fun playing it as we do./ Recueil / Flûte Traversière et Guitare
