Recorder for Beginners: The Tudor Way! by Paul Harris – the brand new recorder tutor from Jaywood Press. “If you’d like a method from the beginning, but really firmly in the early music tradition, then this is a very nice place to start” – Sarah Jeffery, Team Recorder "The recorder has, for centuries, been one of the world’s most popular instruments. It was born in medieval times but was extremely popular in Tudor times — King Henry VIII was a very keen player! So, in keeping with the recorder’s popularity in those times, here is a new and fun tutor set (almost entirely) in those wonderfully colourful Tudor times. It takes the recorder player from absolute beginner to about Grade 1 standard. Along this engaging journey, players will meet many characters and experiences from Tudor times and a number of works by contemporary composers (and some maybe just a little bit later, too). The book is written to be for individual, group or class teaching and for all ages. If you’re about to begin this book, I hope you’ll find it most entertaining and enjoyable and I also hope it will initiate an exciting new experience for a great number of new recorder players." – Paul Harris Click here to view the accompanying Teacher's Book.

The Complete Country Dance Tunes from Playford's The Dancing Master is the classic compendium of English country dance tunes. First published in 1651 it went through eighteen editions in almost 80 years. In its day it was the most popular collection of its kind and engendered numerous imitations. The tunes selected by Playford and his successors were taken from many sources and demonstrate the extraordinary richness and vitality of popular melody in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. This book brings together, for the first time under one cover, 535 tunes and their variants from the eighteen original editions. It provides a fund of musical material for performers, whether folk musicians or baroque instrumentalists, and for class and instrumental music teachers. It is also an invaluable reference book for anyone interested in the history of English music.

The author of this volume, the outstanding Hungarian baroque flute and recorder player János Bali, has undertaken no less than to provide a guide for bewildered recorder players; teachers and students, amateurs and professional musicians alike; faced with the extremely intriguing but difficult question: How should baroque pieces be ornamented? The answers are given by contemporary musicians themselves; the collection contains only contemporary ornaments (and richly ornamented pieces and movements) selected from the repertoire of the period between 1550 and 1760, that is, from the late Renaissance, through the various national styles of early and mature baroque, right up to rococo. In the score the original melody of each work or movement and several different ornamented versions of the same melody can be found one below the other, thus the various possible modes of ornamentation can easily be compared. In the extremely valuable and informative introductory study, János Bali provides a basic historical survey of the subject and offers useful practical advice to musicians using the collection; at the end of the volume he includes, almost in their entirety, the tables of ornamentation compiled by G. L. Conforto (1693) and J. J. Quantz (1752).

This arrangement of Telemann’s “Twelve Fantasias” for treble recorder is based on Barenreiter's edition for solo flute. With the exception of Nos 4, 5 & 12 which were transposed up a fourth for the recorder, all other fantasias are transposed up a third following a technique often used in the 18th Century. The Fantasias for flute without bass address themselves less to the virtuoso than to the amateur flutist, who will find everything he wishes in these pieces. Although Telemann himself may have lost track of his works, the many flutists who have perfected their technique and musical interpretation with the help of these lovely Fantasias will never forget them.
