From Vivaldi's Spring to Dvorák's famous "From the New World" theme, this book and CD offers flautists the chance to play gems of the classical music repertoire that are not too technically challenging for the beginner - medium-grade player. Easy arrangements of famous works, along with selected pieces originally written for the flute are included, each presented as a demonstration performance for listening and again as a "minus one" version for playing along. Live recordings of chamber ensembles, string instruments, guitar, harp and piano will also encourage young musicians to play in ensembles.
