(String Duet). Designed for violinists familiar with first position and comfortable reading basic rhythms, each two-page arrangement in this collection includes a violin 1 and violin 2 part, with each taking a turn at playing the melody for a fun and challenging ensemble expereince. Songs include: Beauty and the Beast * Can You Feel the Love Tonight * Colors of the Wind * Do You Want to Build a Snowman? * Hakuna Matata * How Far I'll Go * I'm Wishing * Let It Go * Some Day My Prince Will Come * A Spoonful of Sugar * Under the Sea * When She Loved Me * A Whole New World * and more.
Exciting, familiar music by Beethoven, Handel, Purcell, Ravel, Verdi, Tchaikovsky, Bizet, Debussy, Saint-Saëns and many more, arranged especially for treble/alto recorder players of around Grade 1-4 standard, starting with the easiest and adding to our 50+ Greatest Classics for Treble Recorder. Most of these melodies duplicate those in our 'Learn Recorder through Famous Classics' so if you have that book, you will not require this one. Notes range between low F and high D, a few are easier, and several go up to high F and are not intended for complete beginners. Giving a taste of the music (not the entire banquet), the shortest are just three lines and the longest an entire page. Notes are large and easy to read. All are in easy keys. Fun to play, ideal for entertaining the family, also great for sight reading practice. Includes interesting musical facts, glossary, fingering chart, and a soundtrack is free to download from the website.
