Summary of This Collection
Sarah Jeffery, known in the recorder world notably through her YouTube channel "Team Recorder," brings together here a selection of her favorite pieces for soprano (tenor) recorder and piano. The volume offers a true journey through eras and styles: from medieval dance (estampie) to Renaissance dances, Baroque movements to Romantic adaptations, not forgetting modern pieces, all designed to provide immediate playing pleasure while developing musicianship, articulation, and sense of style.
Each piece is designed to highlight the recorder's melody above a clear and musical piano accompaniment. The chosen arrangements and works allow practice of breathing, rhythmic precision, and expressiveness, with balanced writing suitable for rehearsals, auditions, and educational concerts. The audio tracks and videos provide practical support: reference listening, accompaniment for practice, and advice to refine interpretation.
