Summary of this Method
Celtic - Play Along Alto Recorder features 8 easy to intermediate play-alongs based on traditional tunes from the major Celtic regions. This book is ideal for alto recorder players looking to expand their repertoire with well-known melodies, while developing a regular and motivating practice routine through the "play-along" concept.
Throughout the pages, you will find a varied selection of styles and moods, allowing you to work on tempo stability, precise attacks and the continuity of the musical line. The repertoire includes: De-Sul Vyttyn (traditional Cornish), The New Rigged Ship (traditional Scottish), Beth yw'r Haf i Mi (traditional Welsh), Tabhair dom do Lamh (traditional Irish), Danse Macabre (traditional Breton), The Atholl Highlanders (traditional Scottish), Merch Megan (traditional Welsh) and The Forgotten Highland (traditional Irish).
With this approach, the alto recorder becomes the perfect instrument for exploring the colors of Celtic music: lively dance rhythms, characteristic accents, natural breathing and ornaments suggested by the style. An excellent resource for playing independently, leading a lesson or preparing an authentic and warmly resonant musical performance.
