Concertino for Treble Recorder, Strings and Harp
Buy at SHEETMUSICDIRECT or SHEETMUSICPLUS
Written in 1990, the Concertino For Treble Recorder, Strings And Harp, was requested by recorder player Ruth Whatley. Ruth and I were at the London College of Music together during this time. We worked together to rehearse the piece and eventually it was given a run-through by a group of string players and harpist, Alice Trentham (also at the college with us at the time). It still awaits its premiere! One day I hope I can post up a recording of this beautiful piece.
A friend who attended its “play through” described it as being like “the South American Rain Forests”, which I thought was a beautiful, and very fitting description.
Duration: Approximately 15 minutes
All of the parts are challenging so this is not a piece for junior players.
