Solos for Flute, Collection 6: British Melodies

These English, Scottish, and Welsh melodies are especially well suited to performance on the modern flute. They also provide excellent material for developing skills in rapid tonguing, extended breath-control, and phrasing. Old favorites include 'Bunessan, ' 'Colonel Bogey, ' 'My Eyes are Fully Open, ' and a few masterpiece solos by Handel and Purcell. Among the newly re-discovered gems are 'Earl Grey, ' 'I Wish You Would Marry Me Now, ' 'Kiss Me Quick My Mother Is Coming, ' and 'Small Birds Sweetly Singing. ' A separate recorder edition is available.
