Suite for Treble Recorder and String Orchestra - Rawsthorne, Alan - Score and Parts
Catalogue No: FRA01
Alan Rawsthorne's ground-breaking suite for recorder, here arranged by John McCabe with string orchestra accompaniment.
One of the first works of the modern recorder repertoire (contemporary with the well-known Sonatinas by Berkeley and Walter Leigh) to be discovered and published. The four movements are vintage Rawsthorne, suitably spiced with echoes of the recorder’s heyday. A stately Sarabande leads directly to a Fantasia on the ballad Wooddy-Cock. There follows a graceful and flowing Air, and finally a rollicking Jig. The work is of only moderate difficulty. A version is also available for recorder and piano is also available.
Includes score and one copy of each part. More parts are available from Forsyth for purchase or hire.
