Bärenreiter Eine Zeitreise vom Mittelalter

This is a really imaginative anthology featuring a selection of well known and unfamiliar pieces from the mediaeval “ la Rotta” to Alan Davis’s charming contemporary miniatures - think Bartók meets lyrical jazz. There are many baroque favourites and a couple of pieces by the talented Irish harpist O Carolan, too. The second half of the book contains duets for soprano, soprano and alto, and soprano and tenor. In addition to this, many pieces have accompaniments to download and recordings to listen to. Useful notes on the pieces are included at the back of the book. I thoroughly recommend it.
The only humorous downside is the incorrect translation of “The Voice of the Turtle” by “DIe Stimme der Schildkröte”. I think turtle dove is what the original is getting at!!!
