Press
There is a broad cross-section of 20th century composers, with several short works which might well grace a recitral programme. This is a 'good value' volume, with some really interesting music unknown to players on both sides of the pond.
The Boosey & Hawkes Flute anthology has much to offer the intermediate to advanced level player, providing a selection of interesting material outside of the standard flute repertoire. It promises hours of enjoyment, challenges and rewards.
Definitely worth looking at, this is a really good collection of Flute pieces from the Romantic era to 20th century that could add to any grade7+ student's music shelf. This is a very welcome publication, it is superb value for money. Thanks Boosey & Hawkes.
