Press Reviews

"There is little doubt that young players will revel in the humour and imagination of Carol Barratt's writing."

".... it is undoubtedly a rewarding acquisition. ... Her stated aim with this book is to encourage the younger player to perform rather than merely play, and this is something that I feel she achieves to good effect."

"Are the pieces any good? Yes - melodic, interesting and accessible, with a mix of folk tunes and Ms Barratt's own compositions - ideal material for the early grade exams."

(Winds, Spring 2004)
