Exquisite and challenging, Bach's flute obbligatos underscore the vocal lines of some of his greatest sacred arias. In this book keyboard accompaniments provide a sensitive reduction of the orchestral score, including a full expression of the vocal parts, so that the obbligatos can either be performed as pieces in their own right or used in preparation for full performance. With downloadable recorded backing tracks at A440 and A415, this is an indispensible volume for intermediate and advanced players of both the modern flute and traverso.
