“Wonderful!”
This compilation edited intelligently by Weinzierl and Wachter is simply a wealth of riches. Within the remit 'Romantic', the actual range of styles included is incredibly varied. There is the familiarity of Gaubert at one end of the spectrum to the little known Samuel Jadassohn at the other. There is something for everyone here and this is a book that can be dipped into and enjoyed over many years. It's a wonderful book!
Musical miniatures – originally little compositions for the bourgeois salon – have been compiled for flute and piano whose sole purpose is the joy and pleasure of music-making. The duos are suitable for music lessons, pupil's recitals and, of course, for entertaining music-making at home.
