"Renaissance Music for Flute & Guitar" by Allan Alexander and Jessica Walsh. There is great music to be found in all times and from all countries. This is what we are always looking for... pieces that surprise us (pleasantly of course), tunes that make us say, "I want to hear that again," and music that we can't stop playing. Allan & Jessica have compiled a tremendous collection of Renaissance and Medieval duos for flute and guitar. If you love playing independent, interesting parts and if you like communicating with your musical partner, this is the book for you.This music captures the feeling of the Medieval and Renaissance times. It comes alive when you play it. During the Renaissance, it was the performers who wrote the music. Often they added variations; they were excited about the melodies. Allan & Jessica bring some of this approach to the music in this book. Good music need not be difficult to play. When doing arrangements, they make sure that the pieces lay well on the instruments. A few of the pieces in this book are composed by Allan & Jessica, because they also love to write. Nothing is more satisfying, nothing gives us greater pleasure than creating a tune that they want to come back to over and over again... and this is truly in the spirit of the Renaissance.
There are almost seventy minutes of music on the CD, and 29 pieces in the book. This book is perfect to take on gigs, or just to play with a friend. The point is, the music is great. You have to play the tunes in this book to appreciate what Allan & Jessica are talking about. The CD will give you insights into the music, and it will be enjoyable to listen to on its own merit.

Customer Comment About This Book:
just bought your music issue "Renaissance Music for Flute & Guitar" today. I am a kind of guy that is constantly search for beautiful music, especially guitar, flute, and piano. I have two kids. The older plays guitar and the younger plays flute. They are 14 and 11 but quite good in the instrument. It have been very few times that I bought a tape or book that I felt worth it. Sometimes I even felt waste the money. But this book of yours including the CD is really worth it. I chose 11 songs out of that I like most: Volta No.1, Bransle Charlotte, A Fancy, A Child's Ronde, A Winter's Ronde, Italiana, I serve a Wothie Ladie, Blind Mary, Adew Dundie, Dance of the Washerwoman, and Kemp's Jig. I am training my kids so that someday they will be able to play like you and Jessica. My kid's guitar teacher said guitar & flute make a very good duet. I agree with that. It is beautiful, especially when I listen to your CD. You guys are doing very good.
