A small, but representative collection of well-known and lesser-known beautiful melodies from the Balkans. The carefully-chosen melodies offer a rich, enjoyable and varied book. The arrangements and other adaptations (keys, ornaments, etc.) have been introduced to make this beautiful South-Eastern European music more suitable for performance on the recorder. It is recommended to repeat each piece 3-4 times because the melodies (like all folk songs in the world) are very short. Includes access to online audio and a downloadable pdf of the piano accompaniment.
