Not only at Christmas time… Marc-Antoine Charpentier’s instrumental “Noëls” from the time of Louis XIV enchant listeners with their elegant dance movements throughout the year. Dagmar Scherschmidt has combined the Noëls sur les instruments, the Noëls pour les instruments and the Agnus Dei from the Messe de Minuit and arranged them for recorder quartet SATB, recorder octet SATB TBGbSb, viol consort and basso continuo ad libitum, which can be freely combined. Especially through the alternation of high and low choirs, Charpentier’s characteristic sound colours are vividly conveyed.

W.A. Mozart überwand mit der Schaffung der "Kleinen Nachtmusik" den traditionellen Serenadentypus der Freiluftmusiken mit gemischten Besetzungen (Bläser / Streicher). Statt dessen komponierte er seine heute wohl bekannteste Musik für ein reines Streicherensemble mit kompositorischen Raffinessen, wie sie in der bisherigen Gebrauchs- und Freiluftmusik nicht üblich waren, da man den Verlust des Unterhaltungscharakters befürchtete. Jean Cassignol setzte bei der Einrichtung für fünf Blockflöten die Sätze eine Quinte höher. Die 2. Stimme wechselt zwischen Sopran- und Altblockflöte, die dritte Stimme zwischen Alt- und Tenorblockflöte. Die Tenorblockflöte 2 (4. Stimme) muss in der Romance (2. Satz) auch einmal Bassblockflöte spielen. Die Stimmen sind einzeln lieferbar: Sopranblockflöte: 4522-SBfl Altblockflöte: 4522-ABfl Tenorblockflöte 1: 4522-TBfl1 Tenorblockflöte 2: 4522-TBfl2 Bassblockflöte: 4522-BBfl

Chorales and motets by old masters for Advent and Christmas for 5-6-part recorder choir. The edition contains pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Johann Crüger, Andreas Hammerschmidt, Leonhard Schröter, Johann Walter and Anonymus, based on five-part chorales and motets as well as four-part chorales with one or two upper voices. It was important to keep the pieces in their original form and only make them playable for recorders by choosing suitable keys. Only in two chorales was it necessary to occasionally change the voices. The voices are available separately. Contents: Advent - Nun kommt der Heiden Heiland - Hosianna dem Sohne Davids - Mit Ernst, o Menschenkinder - Wie soll ich dich empfangen - Übers Gebirg Maria geht Christmas - Lobt Gott, ihr Christen, alle gleich - Gelobet seist du, Jesu Christ - Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her - Fröhlich soll mein Herze springen - Joseph, lieber Joseph mein - Ich steh an deiner Krippen hier - In dulci jubilo - Halleluja! Freuet euch ihr Christen alle New Year - Nun lasst uns gehn und treten - Sprich ja zu meinen Taten - Wie schön leuchtet der Morgenstern

German Dance KV 605 No. 3 Mozart wrote Three German Dances for strings, wind instruments, timpani and bells in 1791. Otto Wolf selected the third dance from this work, whose original diction suggested an arrangement for recorder choir, with the posthorn part being replaced by a soprano metallophone. This makes a work accessible not only to young recorder players, but also to players and listeners alike, who are sure to enjoy its pointed rendition.

Raphael B. Meyer wrote the Irish Suite on behalf of the Swiss ERTA (European Recorder Teachers Association) for a larger recorder formation. The result is a challenging composition that can be practised, but is not short on fun. The traditional Irish music with its simple basic structure and catchy, simple melodies touches pupils and teachers alike. With the Irish Suite, Raphael B. Meyer has created a work in three movements which are designed in such a way that they can be played at different speeds and without ornamentation without the music losing its effect. Individual parts: N 2841 - soprano/sopranino N 2842 - Alto I, II N 2843 - Tenor I, II, III N 2844 - Bass I, II N 2845 - Subbass/major bass in bass clef N 2846 - Great bass in treble clef Irish Suite - sopranino / soprano recorder
