THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION TO THE RECORDER edited by John Mansfield Thomson "For the recorder player wishing to acquire an insight into the many aspects of our instrument and learn to see facts not only as 'how to do' but as an inspiration, The Cambridge Companion to the Re-corder is warmly recommended" Daniel Bruggen of the Amsterdam Loeki Stardust Quartet.

Other chapters bring together basic reference material hitherto unavailable in one volume. A special feature of the book is its rich collection of illustrations, some of them published for the first time, which provides a history of the evolution of the recorder along with an intriguing demon-stration of its changing role in musical life. Written to expand the horizons of all those who love the in-strument - amateur or professional 238 pages
