DC002 A Little Book of British Birds - Carr, J. (illus. Heather, J.)

£12.99

A delightful volume of flute duets by award-winning theatre composer Jason Carr, with illustrations by Jane Heather.
These twelve engaging pieces perfectly capture the character of a varied collection of feathered friends, from blackbird to hawk, with cameo appearances by the occasional snail or earthworm!
The duets give the chance for a less experienced flautist to play alongside a teacher or more advanced player. The easier part often enjoys the tune, with the second part providing colourful accompaniments, painting a musical picture of each bird.
Skilfully crafted pieces, together with charming artwork, make this much more than just another duet book!
