Description:

Solo Treble Recorder

The Lesser Twayblade is a type of orchid, a miniature plant, found in Britain almost exculsively in Scotland, unlike it's much commoner and more robust relative the Twayblade Orchid which can be found plentifully throughout Great Britain. It is very dainty and sweet and discreet in colour. This work for treble recorder, harp and strings is in one movement and owes something to Debussy and Ravel and, like the plant, is dainty and sweet. A reduction for recorder and piano is also available (Catalogue number GM025).
An excellent performance, with the leading recorder soloist John Turner, is available on an ASV CD.
Duration: 6 minutes
A PACK comprises one full score, string parts 4/4/3/4/2 and any wind, brass and percussion parts.
