Faune Chambers
 Three Great Orchestral Works in Full Score: Prelude A LApres-Midi DUn Faune, Nocturnes, La Mer (Dover Orchestral Scores) $19.95 Sure, there can occasionally be problems with reprints of older editions (and I've seen some quite poor ones at that, notably with Belwin-Kalmus!); however, this one of Dover (as well as their reprint of the same composer's opera "Pellas et Mlisande") is not one I'd slight in the least. My copy has very few problems indeed. I recommend this one unreservedly!  Orchestral Excerpts for Flute $18.98 I own the book of the same title of excerpts, though expensive it was worth it. I was considering not buying this CD since I have recording of the pieces anyway but I am glad I did. Not only is it convienient to have all the excerpts on once CD but Jeanne has a wonderful clear sound makes this a joy to listen to. Having it isolated to better hear what she is talking about is immensely helpful. It's not a fun to listen to recording, it is meant for study, but if you are a flutist learning your major orchestral solos it is just as good as having your teacher walk you through the piece. Perhaps more helpful as a second view is always good to know. |
