Recorder with CD backing disc.
(S) indicates descant (soprano) recorder and (A) indicates treble (alto) recorder.
For a complete list of the abbreviations I use please click here.
With the notable exception of 'The Baroque Recorder Anthology' this is mostly fairly easy music. There is generally no printed music for the accompaniment (backing track). The order is now by the album title or composer. Christmas music and Ensemble music is at the end of this list.
The 'serious' CD backing discs are listed along with the compositions in the main music pages.

Abide with me
Be Thou my vision
Eternal Father...
Guide me. O Thou great...
Jesus, lover of my soul...
Love divine, all loves...
Now thank we all our God
O praise ye the Lord
O worship the Lord in...
Praise to the Lord the Almighty
The King of love my shepherd...
There is a green hill...
When I survey the wondrous cross |
Amazing Grace
Dear Lord and Father...
Glory to Thee, my God...
Holy, holy, holy,...
Lo, He comes with clouds descending
Morning has broken
O God, our help...
O worship the King
Praise, my soul, the King...
The day Thou gavest...
The Lord's my shepherd
Thine be the glory |

Baroque Recorder Anthology
The discs provided with this series are not in the usual format and some of my clients have had difficulty in using them. Only Vol.1 works well with a CD music player. The other three discs have the backing tracks in mp3 format. This is fine if you are used to this, have an iPod or similar player and have access to a computer. If you don't, you are slightly stuck. If you already have one of these discs try it in your TV's or standalone DVD player... it may well work.
To resolve the mp3 problem I have produced some discs of the mp3 tracks in standard audio CD format that will play on music CD players and computers. If you feel that you need one of these, request one at the time of ordering. (There will be a small charge.)
With Disc 1 all the tracks are in standard music CD format, but there are 55 of them! Some older players will play them, but the high numbers cannot be called up individually. I may be able to help with this issue too.
I have produced a complete contents list for these volumes. For a printer friendly pdf version click here.
