Review
... an enjoyable and worthy addition (or beginning) to your music library. American Recorder

... will undoubtedly become the standard text for recorder players for years to come ... I would guess that even professional players will find things here that are new to them. Early Music Today

... an excellent starting point for those new to the instrument or amateurs with playing experience who wish to broaden their knowledge. Such readers will come away with a better understanding of the recorders very rich life through the centuries as well as a good idea of the astonishing amount of writing and research of the last four or five decades. Notes

The multiplicity of its authorship, with contributions from seven different personalities, encourages the serious reader to take a far more subjective and thoughtful approach to the recorder and its repertoire than has been past practice. The Recorder Magazine

The Cambridge Companion to the Recorder is one of those marvellous books that you do not have to read at one sitting  if you do not yet own a copy - it is about time you did!. Early Music and Recorders Journal

Product Description
This is the first book to offer a complete introduction to the recorder. Seven contributors from four different countries write on topics such as the recorder and its music through the centuries, the recorder as orchestral instrument, the professional recorder player through history and today, and the phenomenon of the recorder revival. The Companion also contains basic reference material previously unavailable in one volume. A special feature is found in the rich collection of illustrations which in themselves provide a history of the instrument.
