Elfsong solos and duos for recorder
"What makes the recorder beloved by faeries? Just like the faeries, the recorder is ancient, dating back to a time when all the world was green, when it was easy for faeries to hide and play their elf songs unseen and uninterrupted. The recorder.... is delicate and nimble and slightly mischievous just like the faeries themselves. It is stealthy and hides easily in a pocket or beneath a faerie's wing. It is lightweight and travels well; thus it can emerge in unexpected places. Yet its songs may cast their spell across heather, woods, and glen and speak even to the birds."
(from Dorothea Barth's 2008 article, Finding the Faerie's Voice, published in the Autumn 2008 issue of Faerie Magazine)
Finding the Faerie's Voice includes 20 original elfsong solos (in seasonal suites) and five duos for a Woodland Wedding.
