One of the more recent but unfortunately short-lived additions to our inventory was the Holzschuh series of solo recorder sheet music publications with recorded CD accompaniment. The concept is similar to the venerable Music Minus One series that we have offered for years: a given title includes the printed sheet music, including both solo part and bass line, plus a CD recording. On the recording, each piece is recorded twice: first with both solo part and accompaniment, and then a second time with only the accompaniment. The Holzschuh catalogue has presently ten titles: four for solo soprano/tenor recorder and six for alto recorder. Most of the titles are late baroque solo music, but several titles are from the early 17th solo repertory and one title offers the conservative and highly-playable music of 20th century German composer Hans Poser. Sadly, the American distributor for these editions has apparently gone out of business, and availability is limited to those few titles that we presently still have in stock.
