Pussycat in Paradise

Lance Eccles
Pussycat in Paradise
For soprano recorder and piano
Orpheus Music, OMP 227,
This set of three pieces would suit a player of about grade three standard. The first, The Pussycat' is quite jolly in character, and is contrasted by the following more lyrical The Nightingales of Paradise'. The final piece is titled 'The Little Antichinus' and contains some more difficult passagework with plenty of accidentals to get the brain and fingers working.
Pussycat in Paradise could be a useful addition to the repertoire for this level.
