*Forty Studies* for Treble Recorder. The studies are numbered but there is no tempo markings or titles. These are beautiful works to perform and practise and through key signatures up to two sharps and five flats. Great for getting your fingers moving and your brain thinking.

Frederick II, known as Frederick the Great, was the eldest surviving son of Frederick William I and Sophia Dorothea of Hanover, sister of George II of England. Born in Berlin in 1712, Frederick demonstrated an early interest and talent in music and French literature that created strife with his stern father. The "barracks King" did not appreciate the artistic leanings of his son. 

Later in life it was said that 'Frederick's flute sonatas are musically engaging. Along with the sonatas of Quantz and C. P. E. Bach, they represent the spirit of experimentation in the North German school preceding the Classical sonatas of Haydn and Mozart'.
