Giuseppe Verdi was een sleutelfiguur in de 19e-eeuwse Italiaanse romantische opera. Zijn werken, vaak gekenmerkt door melodramatische flair, verwierven wereldwijde erkenning, en veel van zijn melodieën nestelden zich diep in de populaire cultuur. Ondanks af en toe kritiek op zijn melodische idiom, vormen Verdi's meesterwerken nog steeds de basis van het operarepertoire.

(Oliver James,Contact Magazine) A novel and comprehensive approach to transferring from the C to F instrument. 430 music examples include folk and national songs (some in two parts), country dance tunes and excerpts from the standard treble repertoire of•Bach, Barsanti, Corelli, Handel, Telemann, etc. An outstanding feature of the book has proved to be Brian Bonsor's brilliantly simple but highly effective practice circles and recognition squares designed to give, in only a few minutes, concentrated practice on the more usual leaps to and from each new note and instant recognition of random notes. Quickly emulating the outstanding success of the descant tutors, these books are very popular even with those who normally use tutors other than the Enjoy the Recorder series.
Critical and historical notes accompany Shakespeare's drama of murder, political ambition, and the persistence of guilt.
