Recorder Solo - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1051006 Composed by John Turner. 20th Century,Classical. Individual part. 20 pages. Forsyth Brothers Ltd #655335. Published by Forsyth Brothers Ltd (A0.1051006). The Four Diversions were written by recorder virtuosi, composer and arranger, John Turner, in 1968/9, and they have since become one of the best known works in the recorder repertoire. The Waltz was composed first, as a Christmas present for a pupil, Jane Hall, and the set as a whole was dedicated to David Munrow and his wife Gill. The first performance of the complete set was given by David Munrow and Christopher Hogwood at Adlington Hall, Macclesfield, shortly after they were completed. The beguiling Waltz is preceded by a gentle but active Pastoral. The other two movements are a Celtic sounding Aubade and an alert and dashing Hornpipe with a central cantabile section in varying quintuple rhythms. Other recorder works by John Turner include Six Bagatelles, A Short Sprint, Serenade, and Three Salutes and a Whirl.
