PXTR005 Three Carols - Czech Traditional/B. de La Monnoye

1. Zither Carol
2. Rocking Carol
3. Pat-a-pan

Three very contrasting Christmas Carols here for early grade Flutes and Clarinets. The first of the two traditional Czech tunes is the energetic Zither Carol,  followed by  the more gentle and sentimental Rocking Carol. The third carol is the more robust "Pat-a-pan" by Bernard de La Monneye, first published in 1720. All four parts get a chance for a tune in this festive set, and the pieces are interesting to listen to and satisfying to play (wthout being too difficult!)
