By Amanda Oosthuizen and Jemima Oosthuizen

Easy Traditional Duets Two Descant (Soprano) Recorders is a collection of lively traditional pieces from around the world plus several familiar Christmas songs arranged for beginner recorder players of a similar standard. These are short pieces, most are one page in length, with straightforward rhythms and in easy keys. The tunes are easiest at the start where notes range from low D to D2. The tunes become harder as the book progresses and include notes up to second octave G. Great for playing with friends, in lessons, entertaining the family and even busking.

Hi there - I'm just emailing you to tell you how much I love your Oboe duet books, especially the vast range of Christmas music I have all of them
I'm an oboe and double bass teacher (I know ) based in Dublin, and I am very much a Christmas enthusiast. I'm known among my students for wearing Christmas socks 365 days a year (they've checked )
I've taken on some double bass students this year, and I'll be buying your double bass Xmas duets to play with them. Given the brilliance of the oboe books, I'm really looking forward to it. Many thanks and keep up the good work Eimear

Hello - I love the arrangements We just played some today Have a lovely Christmas and thanks for providing beginner bassoonists with some great music Pauline

Hi there I have been really impressed with your books I have been wishing there was such a thing as instrument specific theory books, and now I've found them. I've also been very pleased with your Christmas books. I intend to get your whole selection of flute books- they are excellent. I just wanted to tell you how great I think your books are Thank you ever so much- I will continue to use you and to recommend you to others xxx Janine

May I say how pleased I was to find that you now produce a piano accompaniment to go with the flute/clarinet parts. I already have your flute/clarinet music which is proving to be most useful and now that I have the piano part it will make our playing even better. Many thanks. I look forward to placing further orders with you in due course. Sylvia

Very pleased to have found your Christmas songs for flute. Delighted with the Duets for Flute 21 Christmas songs and the 50+ Classics for Flute. The selections in both cases were very appealing - so many of the tunes I had hoped for gathered together in one book. Sharon

I am loving your books. Jessi
