THE definitive disc of music for recorder and guitar! As well as old favourites such as Greensleeves and the Van Eyck Comagin Divisions, this CD includes the two most popular works in the recorder and guitar repertoire, both known and played the world over - John Golland's New World Dances and John Duarte's Un Petit Jazz, here given in authoritative and ebullient performances by the players for whom these works were composed.

John Turner is one of the leading recorder players of today, and has premiered over 400 works for his instrument. Both of his two recent concerto discs with the Royal Ballet Sinfonia, under Gavin Sutherland, have received critical acclaim, one of them being Editor's Choice in Gramophone Magazine.

Neil Smith left behind the world of pop to forge a career as one of Britain's leading classical guitarists.
