Hi Everyone,

A friend's friend will be visiting next month and she's an excellent 
alto recorder player. I'm trying to find some music for us to play 
together. Can anyone be so kind to send me some pdf's for baroque lute 
and alto recorder? What about flute? Can the recorder play most baroque 
flute music or is the range of the flute to broad?

Thanks, in advance, for all your help.

Ken Brodkey

Not without major surgery on most flute parts.  The alto recorder bottoms out at first-space F, while the flute goes down to D or C.

what about the Baron concerto in d minor for BL and Recorder?
The four Haim chamber sonatas are also good, and could be edited to cover the missing bass notes as they might be covered in the lute part anyway. The Haim (?Haym) are published by The Lute Society.
