Swingin 'Ballad & Boogie enriches the repertoire of more modern works for recorder quartet (Treble, treble, tenor, bass). As in other works by Hansdieter Meier, "brisk-modern pop style" combines with the properties of the recorders in a catchy way. Both in the vocal ballad and in the boogie, a variation theme previously used by Hansdieter Meier (see N2648 and N2668) is taken up and further developed for this composition. Both pieces are suitable for the podium, but also for teaching.
A version for string quartet (N2889) is also available and can be combined with the edition for recorder ensemble.
