This collection of pieces from the world around comes with an equally marvelous CD, accomplished by professional recorder players in a professional studio. The recordings give teachers a clear understanding of the arrangements and how satisfyingly they can be done with three recorders. The CD is a delight all on its own and provides a rich enhancement of a well-done book of music for recorders, suitable for upper grades students and recorder groups, too. Rarely can a teacher find such a collection arranged for simplicity of execution in a classroom for students and teachers to enjoy.  Multiculturalism is best expressed, perhaps through the expressive music of a culture. Understanding and playing the music from different cultures, so sensitively arranged, can enhance a youngsters comprehension of history, geography, and the universally human.
