Sinfonie No. 4 was originally composed as the overture to The Shepherd's Lottery, a pastoral opera first performed in 1751...Herrmann has retained the original key of in F Major, assuring a comfortable fit on recorders. Intermediates will have little trouble with either Allegro, at reasonable tempos.' - Early Music Newsletter of the NY Recorder Guild -- 'This Symphony is a favorite with upper intermediate groups to which I have introduced it, but they advise that it is best played one-on-a-part....Great fun to sight-read and excellent for working on ensemble techniques.' - American Recorder (November 2006)
