Description
Unbeaten Tracks (Oboe) introduces contemporary pieces of standard and new to unusual repertoire to the Intermediate oboe player (Grade 4-7), and is paired with piano accompaniment, offering both challenge and reward in equal measure. This book, edited by Sarah Francis, presents 8 a kaleidoscopic mix of styles by some of today's most talented composers and are undoubtedly destined to become standard repertoire.
