History of the recorder, musical instrument.
Close up of a white dial telephone in front of a book shelf which rings. It is answered by a man wearing a brown polo neck who sits in a wooden chair. A girl (sitting opposite) gets up from her armchair and walks over to the table where he is sitting. Tree lined road. A white Citroen 2CV car drives along and turns into a driveway marked "Jesses". The car parks in front of a detached brick house and the man and the girl get out (they've come to see Carl Dolmetsch). Shot of the stable block which is attached to the house and has been converted into living accommodation. Inside Carl Dolmetsch picks up a wooden tenor (I think!) recorder and talks about it. It is by Puis Bresson (?) - a French maker in London. He shows them an original "tutor" bought in auction at the same time dating from 1700 (it looks like a little book made of cardboard). He hands it to the girl who looks at it. The three have a riveting conversation about Carl Dolmetsch's father. Close up of the tutor - "The Compleat Flute Master". The pages are turned to reveal instructions and fingering diagrams. Carl plays a quick burst of "Greensleeves" on the recorder. He witters on a bit about Shakespeare and Henry VIII (who apparently had 76 recorders - large and small) before he plays the rest of "Greensleeves" - the version which they would have known. Doletsch picks up a modern version of the recorder and talks about the differences in the instrument. He plays a classical piece on it - close up of his fingers moving.
