Hi Karen Lee; You'll have to transcribe the music to Bb but there is a
vast store of medieaval music written for the recorder. I suggest "Alle
Psalte" which is 13th cent. Notre Dame school. Michael Praetorius,
Sosato andJohn Dowland. There is a wonderful book called "Gregorian
Chants for Recorders" published by Amsco Music. Almost anything copiled
by Steve Rosenberg would be appropiate. Good Luck John
