Why The Recorder?
The recorder is a very old woodwind instrument. As a fairly simple instrument to learn how to properly play, it is an excellent tool for children to begin reading and playing music on the musical staff. The recorder is also a great transition to other woodwind instruments. Lastly, it is fun!
If you are interested in continuing your recorder practice on your own, below are the soprano recorders and repertoire books I suggest. Students will have the option to purchase a recorder through the school in the fall, shipping costs waived. REMEMBER: In class we play the Soprano Recorder. The Garklein, Soprano, and Tenor Recorders share the same fingering. The Sopranino, Alto, and Bass have a different fingering than we've learned in class.
