The recorder is the most widely taught instrument in schools. For the majority of children, it is their first introduction to playing and reading music. This book is one of a scheme designed for pre-reading using E, G, A, B and high C not
A really good little guide for children learning to play the recorder. I really enjoyed this book and can see how it would be very useful for the young musician. There are various simple songs throughout the text, as well as hints and tips about how to read music, different styles of playing, and how to play duets and rounds. Some of the print is hard to read, however. Some of the hints are contained in mid-brown lozenge shapes on the page, with the wording in a medium-red, which can be painful on the eye.
