FANTASTIC book!,
By Jessica "Patchwork Girl" (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Recorder Guide: An Instruction Method for Soprano and Alto Recorder, Including Folk Melodies from Around the World (Plastic Comb)
I found this book in a used bookstore & compared it with another recorder instruction book that I have (from http://oakmeadow.com). Both books teach the notes in pretty much the same order, but this book also teaches ALTO recorder, right along with soprano... if you already know how to play soprano, and want to learn Alto, it really helps to have the soprano music notes alongside the alto...The lessons are very clear & the songs are nice...

The Recorder Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Recorder Guide: An Instruction Method for Soprano and Alto Recorder, Including Folk Melodies from Around the World (Plastic Comb)
This is an excellent introduction to the recorder. One need not know anything to get started. A great project to work through with your kids! It uses nursery songs and music we all know, in simple arrangements, including solos, duets and trios, for soprano and alto recorder.

This review is from: The Recorder Guide: An Instruction Method for Soprano and Alto Recorder, Including Folk Melodies from Around the World (Plastic Comb)
If you want to learn the recorder this is a great book to start with. It teaches both soprano and alto recorder and has some wonderful folk tunes from around the world. It includes a short introduction into the mechanics of music, great for those who don't already read music. I bought this book twenty years ago, and I have been playing recorder ever since. (I even had to purchase a new edition recently.)
