About this title

Synopsis

The NEW Nine-Note Recorder Method: Easy Music for Beginners (Soprano Edition) is designed as the first book for any beginner. Children and adults will learn to read music and to play the affordable recorder. This program works well in the classroom setting and in the home.

This method book uses only the 9 easiest notes to play. The unique fold-out fingering chart, with realistic graphics showing which holes to cover, may be visible at all times. This allows the beginner to quickly refer to the fingering chart without the interuption of flipping to another page.

This method book also features a built-in easel for table or desktop. This makes the book particularly useful in the classroom or any setting where there is no music stand.

This contains 125 songs, including over 80 duets: traditional children's songs, folk songs and dances, classics, early music, multicultural songs (including a dozen Hispanic songs), and Christmas carols (11 total with mix of secular and religious). Many songs have lyrics.

Standard music notation in large print. Simple rhythms.

Music theory and concepts, practice tips, tips for playing more musically, classroom tips, cross-curricular suggestions, historical context, and graphics enhance this method. For those who want to go on, there is a Complete Fingering Chart (2 octaves with accidentals) on the last page. Note: This book is for SOPRANO or tenor recorder. There will soon be an alto edition available.
