Easy Echoes and Excellent Ears
"Easy Echoes and Excellent Ears" is a collection of fun to play warm-ups for young recorder players.
Based on Artie Almeida’s technique of beginning each class or lesson with echo-style warm-ups, this book begins with simple sequences and get progressively more difficult to quickly get students' ears and fingers working. Nine reproducible warm-ups are included in the collection. The first six warm-ups are relatively short and easy. They are based on the notes B, A, G, BA, AG, and BAG. The last three warm-ups are longer and become more difficult. They feature the notes BAG, BAGC'D', low D, and low EBAG.
The enclosed performance/accompaniment CD includes three recordings at three different tempi for these more difficult exercises. Lesson plan strategies and suggestions from Artie Almeida are also included. Lessons may be printed or projected.
