NEW in 3rd edition: digital audio accompaniment downloads!
Written by legendary composer Sandy Feldstein, this highly effective and fun soprano recorder method addresses the National Standards for Arts Education, and can keep students engaged throughout each lesson.
This book includes playing and writing opportunities to reinforce all of the learning. Most melodies are traditional familiar tunes, some are light classical, some are folk melodies, and there are few original songs as well. Occasionally, original lyrics are put with the familiar tunes. This book includes information on reading notes and rhythms, and some pencil activities/exercises.
Fingerings are given for both Baroque-English and German fingering recorders.
For grade 3 and up
