Music for Children series

Supplement

By Isabel McNeill Carley

Book

49 pages

Part of a series of 3 books designed to provide repertoire (pentatonic and diatonic) for beginning and intermediate soprano recorder (SR) players. Pieces are musically demanding yet rewarding, sequentially arranged, and parallel to the Orff Schulwerk. Most of the pieces are intended to be both played and danced. Simple accompaniments for various combinations of Orff instruments with cello and guitar are provided. Like Part One's pentatonic section, Part Two is arranged in order of difficulty.
