Recorder from the Beginning Book 1 - Full Color Edition | Easy Beginner Recorder Method for Kids Ages 7 to 11 |Sheet Music with Step by Step Music Instruction for Classroom Learning and Home Practice

I love this book, its easy to read and follow and there are a lot of songs to try

Not impressed with the songs, they're pretty silly. Using this book with a YouTube follow along. So far my daughter is enjoying it. Really good for a beginner, detailed instructions

This curriculum is perfect for my first and second graders and I was excited to get the book/ CD combination, only to discover that the CD track titles do not match the book song titles – for instance, page 13 (Gypsy Dance) is track 12 (Three Giraffes). The track titles must belong to the old edition. Also, the first track, "Be Happy", must be to tune to, but the B note an octave lower than what you will play on the first song "Little Fly" ... maybe track 1 is being played on an alto recorder? My main disappointment is that the track titles do not match the song titles ...and though the accompaniments are very good, and each includes an Intro, there is no count-off for the initial practice play through for each song. Wish they had taken a little more care when publishing the new addition. Publisher needs to update the track titles to match the song titles. I play the CD in Windows media Player and have been able to edit the track titles to match the book.

great

As a homeschooling mom with no prior knowledge, I am happy to be able to easily use this book.

If you are beginning to learn to play the recorder, this book is for you. It teaches the basics and is easy to understand and follow.

VERY basic. Good for young children under the age of about eight. I bought this book because I also have the alto book by the same author which is much much much better for an adult to learn.

The Kids and I really like this book!

Great for beginners and a good price

As expected. Good price. Delivered quickly

In questo libro ho trovato diversi materiale da poter usare (scuola primaria 8-9-10 anni). Inizia con le note si-la-sol, introduce fin da subito le crome, poi passa subito all'uso della mano destra. É un metodo di lavoro impostato diversamente rispetto a quelli che uso, ma non é affatto male, inoltre ha delle canzoni diverse dal solito e con delle belle basi

This is a very basic book for learners with instructions that are easy to understand. There are some fun tunes that I enjoy practicing regularly as there is quite a bit of variety included after every new note taught. This book in conjunction with the more detailed 'First Book of the Recorder' by Philip Hawthorne makes my practice sessions far more interesting and fun. Definitely recommend using additional beginner books along with this one. The cover page arrived with a split corner so this is probably not a brand new book. Fixable with a little glue. Other than that, it's still a good book to have on hand and am quite glad I got it.

As a professional advanced tenor and bass recorder player I found this book helpful for people who are first starting out beginners but the songs are too extremely easy you just have to study and learn the notes I found this helping at first but since I play the tenor and bass recorder and I am an professional advanced player who has played several instruments like piano,drums,violin,tenor and bass recorder,flute,Congo drum,guitar I need more advance professional books
