Recorder Express: Soprano Recorder Method for Classroom or Individual Use

Exactly what we ordered

First of all, the cover grabs one's attention, and the pages inside are packed full of practically everything a beginner recorder player needs to know. There are oodles of songs with clever tiny artwork of trains to guide the player along. The fingering chart at the back is helpful, and there is even an activity page to fill in the notes of the C Scale. A CD is available separate from the book, but I didn't order that. For a beginner, the tiny notes with four or five songs on some pages might be a bit too much for a young player to follow. In that this book is geared for the beginner I'd like to see oversized notes and fewer songs per page, keeping in mind the early learner. Otherwise, for an older person who is beginning recorder, this is a great start.

The book came with a damaged cover but the content was perfect good. Easy and clear enough to get started. Just the right amount of materials for an absolute beginner recorder player.

This is an introduction to recorder playing. Outstanding book!!!!

a good books for kids might need to invest in a better book for an adult learner.

All the message & design of the book & details of fingering & notes chart s designed for a child's choice of over 50 standard & traditional songs to learn. A very perfect gift for a special 12-year old!

Really great recorder book for my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders to use. Its supposed to have a play along CD. If mine came with one I don't know what I did with it. There's no built in CD slot in the book so I don't even know if it came with one. Maybe the tracks are online? There is a pretty cool website you can interact with if you have a microphone for your computer.
