Notes from the Music Room
Following our vocal and rhythm warm-up, we read about the history of the recorder. Recorders were originally folk instruments in the 12th century. During the 16th century, Bach and Handel composed music for the recorder. Today more than 3.5 million recorders are manufactured each year for use in classrooms. We are focusing on playing the notes B, A, and G with a quality tone.
