Collection: Recorder Books

11 products

Method books and classroom repertoire for teaching recorder, from first notes through to alto.

The Windsongs series runs across six student books, moving from a first three-note tune through Canadian and traditional repertoire and finishing with Alto Odyssey for students changing size. A teacher's guide covers the whole series, with a companion CD.

Recorder Express by Artie Almeida and It's Recorder Time both take a whole-class approach with material designed to be played together rather than practised alone.

The Recorder Resource Kit and Complete Recorder Kit by Denise Gagné are widely used in Canadian elementary programs, and the Complete Recorder Kit includes a CD of accompaniment tracks.

Choosing a book usually means choosing a fingering system at the same time, since the fingering charts inside are written for one or the other. Check which your instruments use before ordering a class set.
