What’s Inside?
“Book One, now in its fourth edition, comprises 11 short lessons from the original publication.
- It systematically introduces fingerings from the C pentatonic scale, continually reinforcing new skills as it expands to F and G pentatonics. A step-by-step process introduces basic recorder skills in a highly interactive context of singing, moving, responding to Kodaly hand signs, echo play, and accompanying on pitched and non-pitched is a key component of the instruction;
Carley’s suggested exercises-presented in clear, incremental steps-make this model accessible for teachers regardless of previous experience. Repertoire is either newly composed or drawn from folk sources.” Leslie Timmons in
