If you have just gotten started with the bass recorder and want to move to the next level, this is the course for you! Professional recorder player and teacher Tish Berlin will cover basics such as hand and finger position, tonguing, and tone, and instill good habits for continuing to learn on your own or with a teacher. Students will need to purchase the 1986 edition of the Mönkemeyer method for the bass “Das Spiel auf der Bass Blockflöte”.  (This book may be available at Honeysuckle Music, and other sources.) This class is intended for recorder players who have taken an ARS beginning bass class, or for those who have some experience on the bass recorder.
 

Do you need to purchase a bass recorder?  I recommend starting out with a good plastic recorder, rather than a cheap wooden one. Yamaha makes very good plastic recorders. Consider purchasing an instrument from one of our business partners:  

Von Huene Workshop (The Early Music Shop of New England): (617) 277-8690
Honeysuckle Music: (651) 644-8545
Lazar’s Early Music: (770) 366-8596

This class is available at no charge to ARS members, only. When registering, use the email address associated with your ARS membership. If you are not an ARS member, you may click HERE to join.  These classes are limited in size to allow for interaction between the teacher and students. If you have already taken two or more of our Second Level classes, please wait until one week prior to the start of class to sign up, in order to allow a larger number of people to take advantage of these opportunities.
