Note: These online sessions are once per week on Tuesday evenings, 6:00 p.m. ET
The recorder has a reputation as an easy instrument to play.Those who already play, though, usually agree that it’s an easy instrument to start, but a difficult instrument to master.If you’ve gotten past your first few notes and are ready to accelerate your progress, you’re probably ready for Recorder Therapy.We will take one or two topics per session (all suggested by class participants) and delve into them.We’ll approach each topic from the most basic level, but we’ll also look beyond where we are and prepare for applying these skills in a more challenging way.We’ll learn details that really matter to you.Sessions will be split between interactive discussions and playing instruments.Based on topics, music could be exercises, etudes, solos, or ensembles.The class will be presented for both soprano and alto recorder players simultaneously.Participants will be encouraged to have and use both, but progress won’t be hindered if you play only one size at this time.
This six-week course is $90.All music examples will be provided.Participants should acquire materials before the first class session.
Required materials:
Music stand
At least a soprano or alto; both a soprano AND alto, if possible (tenor in place of soprano is OK)
Tuesday evenings for 6 weeks, beginning March 1 and ending April 5. Six week class is $90, but discounted to $80 if signing up for multiple class offerings.
