School Music

Laid out in a clear, simple way, Red Hot Recorder Tutor introduces the notes and the basics of music theory in digestible stages. With the free accompanying tracks the children can play along and quickly make progress. They can clap along to the rhythm sessions, and copy the patterns played in the listening exercises.

"Because teachers had found Razzamajazz Recorder useful, I decided to write the Red Hot Recorder Tutor/Method. The recorder is such a wonderfully versatile instrument that I wanted to write a tutor book that taught good technique, but was also fun and motivating. I wrote to lots of recorder teachers and asked them what they would like to see in a new tutor, and tried to provide what was needed." ~ Sarah Watts Details Cover: PaperbackSize: 297mm x 210mm (Landscape)Page count: 32 pages See Resources Tab for downloads.

To make it easier for the new recorder player to practice at home, digital downloads are available in the student book, giving both complete performances and backing tracks only. See Resources Tab for downloads. Forward In Red Hot Recorder Tutor it has been my intention to combine best practice with a fun approach, thereby giving the new player a firm technique on which to develop their skills, while making the actual learning process really enjoyable. I have included lots of pieces with 'feel good' accompaniments, rhythms to clap to, 'tap dance type' music, optional second and third parts for ensemble work right from the start, 'playing by ear' with a CD backing, and even an accompaniment for long-note practice. Red Hot Recorder Tutor comes as two books - one for the pupil which includes all the teaching material, and this one for the teacher which has the piano accompaniments. Red Hot Recorder Tutor is very much in my style of music-making and I will be thrilled if other teachers and their pupils find this book useful and enjoyable.
