Reviews
I recently became interested in playing musical instruments. I purchased numerous musical items such as two Chinese Flutes, two harmonicas, two kazoos, and two recorders. I also purchased numerous musical instruction manuals. Alfred’s Teach yourself to Play Recorder by Morty Manus is one of several manuals I purchased to help me learn how to play the recorder.I found the instructions fairly easy to follow; however, since I had never played an instrument in my youth, learning to read music was somewhat of a challenge. Fortunately, this is a beginner’s manual and the instructions are clear and simple. This 64 page text is organized into short sections and a CD also comes with this manual. Some of the areas covered in this volume include the following:Getting started, choosing an instrument, producing tone, a mini-music lesson, playing the note of B, A, G, middle C, high D, playing G A B C D, playing low F, playing low E, playing F sharp and numerous other music lessons. This is not the type of manual one can quickly skim over. In order to learn the material you must slowly follow and practice each section on the recorder which takes time. It takes patience and discipline to learn any musical instrument, but this text along with some instructions from a music teacher will produce good results.Rating: 4 Stars. Joseph J.
