Recorder from the Beginning by John Pitts. Recommended for children. This series has been re-vamped with more tunes and coloured pictures. Book 1 is the least changed, with Book 2 and Book 3 progressively more different. There are matching books for teachers and pupils books with a bundled CD. (The CDs are good!) | ||||

| Treble Recorder. | ||||
The New Full Colour Treble Recorder from the Beginning book retains some of the original tunes and includes treble and descant duets. It ends with a clear full fingering chart for descant and treble recorders. While primarily aimed at young descant players moving to the treble it includes enough theory to be suitable for those (usually adults) who are playing the recorder for the first time. Both will find the material valuable and the presentation attractive.This edition deserves to be a 'winner'. | ||||

Recorder Playing by Steve Rosenberg | ||||
| This is a straight forward and well thought out method with an emphasis on early music. The tunes are good (definitely no 'jingles'!) and there are many duets. The material goes up to G above the stave, with some 'black notes' omitted. There is though, a full fingering chart. | ||||
