Recorder Tips

Picture

1. Line up the holes

2. Left hand on top

3. Cover the tone holes completely - Leaks make squeaks!

4. Use the same breath that you would use to move the flame of a candle.   easy, warm, steamy

5. Tonguing: Say "too" on the higher notes and "doo" on the lower notes.

6. Sit up straight

7. Learn how to read music

8. Practice



Belt Testing

1. RHYTHM- The song needs to be rhythmically correct. 

2. FINGERINGS – You need to be comfortable enough with the fingerings that you don’t have to stop to make corrections.

3. GOOD SOUND - Pitch should be on or very close

4. TONGUING - Use the tongue to play the different rhythms, not your individual breath.

5. NOTE IDENTIFICATION - You need to be able to identify the notes that you are playing on the treble clef.
