Recorder Magic Descant Tutor Book 1 takes the beginner Recorder player through the earliest stages of Recorder playing and reading music. The book progresses steadily, and by the end the Recorder player will be able to read and play the notes E, G, A, B and high C. There is plenty of reinforcement throughout, particularly for the first three notes: B, A and G. The melodies are a combination of popular traditional and new, inspiring melodies written by the authors Jane Sebba and David Moses. Each track on the accompanying CD contains a Recorder performance, followed by a backing track, played twice.
