Recorder Excellence - Student Book (Book Only)

The Complete System for Building a Solid Musical Foundation while Learning to Play the Recorder!
RECORDER EXCELLENCE is not just another recorder method. It's a complete full-color student-friendly music curriculum, offering standards-based music study, replacing the need for costly 'hard cover' textbooks.
Every student is unique, and every school music program has different needs. To give students, teachers, and parents maximum flexibility and page-for-page value, RECORDER EXCELLENCE is divided into two parts:
Part One - covers core skills, and is perfect for general music recorder units that are part of a larger curriculum.
Part Two - expands on basic skills and gives teachers the opportunity to use the recorder as the core of one to two years of general music study. The expanded scope offered by Part Two also makes RECORDER EXCELLENCE ideal for more serious students.
The Recorder Excellence Student Book (Enhanced Version) is the complete package: The Recorder Excellence Book, the Enhanced CD with Play-Along accompaniments & iPAS Practice and assessment software, and the DVD, which includes a Getting Started Guide, lessons, demonstrations and even Virtual Flashcards! This version is recommended for the most fun and rewarding learning experience.
''Everyone-at all ages-should receive the gift of music, for it enriches the soul and exalts the human spirit. In RECORDER EXCELLENCE, students learn to play an instrument, and so much more. At school or at home, in class or just for fun, they travel the road to excellence and come to understand music and its place in our World's diverse history, all while experiencing the joys of singing, composing, improvising, and performing. Join us on this amazing journey!'' - Bruce Pearson & Wendy Barden
