Recorder Playing

Dear Pupils,
Things to remember
1. keep left hand on the top
2. each note should be played by whispering the word "too," not "hoo"
3. Keep fingers nice and low
4. your goal should be to play the whole song at a steady tempo. It sounds bad if you play the easy parts fast and the hard parts slow.
