| The students who join the Recorder Club learn more about playing the
recorder in various ensemble experiences. We use the soprano, alto and
tenor recorders as well as pitched and unpitched percussion instruments. In
this club the students play more challenging music written specifically for
recorder ensembles. Ensemble participation is both fun and rewarding for
the students, as the pace is faster than the work done in the general music
classroom. Rehearsals will be held in the Music Roomon Thursday mornings
before school from 7:45-8:20.
The students earn their place in this ensemble. They must learn to read and
play the seven pitches taught in general music by the end of the fourth
grade. Invitations to participate are sent out in September. If a student
is interested in the club and has not recieved an invitation, they can talk
to Mrs. Oxholm to see what is required and pick up any needed music.
