Note: Some of the songs we do in class have been omitted due to copyright
restrictions. The CD links will not play, once again due to copyright. The
materials I use are accumulated from a variety of sources. Most of the
materials I use are public domain and are legal to publish. However, if you
would like to purchase a recorder method with play-along CD, I would
suggest the Ed Sueta recorder method books. All of the CDs I use come
from his series.
Recorder Rules
1. Follow directions the first time.
2. Do not play when you are supposed

Ornaments
Music from the Baroque and Classical
periods often contain many different types
of ornaments.
trills—rapidly play from written note to one note higher.
turns—play written note then, one note higher, written
note and then one note lower, back to original note.
mordents—play written note, then rapidly one note

grace notes—rapidly play first note resting on

Baroque architecture was filled with ornaments and
decorations as was the music of the time period.
