Review: Great little recorder for a young beginner. - It's a recorder. It's well made, cheap and essential for any British child growing up as it's part of the curriculum in a lot of school music lessons. This doesn't take away from the fact that when your child is starting out on this wind instrument it sounds incredibly like somebody scratching their fingernails down a chalk board to the untrained ear. Still, that's not to take anything away from this recorder, which is ideal as a first instrument especially at such a cheap price. It could be worse, he could be learning violin.
Review: Classic recorder - I remember playing the recorder as a kid an absolutely loving it. I decided to get 2 of these as a way of introducing my children to the basics of reading music and being able to produce a tune using an instrument other than their "delightful" singing voices. The recorder itself is well made and comes with all the extra little bits needed - a plastic wallet type case, a small pot of vaseline and a stick for poking up a cloth to clean inside. The children love playing them and then faffing around cleaning them out afterwards. I am sure I will learn to love them again once they get the hang of it enough to stop producing torturous, ear piercing squeaks (not the fault of the recorder as I have verified they work by playing it as well).
