In 4th & 5th Grade, my child will need a recorder. Do we have to buy one, or is it provided by the school? What kind should we get and where can we get it? Students are encouraged to purchase their own recorder. The recorder is a life long instrument that makes music making easy anywhere! If you can not purchase a recorder for your student, the school does have instruments that they may borrow. These instruments generally do not go home with students, making practice difficult. There are several good brands of plastic recorders to purchase. Through school your child may purchase an “Angel” brand recorder. The instrument comes with a case, cleaning rod and other essentials. The cost in past years has been $5.00. I do not know the cost for this school year yet, as I have not ordered for the year. The Angel recorders can be purchased from Mrs. Working throughout the school year. (You might want one for the entire family!) Alto recorders are also available on a limited bases for $15.00. Other GOOD brands of soprano recorders include: Yamaha and Aulos. DO NOT purchase colored recorders or the $2.00 specials found in many stores. These recorders are not always pitched accurately. Contact Mrs. Working if you have other questions regarding recorders. The following links have more information about the recorder. If you come across any other informational recorder sites, feel free to share with me!
