You will find inside these covers a delightful treasure of carefully arranged tunes from many different cultures for your students to play in the upper grades of your school. In the grace of these arrangements are gorgeous harmonies and memorable tunes and gone are the shocking discoveries in the middle of playing that one note or another is too high or too low for a particular recorder. At the hands of Michael Preston, all is made smooth, lilting and lovely! The musical scores are clearly written and easy to listen to.Making music is an important part of the development of the human brain, in the cultivation of wisdom, and in developing social strength in a class. The sound of a recorder ensemble is very sweet and satisfying to play and to hear. Play frequently! Play well! Play in school!.
