Music SalesRecorder Duets From the Beginning Book 1
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Beginner recorder duet book, first volume. For students past the first few notes who want to play with a teacher or classmate.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Recorder students working alongside a teacher in weekly lessons
- Two beginners learning to hold a part against another player
- Classroom recorder units needing simple two-part material
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Absolute beginners who have not yet learned any fingerings
- Solo players — the arrangements assume a second part
- Advanced recorder players wanting chromatic or Baroque repertoire

Entry volume of a series, so there is a next step once the material stops challenging you.
Detail 04

Practice depends on a second live player rather than a backing track.
Detail 05

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01What recorder do I need for this?
Beginning recorder method material is normally written for soprano recorder. Confirm the part range before buying if you play alto.
02Can I use this on my own?
Not really. The pieces are duets, so one player gets half the music.
03Is there a Book 2?
It is labeled Book 1, which indicates a series. Availability of later volumes varies.
04Does it include a CD or downloadable audio?
It is sold as a book. Plan on a live second player rather than recorded accompaniment.
