Description
Andrew Charlton's recorder method was born out of his passion for teaching and playing the instrument. As a professor of music at California State University at Fullerton, Andrew taught a range of subjects including instrumental performance classes and jazz arranging. However, he soon realised that there was a need for a method that would allow recorder players to be flexible enough to play different types of recorders with ease. This book is the result of Andrew's efforts to create such a method. He took a sabbatical from teaching to write it, using his own experiences and those of his private students to develop a comprehensive approach. The method has since been used by many music lovers, including players of other instruments like the gamba. Andrew Charlton was a talented musician who played several wind instruments well, including the recorder. He also enjoyed improvising in different styles, from Renaissance to jazz. His expertise and dedication to teaching are reflected in this book, which remains a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their recorder playing skills.
