Recorders are a part of the woodwind family of instruments and have been played for hundreds of years in many different cultures and types of music. For as little as $5 an instrument you can introduce your budding musicians to the invaluable disciplines of instrumental learning and teamwork as well as to some of the world's beautiful rhythms and melodies. Playing the recorder is an excellent and fun way to learn the essentials and basic skills of music which can prepare children to perform in other musical groups such as choir, band, or orchestra.
