Staeps: The Daily Lesson

Exercises for advancing players of the treble (alto) recorder Different time signatures, key signatures, scales, and rhythms run throughout Staeps’ new set of daily exercises for recorder players aiming for a high level of achievement. _The Daily Lesson_, 28 in all, will present quite a workout once the student is able to play them all in succession. Aside from supporting an intimacy with the instrument, _The Daily Lesson_ also prepares the student for the demands of contemporary music, in addition to the classic repertoire. These exercises are written to improve finger, articulation and breathing technique as well as to increase in speed. They can be used on treble recorders with either German or English fingerings. As daily exercises, when mastered completely, they should be played through in 40 minutes all together. At each stage compare the time taken with the figure in seconds given at the end of each exercise, and aim at the performance of the complete book within the prescribed time. of course, any part of it may be used as practice material and in your own time. If nothing else is mentioned, play both legato as well as staccato. * Manufacturer UE036968 * Recorder
