RECORDER RALPH SAYS:

BEFORE YOU TOOT,

•     Make sure you are holding the instrument with BOTH HANDS!
•     LEFT HAND ON TOP!
•     Make sure ALL holes are covered to produce the correct note!
•     DO NOT OVERBLOW!
•     DO NOT pinch your lips on the mouthpiece!

"What a lovely, gentle sound I hear!" barks Recorder Ralph.  "Those Sacred Heart girls can really play the recorder well!"

Recorder Ralph questions:

• How do you articulate clean notes on the recorder?

• How do you make certain your holes are completely covered?

• What will happen if you blow the air too hard through your instrument?
