Helpful Hints for Playing the Recorder
1) Hold your body straight and relaxed.
2) Left hand is on top.
3) In playing the recorder, fingers are numbered, starting with the
index finger: 1, 2, 3. The left thumb covers the thumb hole at the
back.
4) Use the pads of your fingers, not the fingertips.
5) Place the mouthpiece between the lips.
6) Start each note by saying doo. (Tonguing)
7) Breath deeply, filling your lungs, using the diaphragm to draw the
breath in.

Care for Your Recorder


1) Keep your recorder in its bag when you are not using it.
2) Never touch your recorder with your teeth.
3) Wipe out the recorder after playing.

Check!! Are you covering the thumbhole with your left thumb?
Are you covering the first hole at the front with your first
finger on your left hand?
Are you covering the holes with the pads of your fingers
and not the tops?
Are you saying doo and blowing gently?
