NEW! The classic play-a-long:
RECORDER AND MORE
by Winifried Hackl

Created by a teacher and player to fill a need - the lack of adequate accompanists and to provide the challenge and motivation to make music with other musicians and various types of instruments. To make it easier for the student to follow along, both the recorder and bass parts are included in the written music. This also makes it possible for another recorder player to accompany on the bass recorder. All selection have been recorded twice, once with the recorder part and once without it.
