A great joy in my life is to arrange and play music on recorders. I would like to share the joy by inviting you to print out my arrangements for noncommercial uses. The more difficult ensemble pieces that I’ve arranged are listed below. For easier selections, purchase Easy Consort Music for Recorders.

Once you have completed The NEW Nine-Note Recorder Method , use BEYOND the Nine-Note Recorder Method to get ready for the more advanced music listed below. To learn alto recorder, purchase The Nine-Note Recorder Method: ALTO Edition and BEYOND the Nine-Note
