Music Making for Recorder & Tuned Percussion
with Online Audio Tracks
**There is a growing awareness that some traditional folk songs, containing racist or derogatory terms or themes, may cause offence. Consequently, Take Note Music is currently auditing our song material with the intention to print new additions where necessary.
The 2nd edition of the student book is now available.
John Kanaka has been replaced by Hill and Gully Rider with some fabulous new improvisation activities.
Delays due to COVID have meant we have not been able to update the audio tracks for the new edition in the correct keys.
Apologies.
