A question - Recorders!
http://recorder-love.livejournal.com/8740.html
A question - Recorders! Jan 17th, 2009 09:22 pm. I'm not a newbie to the recorder world - there's been at least one in my house for as long as I can remember. However, I'm considering finally learning how to play, since my father isn't interested in his any more, and I hate to see musical instruments that have been in the family for a while just abandoned.(yes, I also have a house full of pets! My question is: how experienced a player were you when you started playing baroque and/or renaissance music?

Hi, I bought a tenor recorder a couple of weeks ago on a whim as I'd - Recorders! Mar 1st, 2008 10:53 pm. 2008-03-02 12:29 am (UTC). Really hard to diagnose without seeing what you're doing, but. Also, try different angles on the thumbhole. Different instruments will want different size opening there. It's rarely actually a "halfhole", more likely a quarter or so open. 2008-03-02 09:30 am (UTC). Ta I'll try that later. 2008-03-02 03:38 am (UTC). Yep, I agree with what. 2008-03-02 06:50 pm (UTC). I have f...

Housecleaning - Industrial-Strength Procrastination

Housecleaning - Industrial-Strength Procrastination. February 5th, 2008. 11:51 am - Housecleaning. Our house is a mess! There's nothing new about that, but it's starting to make me a little crazy. I've become less and less tolerant of a messy house over the years, but (1) Rich and I are both terrible housekeepers, (2) Rich is still more tolerant of mess than I am, which means he doesn't have the same emotional investment that I do in cleaning (that's not a slight on him! More storage space, and more inte...

Housecleaning report, week 2 - Industrial-Strength Procrastination. February 12th, 2008. 12:06 pm - Housecleaning report, week 2. I'm a couple of days late posting this, but. Reviewed a stack of old magazines and put them into recycling. Cut up a bunch of cardboard boxes into small pieces, and put them into recycling too. Total of 8 bags generated. And when that was done, we all got sick with a stomach bug! When we got over that, Matthew and I caught a ferocious cold, which we still have. So no other...

Tricky fingering - Recorders! Jan 21st, 2008 04:03 pm. Is it just me, or is the "cover up to the 7th hole but uncover the 5th hole with your middle finger" fingering to play F on tenor recorder really unergonomic? 2008-01-21 09:34 pm (UTC). Yeah, I think it's the sheer length of the instrument that I find unergonomic. 2008-01-21 10:56 pm (UTC). And on the descant too. 2008-01-21 11:21 pm (UTC). 2008-01-22 01:36 pm (UTC). 2008-01-22 09:03 pm (UTC). 2008-02-01 06:07 pm (UTC). I dont know much about the bra...

Request for ideas - Recorders!
http://recorder-love.livejournal.com/4989.html
Request for ideas - Recorders! Jan 7th, 2008 04:40 pm. Two things I'd love to hear input on:. 1 Starting to put together materials for the adult beginners recorder class that I will be teaching starting next week. There is a remarkable lack of interesting 4 (or 3 or 2) part music with a limited range. So, if anyone has any pieces they especially like, with a 5 note range (first 5 notes of the key) in any key (I can typeset and transpose) I would love so see them! 2008-01-09 01:49 am (UTC). As for adverti...

Housecleaning report, week 1 - Industrial-Strength Procrastination. February 5th, 2008. 09:20 pm - Housecleaning report, week 1. In the last few days, here's what Rich and I have accomplished, over and above homeostasis (laundry, vacuuming, dealing with food in all its stages, etc.):. I bought a set of plastic bins, plus some other storage supplies. Anyone want diapers of size NB, 1, or 3? February 6th, 2008 02:48 am (UTC). February 6th, 2008 03:12 am (UTC). February 6th, 2008 03:45 am (UTC). I'd love to...

February 20th, 2008. 06:58 pm - Housecleaning report, week 3. Once again, I was sick for most of the week, so not a huge amount got done. But I'm better now; thanks for asking. :-) This week we got some of the sweet payoff for the earlier work:. Finished decluttering the back of the kitchen (yay! The bay window is clear for the first time in. um, maybe since it was installed? Continued decluttering the entryway area. February 12th, 2008. 12:06 pm - Housecleaning report, week 2. Charged up and cleaned out...
