Publisher Desc.  It's Time to Play the Recorder is a sequential song collection that builds on musical skills and literacy from the elementary General Music classroom. The recorder is an inexpensive but beautiful musical instrument that merits a sequential curriculum and a diverse repertoire of songs, including rounds and harmony parts. By building on what students already know, we enable whole classes to play a wide and diverse repertoire of songs. If they can sing it, they can play it! It's Time to Play moves effortlessly between singing, solfege and playing in order to maximize student success and achievement. It's Time to Play promises an engaging, enjoyable and musical recorder experience for ALL.
