I played the recorder while in primary (elementary) school (dunno if it's known by any other name) but I guess every kid around the school age of year 4, their parents get them to try out the recorder coz it's one of the easiest woodwind instruments to learn. Many try but very few stick with it. I still have my old recorder from years back and even my old sheet music. Maybe if I dig it out (and give it a bloody good clean
) I'll see if I can play it again and I'll let you guys hear. :^.^:
I also taught myself to play the piano/keyboard. Because I got to grips with musical score and the science behind music when I was a kid, it was relatively easy to make the transfer from recorder to piano. I'm no Beethoven but with enough practice, I can play pretty much whatever's put in front of me
