Sherborne Schools Recorder workshop - 27th April 2006.

24 children from Years 3,4 and 5 went to the Sherborne Abbey School. We played a piece by Mozart with recorder players from schools in the local area - it was great fun and sounded fantastic! Mozart would have been extremely proud of us!
We played a piece by ourselves to the other schools in the local area.
We enjoyed listening to a recorder consort perform. We learnt about the many different recorders in the recorder family. We particularly liked the sound of the contra bass recorder.
