Welcome to Mark on the Recorder! Cinderbutte 2020-11-05 | Howdy recorder fans! Welcome to Mark on the Recorder! I'm launching a new Patreon site to demonstrate how to play recorder! patreon.com/markontherecorderWhy? Because over the past dozen years here on YouTube I've been posting recorder videos and hearing from viewers all over the world, and the most common request is for me to teach people how to play the instrument. I play by ear, without musical notation, and my style is informed by my unique musical journey in the world. I invite you to join me in this journey, learning to play the instrument and directly interacting with me to advance your playing skills. I'll demonstrate finger placement and breathing patterns. Most of the time I'll be showing, not telling, with little talk. Now and then, as with this introductory video, I'll tell you about the instrument and my journey with it, which has been quite adventurous! Thank you for watching and listening and if your heart is in it join me on Patreon to support me in bringing beautiful sounds to the world!
