Recorder lessons are usually available from Year 2. Woodwind lessons are generally available from Years 3-4.
Pupils must have their adult front teeth to learn clarinet, saxophone and oboe.
If your child does not yet have their adult front teeth then the recorder is a good instrument to start on as this develops finger/tongue co-ordination and note-reading skills. The fingerings used on the descant recorder are very similar to those used on both the saxophone and oboe.
Our Associate Teachers can advise on which specific woodwind instrument would be best for your child. Contact Us for further information.
