[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1) Give it back to the school. They will take all the recorders apart, throw away the damaged components, and reassemble what's left so that they have some functioning recorders in good condition. These are used for kids who forget their recorder, kids who can't afford to pay, and any after-school music club or whatever.

2) A 100-pack of soprano recorders can be had for the low, low price of $269.95 so let's not get overly stressed about this.

NP.  When I was in grade school, we learned to play the recorder in 3rd grade and it made band instruments in 4th grade much easier.  After playing the clarinet for years, I bought a set of nice wooden concert recorders.  I appreciate that soprano recorders are real instruments that are also sized for smaller hands and smaller lungs and allow students to learn to read and play music.[/quote]

+ 1. I have played soprano and alto recorder for 30 years, including with consorts. Only did 5 years in clarinet. I enjoy recorder much more. Any instrument can be played badly. My third grader murders the xylophone. But I am happy he’s learning. [/quote]
