The second volume of the recorder school "Learn the recorder with Lotti and Ben!" is aimed at children aged 3 and over in kindergarten and primary school and, like the first volume, is suitable for both individual and group lessons. In small, careful steps, the children, accompanied by their friends Lotti & Ben, learn further basics of musical notation and playing techniques in a playful way. In volume 2, the notes F sharp', B', E'', C sharp' and C sharp'' are added and the children have the opportunity to play almost all of the songs in two parts. The individual parts of the songs and an appealing piano accompaniment can be downloaded from the download area. The children can experience the music with all their senses by clapping, speaking, singing (thanks to the lyrics that match each song) or by moving. Playing along to the music allows the little beginners to feel like "real" musicians and there are no limits to the creativity of the children and teachers. Music and painting games add to the fun of learning the flute and perfectly round off the educational concept of “Learning the recorder with Lotti & Ben - Volume 2”.
