Learn to Play the Recorder

"The true beauty of music is that it connects people. It carries a message, and we, the musicians, are the messengers."  - Roy Ayers 
Children, teens, adults. Learn to play an easy instrument, bring music into your life, and have fun at the same time.

Enjoy duets with your friends or join a recorder group. Obviously, you need a recorder (I advise starting with either soprano or alto), book, and music stand (I can order for you - see below).

Examples of Great Recorder Music

    Got a Question?
​As a piano teacher myself, I was anxious to find a teacher that would make learning music an enjoyable experience for my children. I am totally and completely happy with my children's lessons with Terry. He is patient and encouraging. He draws from a variety of resources to provide music that teaches, challenges, and is pleasant to play (and listen to). I highly recommend him!  ​- Anna H.
​Terry Smith is an excellent piano teacher. He is very knowledgeable in technique and the history of music. He was always on time and ended on time for his next student. He ​always made lessons enjoyable.   ​-Terri B.
