Play the Recorder
This is one for the whole family to have a go at! Use these specially made resources to learn how to play the recorder from scratch. All you need is right here (except a recorder – you will need to get hold of one first). Enjoy!
These resources can be used online or can be downloaded, which will enable the contents page links.
Body Percussion
Fancy trying your hand as a percussionist? You don’t need any equipment for this virtual body percussion ensemble performance! Simply follow the link below to sign up and receive instructions and get practising. Once you have perfected your body percussion skills, record yourself and send in the video and we will work some magic to turn it into a split screen performance. Please note the deadline for submissions is 30 June.

Get the whole family together to explore a different musical activity every day for a month.
