 Re: Recorder - Sorry if too off-topic

1. General advice
Do not force anything on your child. If it doesn't want, wait. Pressure is the best method to drive him away from music for a long time

2. Brands
Yamaha

3. Models
We got a plastic soprano Yamaha recorder (3 parts), somewhere in the 20$ range (YRS-302b I guess). Very good instrument considered the price. I wouldn't go much cheaper. (BTDTGTT - been there, done that, got the T-shirt)

4. Instruction and practice books
Beats me - ask a teacher

5. Teaching methods
See 4.

6. Anything else I am too ignorant to know I don't know...
Start slowly. Your son has plenty of time. Are there any potential comrades for him? (I know class is funnier when not alone).
