INTRODUCTIONThis book is written and designed for a beginner who will be able to teach him/herself how to play a recorder and understand some theories of music with ease. Again, this book will be of a great help to students in understanding the practical aspects of music both at the primary and secondary school levels. These days, compositions have become a difficult task amidst the choir such that having their own copyright to musical compositions have become rare, rather songs from unknown sources are embraced. For this reason, church music has become less spiritual (1Cor.14:15b).However, this book will enhance the composing and singing abilities of choir in our various churches. It will also help them to sight sing lots of great gospel songs and hymns with tonic sol-fa. Churches are advised to recommend this book for their choir. In conclusion, this book contains lots of practical works that are playable with any other musical instrument, like saxophone, trumpet, piano, guitar, clarinet, flute, violin e.t.c. Therefore, parents are requested to encourage their children by buying them the book (The Recorder's Book for Easy Learning with great gospel songs & hymns' tonic sol-fa) and any musical instrument of their choice, apart from the recorder which the book centers on. This will indeed help them to showcase their God-given talents.

This guide presents a new and uniquely South African approach to learning about staff notation - especially for musicians who are educated in the tonic solfa system. Readers will build an understanding of each aspect of notation by experiencing it as music. Tonic solfa is used in the earlier chapters to help relate the sounds to the concepts. The book is designed for mature music students and adult learners whose first language may not be English. However, it will be useful to students of music from any sector of society, whether they are enrolled in a formal course or simply want to find out more on their own. Each chapter is devoted to particular aspects of notation and most chapters are built around a piece of music generally familiar to South Africans. Because South Africa has a strong vocal and choral culture, examples are often drawn from the choral repertory. The book and CD include many examples of South African music, as well as samplings of classical Western music and jazz. The CD also offers music clips played on a keyboard, illustrating some of the examples of notation given in the book. Examples and exercises are drawn from this rich representation, and, by means of self-tests, readers will steadily become confident in reading and writing music in staff notation. They will also build up a strong knowledge of how music works by seeing the structures of a wide range of music from diverse cultures in South Africa.
