Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Locate the correct fingering for a given chromatic note on alto recorder using the chart.
Teaching tips
Post or hand out the relevant note pages just before introducing that note in a recorder unit, rather than the full 22-page set at once.
Confirm which fingering system (standard vs. German) matches your classroom's recorders before distributing, since the chart includes both for A#/Bb.
Skills covered
Chromatic fingering reference use -- students or teachers look up the correct alto recorder fingering for any note across roughly 1.5 octaves, one note per page.
Fingering system comparison -- the chart distinguishes a standard A#/Bb fingering from an alternate 'German Fingering,' letting a teacher select the fingering system matching their recorder.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Why does the chart include two different fingerings for A#/Bb?
It provides both the standard fingering and an alternate 'German Fingering' for that note, since alto recorders are made to two different fingering-system standards and a teacher needs to match the chart to the instrument in the classroom.
