Arranged by Paul Jennings, this array of songs is sequenced to correspond to the first five belts in the system (which feature the notes low D, low E, G, A, B) and, toward the end of the collection, to provide a bridge to the sixth belt (which introduces both high C and high D) by offering tunes that just require the addition of C to the notes previously learned.
Each arrangement is designed like the selections in both Recorder Karate 1 and 2, with a short intro and a testing length. When appropriate, songs are recorded at two tempos. Some tunes also have longer versions of the song to make them usable for concerts. We have also included special bonus tunes, each within the technical parameters of these levels.
The recording includes 57 different tracks with everything from big band to full orchestra to rock and folk bands
