You are such a wonderful teacher and communicator! You literally make everything interesting! I have fallen in love with recorders and recorder music since I found your videos. I have played classical piano all my life and never gave much thought to recorders, but now I’m kind of obsessed with them! The instrument itself and all the different woods are just as beautiful as the music. I’m currently teaching myself , and my grandchildren who love it as well! I just wish you lived near me so I could take private lessons from you! You are awesome Sarah, thanks for all you do!!!!❤

You've convinced me to get back into recorder playing. I'm a professional bassoonist, but it would be so nice to practice ornamentation without the technical issues of the bassoon in the way. I'm sure you understand this 😉

OK, I have just started playing in my first ever recorder and am now terrified. I have never been very good at ornamentation and it must be really difficult on the recorder since the fingering is tricky. Maybe once I have sorted out the chromatic scale which will be easier once I can play my recorder for longer than 5 minutes per day. Great video Sarah

Your ornamentation videos are lovely and informative. Many KZitem producers who talk about composition don't mention much about ornamentation, neither as a cue for players to improvise nor in the form of writing precise instructions for a synth to execute. Thanks.

People who think the recorder can only play hot cross buns definitely never heard of you or Lucie Hirsch Michala Petri Erik bosgraaf perkelt Wild Holz and the composer's of baroque Renaissance medieval recorder composers and modern beatbox recorders Medhat Mamdouh altaj Zipporah and the Celtic repertoires and of course Tali Rubenstein Jazz Recorder Virtuoso. Recorders Revival Is Now And The Future. It will always be around I swap recorder as my first instead of guitar which now my second instrument.thank you for your inspiration and keeping the light in all of us recorder community. Cheers

Another tool you should use is look for places where the composer has written out a specific passagio in his musc. Extracting the underlying melodic context from an ornamented passage is just as important a skill as adding ornaments to a simple melody. This leads to several useful things: 1) Noticing where musicians thoughtbit was appropriate to place ornamentations. 2) Once you notice that a particular passage is an ornament, you may have the option to substitute a different ornament, including an easier one if the one written in is too difficult for you. 3) Once you recognize places with written out ornaments, you can start looking (or listening) for places in other peices of music with a parallel construction where a similar ornament could be added.

Unrelated to the video (because I actually haven't finished watching it yet) but I have an idea for something for you to talk about on your channel that I think you/your audience would be interested in! (If you don't mind the unsolicited recommendation) The Suzuki Andes! It's essentially a melodica that uses dozens of miniature recorders instead of reeds. And it sounds delightful (or abysmal, depending on who's playing it...much like the recorder). It's a little pricier than your average melodica, at about 100-150 bucks (which is the only reason I haven't bought one for myself yet), but that's not unreasonable for how unusual and niche it is imo. It definitely has shortcomings compared to an actual recorder, but being able to play a recorder-ish intrument that's fully chromatic is pretty dang cool.

Come to think of it, because it's polyphonic, and as such it can play chords, this instrument shouldn't have been named the Suzuki Andes Recorder Keyboard... It should've been named the ReCHORDer.

If you are a hobbyist you have the great advantage to have the right to do anything you want and like, without any consequences 😊 We have here an excellent tutorial about Renaissance ornamentation, it would be a sin not to make the effort to familiarize with it and try to apply it to Renaissance music, but in the end you play for the love of it. So in the end you have the right to chose the way you prefer to play.
@edwardblair4096

The Renaissance ideal is to have the ornamentation feel spontaneous and a natural outgrowth of the underlying music. Even if you only have a few or a single ornament you feel comfortable with, you want to make it sound to the listener like you made up the ornament on the spot. Don't forget to make use of different articulation patterns to help hide that you are using the same passage over and over. Also differentiate between practice and rehearsal on one hand and public performance on the other. In order to have the best public performance experience, you need to stick to what you are most comfortable with, but in order to get comfortable, you need to not be afraid to push the envelope when you are in practice and rehearsal.
