Musical Memory

Wood Recorder 

When I was in elementary school (grades K through 6), my 4th, 5th, and 6th grade classes included lessons in playing a black plastic, flute-like musical instrument called the tonette. I was far from musically skilled, but that didn't stop me from asking my parents to buy me the next step up, musically speaking: a recorder. In junior high, we actually did have to learn to play the recorder and the ones handed out by the school weren't nearly as nice as the one I already had. I never got all that skilled in playing it, but I do love having it.
