How different are the fingerings on descant recorder, treble recorder & oboe?
DD has just got a distinction in her Grade 2 descant and her teacher is desperate for her to give the oboe a proper go (DD less keen at the mo) which DD has agreed to do. But DD would also love to get going on the treble. Would this cause too much confusion for her? I'm thinking this must be her teachers main objection but would like to get it confirmed as I am a bit worried that recorder is seen as a 2nd class instrument when it comes to entrance into senior school. Her teacher could be more worried about DD getting hooked too much on the recorder for this reason?
DD is 9 by the way.
