Fontanella launched their Recorder Gurus scheme at the 2007 Recorder Revolution conference, organised by Clare Norburn as part of the Brighton Early Music Festival. Their mission... to inspire, support and advise recorder teachers across the UK, and raise the recorder's profile back to where it deserves to be! Here's what delegates had to say:

"Many thanks for such a wonderful day yesterday. It will take me a while to come down to earth!"

"Thank you for a wonderful day, it was most informative and also great fun"

"I have returned to school with renewed enthusiasm and motivation for my recorder group. I am putting in to practise lots of ideas I learned during the day, and now have a range of suitable repertoire for my mixed ability group which will keep them all motivated and happy! A FANTASTIC DAY, REALLY USEFUL"

"Once again, thanks for a superb day. I start teaching recorder with Year 3/4 after half-term and feel both enthused and confident with the challenge ahead"

"The Recorder conference was a brilliant idea and a very special day"

"I felt very energised and came away with lots of inspiration"

"When is the next conference? !!!!!"
