      "Csárdás" is also conducive to the ocarina. To borrow a line from an old American TV commercial that's before your time, "Try it, you’ll like it." 👍 😉 🎶🎵

    As an Italian-Hungarian I am always surprised when I think that Monti has managed to write such convincing Csárdás that has been adopted as "traditional" by the Hungarians. :)

    What a great lesson on musicality!
    One of the lessons (of which there are several) I take from this is the importance of adapting a piece to the properties (or even the limitations) of the instrument one is playing. For example, if you were a tuba player you probably wouldn't adapt it in the same way as a recorder player would, but you instead make adaptations that make sense on the tuba. A clarinet player might make different adjustments, and a bouzouki player (and why not a bouzouki?) might do things still differently. The important thing is to stay true to the feeling of the piece when making adjustments.

    Csárdás is coming from the word 'csárda' which is a pub and roadhouse in the Alföld (the big plain part of Hungary). It was mostly a dance of peasants in rural celebrations, such as weddings. This is how it looked like: ua-cam.com/video/PpjITdAzY34/v-deo.html

    Could you consider publishing a very simple layout hardcopy book of scales. Not just for practice, but as a reference to carry and use. In a A7 pocketsize hardcopy format, and in a Kindle compatible format that is sized to be easy to read on Kindle. PDF works in Kindles, but often the font and graphics need to be expanded so you can read them on Google, so a Kindle friendly PDF file would not look very good unless you read it on Kindle. Nothing fancy, just very simple. For a more commercial project you could approach the recorder makers and work out a format that folds into A7/A6, and can be included with every recorder above a suitable price point. For example, an A3 size piece of paper can be folded to create 16 double sided A6 pages, or 16 single sided A7 pages, room for 12 scales and 4 pages of other stuff, maybe history or a list of pieces to learn etc.. Labelled "Team Recorder - 12 Major Scales" .

    Thanks for spelling *csárdás* correctly, and for your efforts trying to pronounce it. You need to pronounce the "r" as well. In English "r" is often skipped, but in Hungarian it is a hard "r". FYI "csárda" is a kind of inn, where people can drink and dance.
