The Ruby Recorder Book of Christmas Carols – Backing Tracks Download
This is a download of the Backing Tracks which accompany our book: The Ruby Recorder Book of Christmas Carols – Backing Tracks Download
You will hear a short introduction (usually two bars, or slightly less if you start on an upbeat) followed by a recorder playing the tune. Your downloads will be .mp3 files.
Each carol has two files – one with the backing track and melody, the other with just the accompaniment (so you could even do some improvising!)
Have fun!
