Recorder Solo and Etude Sheet Music

Welcome to the Recorder Institute’s collection of Solo and Etude sheet music. This page lists the works included in our downloadable music archives, arranged alphabetically by composer for easy browsing. Click any linked volume number to view the archive containing that piece, where you’ll also find complete contents, sample pages, and additional information.

The Recorder Institute is one of several instrument-specific collections maintained by the Clarinet Institute Music Archives. Although the parent organization began as a resource for clarinet players, it has grown over the years to include thousands of works for many woodwind, brass, string, and chamber ensembles. Each instrument now has its own dedicated collection while remaining part of the larger archive.

Our goal is simple: to make great music easy to discover. Whether you’re searching for a familiar concert work, a teaching piece, or something you’ve never encountered before, we hope this collection helps you find music you’ll enjoy playing.
