Product information "Kunath, "sun recorder", pentatonic, 440 Hz, d'' e'' g'' a''' 'h'' d''' e'''"
The pitch standard of a = 440 Hz makes the instrument suitable for fixed-tuned instruments such as pianos and mallet instruments. One of the best-selling 7-tone pentatonic recorders.
The scale
The inner bore of the recorder is cylindroconical and slightly wider than normal soprano (descant) recorders.
This type of bore gives the model its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than recorders with a narrower bore.
Who is this recorder aimed at?
School classes in Waldorf schools, Montessori schools or early music education.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This sheet of air is one of the most important elements of a recorder's sound, and it is from this sheet of air at the labium that the vibration that generates the recorder's sound originates. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the main features that characterise the musical shape of the sounds that can be produced by the recorder.
The windway of the sun recorder is 30% narrower than the usual width for soprano instruments. This results in the delicate sound.
The sun recorder has a straight and very narrow cylindrical windway.
Fingering
The 50061 sun recorder has the following fingering: Pentatonic, 7-tone
