The recorder with the model number: 1026-MOE built by Moeck is a companion that provides tireless fun while making music.
The instrument owes this special feature mainly to the clever combination of the pioneering model with the sound characteristics of the maple material used.
The special sound characteristics of the material used in this instrument are remarkably pleasing. The special features can be roughly described as follows, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. This is why the sound of recorders is perceived and described in varying detail by each person: Maple: Warm and clear, somewhat thinner than pear.
The scale
The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower scale.
What music can the recorder be used for?
Maple is predestined for recorders that are used in.
Who is the instrument aimed at?
This means that maple instruments are particularly suitable for beginners. Another rule worth noting is that in most cases, a better quality instrument makes it easier to make music than a seemingly inexpensive one.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This sheet of air is the basis of the instrument's sound.
In interaction with the labium, the vibration that generates the flute tone is created from this sheet of air. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the defining characteristics
for the range of musical expressiveness of the recorder. The windway of the Moeck model 1026-MOE is constructed as follows: Straight cylindrical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones. Windways are of course very complex in their design and many parameters are influenced by each other.
Fingering
The Moeck 1026-MOE recorder is made in the following fingering: Pentatonic.
Construction of the body
The number of parts of a woodwind instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder is handled in terms of ease of grip and compact transport during daily use. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Experienced ensemble players can tell you a thing or two about this.
Packaging and accessories
The model is supplied as standard with a bag in a sturdy cardboard box and the appropriate accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, care instructions, fingering chart

Optional information on keys
It is not always possible to place the tone holes in places in the body that are easy and comfortable to reach with the fingers. Especially on larger instruments, tone holes are not ergonomically accessible for acoustic reasons. On such instruments, keys are fitted by the instrument maker to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
The 1026-MOE instrument has the following keys: . This makes it comfortable to play even for players with smaller hands.
Notes for the search for a new recorder
How to find your next instrument easily
Seek expert advice!
