Soprano (descant) recorders
The instrument with the article number: 212BUD-BLE by Stephan Blezinger is a companion that provides tireless playing pleasure. The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the skilful combination of the unique model design with the expressive possibilities of the boxwood material used. This material makes a strikingly pleasant impression on the instrument thanks to its unique advantages. The special properties can be characterised as follows: Boxwood: powerful, high-pitched sound. The scale The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. 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 inner bore. What music can the recorder be used for? Boxwood is particularly suitable for instruments that specialise in baroque music, other styles are also possible. Who is this recorder aimed at? It follows from this that boxwood recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. A second basic rule worth noting is that a better quality instrument generally makes learning progress less complicated than a poor quality one. The windway of a recorder The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the musician's breath is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This sheet of air is one of the most important elements in the sound production of a recorder. The vibration that generates the flute sound is created from this air blade at the labium. The shape of the windway is therefore very relevant for the variation possibilities of the available sound spectra of the recorder. The windway of the model 212BUD-BLE by Stephan Blezinger is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones. Windways are of course extremely complex in their geometric design and many parameters influence each other. Fingering The Stephan Blezinger 212BUD-BLE recorder is supplied with the following fingering: Baroque double hole. Multi-piece construction The construction of a recorder has a strong influence on the way in which the woodwind instrument can be handled in terms of ease of grip on the one hand and ease of transport on the other. This is particularly important when larger instruments or several instruments need to be transported. Just ask veteran ensemble leaders. Packaging and accessories The instrument is supplied as standard with a case and the appropriate accessories: Wiper rod, cork grease, fingering chart, care instructions Hygiene tips If the recorder is lent out frequently, it is advisable to sterilise the windway at regular intervals to keep it clean.

Optional information on keys It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places on the instrument that are easy and comfortable to play with your fingers. For acoustic reasons, some tone holes on bass instruments in particular are not ergonomically accessible. Keys are fitted to these instruments to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place. The 212BUD-BLE instrument has the following keys: . This means that it can also be played ergonomically well by players with smaller hands. Advice for finding a new recorder How to find your new instrument easily Ask people you know!

The special soprano (descant) recorder for classroom music-making. The classy-recorder belongs to the group of combination recorders from the Klassenflöten model series. The combination recorders are a recorder system that was developed / invented by Kunath Instrumentenbau especially for Waldorf schools. The advantage of the combination-recorders is that a headjoint can be combined with different lower bodies (pentatonic, chromatic).This means that school classes that start with pentatonic and then switch to the "normal" soprano fingering can simply buy a soprano lower body - and save the money for another headjoint. Parents love the concept! The scale The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is cylindroconical and wider than normal school recorders. Who this instrument is aimed at Individual beginners, school classes and folk musicians.

The instrument with the model designation: 4313-MAR manufactured by Marsyas is an instrument that provides tireless fun in daily use. This is due to the skilful combination of the special model design in symbiosis with the qualities of the boxwood material used. The material fascinates with its extraordinary sound characteristics. The characteristics can be roughly described as follows, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. Therefore, the sound of recorders is perceived and described slightly differently by each person: Boxwood: powerful, high-pitched sound,. 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 inner bore. What music can the instrument be used for Boxwood is predestined for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as a solo instrument. Who is the instrument aimed at? It follows that boxwood recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. A general rule of thumb is that a better instrument naturally makes it easier to make music than what at first glance appears to be a cheaper option. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the recorder head where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the defining element of the instrument's sound. In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore very important for the sound and response of the recorder. The windway of the 4313-MAR instrument from Marsyas is shaped as follows: curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are complex in their design and many parameters are influenced by each other. Fingering The Marsyas 4313-MAR recorder is offered in fingering: Baroque double hole. Construction method The way in which a musical instrument is constructed has an extraordinary influence on the way in which the recorder can be handled easily and transported safely in everyday use. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments. Leaders of large playing groups will agree with us. Packaging and accessories The recorder comes as standard with a case and matching accessories: Wiper rod, cork grease, fingering chart, care instructions Hygiene tips If the instrument is lent out frequently, it is advisable to sterilise the beak area if necessary to keep it clean.

Optional information on keys It is not always possible to place tone holes in places in the instrument that are easy to reach with your fingers. Particularly on larger instruments, tone holes are not ergonomically accessible for acoustic reasons. Keys are fitted to such instruments to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place. The 4313-MAR instrument has the following keys: . This means that it can also be played by players with smaller hands. Tips for finding a new instrument How to find a future instrument safely Seek expert advice! However, you shouldn't let "generalised" rules such as "brand xy doesn't work at all in ensembles / for professionals" stop you from trying out a recorder yourself.

The recorder with the model designation: 4307-MAR from the Marsyas workshop is a musical tool that is a joy to play every day. The instrument owes this special feature mainly to the clever marriage of the ingenious design in combination with the tone colours of the grenadilla material used. The material fascinates with its typical sound characteristics. The characteristics can best be described in the following words: Grenadilla: Clear, powerful sound rich in overtones. Very strong. The scale The inner bore of the recorder is slightly cylindroconical. 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 inner bore. For which music can the instrument be best used Grenadilla is particularly suitable for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as a solo instrument. Who is this instrument aimed at? It follows from the above that grenadilla recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. An important basic rule is that a better quality instrument will in most cases make learning progress more enriching than a simple one. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the musician's breath is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of the recorder's sound production. In combination with the labium, this sheet of air creates the fundamental vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore extremely relevant for the recorder's range of musical expression. The windway of the Marsyas 4307-MAR recorder is shaped as follows: curved, conical.Conical windways accelerate the breath more than cylindrically shaped ones. Windways are naturally very complex in their geometric design and many parameters play together. Fingering The Marsyas 4307-MAR recorder is made in the fingering: Baroque double hole. Multi-piece construction The construction of a recorder with multiple parts strongly influences the way in which the woodwind instrument is used, on the one hand making it easy to grip and on the other hand enabling it to be transported safely. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments. Directors of recorder orchestras know how useful good and compact recorder cases are. Provided the instruments can be disassembled into small pieces. Packaging and accessories The model is supplied as standard with a case and useful accessories: Wiper rod, cork grease, fingering chart, care instructions Hygiene tips If the recorder is used by several players, it is advisable to sterilise the blowing area repeatedly to keep it clean. In these cases, the care product Flautisept has proven its worth. Flautisept is available in our collection. It works with the following surfaces: Glazed surfaces, spirit-stained surfaces, RESONA, waxed surfaces, linseed oil surfaces, varnished surfaces, untreated wooden surfaces, ABS plastics However, to be on the safe side, test on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that the product does not cause any adverse changes to your instrument. Optional information on keys It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places on the instrument that are easy to play with your fingers.

The instrument with the model designation: 4311-MAR from Marsyas is an instrument that is as much fun to play in the classroom as it is on stage. The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the clever composition of the special design in fine coordination with the tone colours of the pear wood used. This material stands out in the instrument due to its special advantages. The special characteristics can be summarised as follows: Pear wood: Soft, choral sound. Suitable for playing in a group. The scale The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower scale. What music can the instrument be used for Birnbaum is ideal for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as a solo instrument. Who is the instrument aimed at? It follows from the above that pearwood recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. Another generally applicable rule is that a better quality instrument generally makes learning progress more enriching than a poor one.
