The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the headpiece of the recorder where the breath is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is the determining element of the sound production. At the labium, the air stream is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging flow stimulates the air in the body of the instrument. And this is the origin of the recorder tone. This is the reason why the labium must not be damaged in any case. The same applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the sound and response of the recorder.
