Recently I decided to reacquaint myself with the instrument that every school kid used to be given to take home and torment their parents, the recorder. Now the type that kids are given to start on is the soprano or descant, which has a fairly high range and yet it is a genuine instrument that dates back over 400 years. If blown carefully it can produce a beautiful sound. The low notes are the trickiest to get. Having played around with it for a while and watched countless youtube videos I decided I prefer the sound of the bigger instruments -the alto or treble and the tenor. Also the soprano requires deft fingering due to the closely spaced small holes.And so I ordered myself a tenor and hopefully it will arrive today.
I will keep you posted.
