Moeck, "Flauto Rondo", bent bass in f, baroque double hole, maple

Product information "Moeck, "Flauto Rondo", bent bass in f, baroque double hole, maple"

The instrument with the article number: 2540-MOE made by Moeck is a musical tool that makes making music fun again and again.
This characteristic is due to the clever combination of the pioneering design with the expressive possibilities of the maple material used.

The unique qualities of the material used for this instrument are inspiring. The special features can best be described in the following words, whereby 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 slightly differently by each person: Maple: Warm and clear, slightly thinner than pear.

The scale

The inner bore of the recorder is slightly cylindroconical and narrower on average. 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 scale.

What music can the recorder be used for?

Maple is particularly suitable for recorders that focus on choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible.

Who is the instrument aimed at?

The above facts show that maple recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. A rule of thumb to bear in mind is that a better quality instrument generally makes learning more enriching than a cheaper one.

The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the instrument headjoint where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is one of the most important elements in the sound production of a recorder. At the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore very relevant for the musical formability of the recorder's achievable sounds.

The windway of the Moeck 2540-MOE instrument is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.
Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones.
Windways are very complex in their design and many parameters interact.

Fingering

The Moeck 2540-MOE recorder is offered in the following fingering: Baroque double hole.

Construction method

The number of individual parts of a musical instrument influences in many ways the way in which the recorder can be handled in terms of ease of grip and safe transport during daily use.
This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Recorder orchestra leaders will agree with us.

Packaging and accessories

The instrument is supplied as standard with a case and the appropriate accessories: Cork grease, strap, fingering chart, wiper rod, wiper cloth, care instructions

Hygiene tips

If the recorder is borrowed frequently, it is advisable to regularly disinfect the blowing area to prevent the transmission of diseases. The care product Flautisept has proven effective for this purpose. You can find Flautisept in our collection. It works with the following surfaces:
  • Spirit-stained surfaces
  • Glazed surfaces
  • Waxed surfaces
  • Untreated wood surfaces
  • Lacquered surfaces
  • Linseed oil surfaces
  • ABS plastics
  • RESONA
However, before using the product, test it on an inconspicuous area to ensure that it does not cause any adverse changes to your instrument.

Optional information on keys

It is not always possible to place tone holes in places that are easy and comfortable to play with your fingers. For acoustic reasons, some tone holes on bass recorders in particular are not ergonomically accessible. On these instruments, keys are fitted by the instrument maker to make playing easier or even possible in the first place.
The 2540-MOE instrument has the following keys: Centre joint keys + foot key. This makes it remarkably easy to play even for players with smaller hands.

Tips on the way to a new recorder

How to easily find your next instrument
Ask people you know!
