Product information "Moeck, "Renaissance Consort", bass in f, baroque single hole, 1.5 oct. range, stained maple"
The instrument with the article number: 8520-MOE built by Moeck is a recorder that is tireless fun to play.
The instrument owes this special feature mainly to the clever combination of the above-average design and the advantages of the maple material used.
The scale
The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical and wider on average. 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.
For which musical styles can the instrument be best used?
Maple is ideal for instruments that are used in the Renaissance and folk styles, although other styles are possible.Who is this instrument aimed at
It follows from the above that maple instruments are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. Another important rule of thumb is that a better instrument generally makes playing together more enjoyable than an instrument that appears to be cheaper at first glance.The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the instrument headjoint where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus of a recorder'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 influential for the variation possibilities of the available sound spectra of the recorder.
The windway of the Moeck 8520-MOE instrument is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conical windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrically shaped ones.
Windways are of course extremely complex in their design and many parameters play together.
Fingering
The Moeck 8520-MOE instrument is offered in fingering: Baroque single hole.
Multi-part construction
The construction of a woodwind instrument fundamentally determines the way in which the recorder can be easily assembled and safely transported.
This is particularly important when transporting larger or multiple instruments.
Experienced ensemble players can tell you a thing or two about this.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied as standard with a case and useful accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, cork grease, care instructions, fingering chartHygiene tips
If the instrument is used by several players, we recommend that you clean the windway repeatedly to maintain cleanliness. In these cases, the care product Flautisept has proven its worth. You can find Flautisept in our collection. It works with the following surfaces: Untreated wooden surfaces, waxed surfaces, varnished surfaces, ABS plastics, RESONA, linseed oil surfaces, varnished surfaces, spirit-stained surfaces However, to be on the safe side, test on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that Fautisept does not cause any adverse changes to your instrument.Optional information on keys
It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places in the body that are easy to play with your fingers. Especially on bass recorders, tone holes are not ergonomically accessible for acoustic reasons. On these instruments, keys are fitted by the instrument maker to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.The 8520-MOE instrument has the following keys: 1-fold foot key. This allows it to be played comfortably even by players with smaller hands.
