Moeck, "Rottenburgh", bass in f, 442 Hz, baroque double hole, stained maple

Product information "Moeck, "Rottenburgh", bass in f, 442 Hz, baroque double hole, stained maple"

The instrument with the article number: 4521-MOE made by Moeck is an instrument that is always fun to play.
This characteristic is due to the clever marriage of the unique model in fine tuning with the qualities of the maple material used.

This material fascinates with its extraordinary advantages. The special properties can be described as follows: Maple: Warm and clear, slightly thinner than pear wood.

The scale

The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument 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 inner bore.

What styles of music can the recorder be used for?

Maple 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 from this that maple instruments are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. An additional important basic rule is that a better quality instrument generally makes learning more enriching than a seemingly cheap bargain.

The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of the recorder's sound production. In interaction with the labium, this sheet of air creates the fundamental vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the defining principles for the variation possibilities of the available sound spectra of the recorder.

The windway of the Moeck model 4521-MOE is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.
Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones.
Windways are of course very complex in their design and many parameters play together.

Fingering

The Moeck 4521-MOE recorder is made in the following fingering: Baroque double hole.

Construction method

The way a recorder is constructed has a fundamental influence on the way in which the woodwind instrument can be easily handled in terms of ease of grip on the one hand and convenient transport on the other.
This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Directors of large ensembles know how useful good and compact recorder cases are. Provided the instruments can be easily disassembled.

Packaging and accessories

The model is supplied as standard with a case and the following accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, cork grease, care instructions, fingering chart

Hygiene tips

If the instrument is used by several players, you should consider regularly sterilising the beak area to keep it clean. Flautisept has proven effective for disinfection in these cases. You can find Flautisept in our collection. It works with the following surfaces:
  1. Untreated wooden surfaces
  2. Lacquered surfaces
  3. Linseed oil surfaces
  4. RESONA
  5. Lacquered surfaces
  6. Waxed surfaces
  7. ABS plastics
  8. Spirit stained surfaces
However, before using Fautisept, be sure to test it on an inconspicuous area to ensure that it does not cause any discolouration on your recorder.

Optional information on keys

It is not always possible to place the tone holes in places in the instrument body that are easy and comfortable to reach with the fingers. Especially on larger recorders, tone holes are not ergonomically accessible for acoustic reasons. Keys are fitted to these instruments to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
The instrument 4521-MOE has the following keys: Centre joint keys + foot key. This makes it easy to play even for players with smaller hands.
