The instrument with the model number: 826BI466-KOB manufactured by Kobliczek is a musical tool that brings joy in daily use.
The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the special combination of the carefully considered model design in combination with the tone colours of the pear wood material used.
The unique qualities of this instrument's material are strikingly pleasing. The characteristics can be summarised as follows: Pear wood: Soft, choral sound. Suitable for playing in a group.
The scale
The inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower inner bore.
Which musical styles can the instrument be used for
Birnbaum is particularly suitable for instruments focussing on Renaissance and folk music, other styles are possible.
Who is this instrument aimed at
This means that pearwood recorders are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. Another rule is that a better instrument generally makes playing together more enriching than a bad one.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the recorder head where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a sheet of air. This sheet of air is the central starting point of the instrument's sound production.
At the labium, the air blade produces the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the basic characteristics
for the response and sound of the instrument. The windway of the Kobliczek model 826BI466-KOB is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are of course extremely complex in their design and many parameters interact.
Fingering
The Kobliczek 826BI466-KOB model is supplied in the following fingering: Ganassi fingering.
Multi-part fingering
The structural design of a recorder in terms of its multiple parts fundamentally determines the way in which it can be used on a daily basis, on the one hand, to ensure easy handling and, on the other, safe transport. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Just ask veteran ensemble managers.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied with a bag and useful accessories as standard:

On such instruments, keys are fitted by the instrument maker to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
