The instrument with the model designation: YRN-21-YAM, manufactured by Yamaha, is a companion that provides tireless fun in everyday use.
This characteristic is largely due to the skilful combination of the special instrument model in combination with the sound characteristics of the plastic material used.
This material is pleasantly convincing with its unique advantages. The characteristics can be described as follows, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. For this reason, each person perceives and describes the details of the material-typical sound of recorders slightly differently: .
The scale
The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical. 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 inner bore.
Which musical styles are best suited to the recorder
Plastic is predestined for instruments that are mainly used for choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible.
Who this instrument is aimed at
It follows that plastic recorders are particularly suitable for beginners. An additional rule is that a better quality instrument will in most cases make playing together more enriching than a poor quality one.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This sheet of air is the basis of the instrument'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
one of the defining principles
for the instrument's range of artistic applications. The windway of the Yamaha YRN-21-YAM model is constructed as follows: Straight, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Due to their geometric design, windways are extremely complex and many parameters influence each other.
Fingering
The Yamaha YRN-21-YAM model is offered in the following fingerings: .
Construction of the body
The number of components in a recorder determines in many ways the way in which the woodwind instrument is handled, both in terms of ease of assembly and ease of transport. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.

Packaging and accessories
The recorder is supplied as standard with a bag and the following accessories: Wiper rod, cork grease, fingering chart, care instructions
Hygiene tips
If the recorder is shared, it is advisable to clean the beak area sterilely if necessary to ensure hygienic safety.

Optional information on keys
It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places on the instrument that are easy and comfortable to reach with your fingers. For acoustic reasons, some tone holes on low instruments in particular are not ergonomically accessible. Keys are fitted to these instruments to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.

The Moeck sopranino recorder from the "Rondo" model series is a wooden recorder in the classic construction method.
The instrument is made of paraffinised wood, varnished and has proven itself a thousand times over.
The instrument with the model designation: 3110-MOE from the Moeck workshop is an instrument that is always a joy to play.
This special feature is largely due to the masterful combination of the pioneering instrument model with the tone colours of the maple material used.
This material makes a strikingly pleasant impression on the instrument thanks to its special advantages. The features can be characterised in this way, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. For this reason, the details of the typical material sound of recorders are perceived and described slightly differently by each person: Maple: Warm and clear, somewhat thinner than pear wood.
The scale
The inner bore of the recorder is slightly cylindroconical. 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.
Which musical styles can the recorder be used for?
Maple is ideal for instruments that are used primarily for choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are also possible.
Who the instrument is aimed at
It follows that maple instruments are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. Another rule of thumb to bear in mind is that a better quality instrument will in most cases make learning less complicated than a supposedly cheap one.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the determining element in the sound production of a recorder.
At the labium, the vibration that fundamentally generates the flute tone is created from this air blade. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the defining characteristics
for the artistic usability of the instrument. The windway of the Moeck 3110-MOE instrument is constructed as follows: Curved, cylindrical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones. Due to their geometric shape, windways are extremely complex and many parameters are influenced by each other.
Fingering
The Moeck 3110-MOE recorder is offered in the fingering: German single hole.
Construction of the body
The construction of a musical instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder can be easily handled in terms of ease of grip and safe transport. 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 model is supplied as standard with a bag in a sturdy cardboard box and the following accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, cork grease, care instructions, fingering chart
Hygiene tips
If the instrument is rented out frequently, it is advisable to disinfect the windway at regular intervals for your own protection.
The care product Flautisept has proven to be a reliable helper in these cases. You can find Flautisept in our collection.
It works with the following surfaces:
Lacquered surfaces, linseed oil surfaces, glazed surfaces, spirit-stained surfaces, untreated wooden surfaces, waxed surfaces, ABS plastics, RESONA
However, it is essential that you test the product on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that it does not leave any unwanted marks on your recorder.
Optional information on keys
It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places in the body that are comfortable and easy to play with your fingers. Particularly on bass instruments, 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 3110-MOE instrument has the following keys: . This makes it easy to play even for players with smaller hands.

Dieser Umstand liegt an der meisterhaften Zusammenstellung des genialen Designs in Symbiose mit den Vorzügen des verwendeten Materials Ahorn.
Dieses Material überzeugt bei dem Instrument auffallend angenehm durch seine einzigartigen Vorzüge. Die Eigenschaften lassen sich so charakterisieren, wobei es in der Natur der Sache liegt, dass Klänge immer nur sehr unzureichend mit Worten beschrieben werden können. Daher wird der Klang von Blockflöten von jedem Menschen in Details unterschiedlich wahrgenommen und beschrieben: Ahorn: Warm und Klar, etwas dünner als Birnbaum.
Die Mensur
Die Innenbohrung der Blockflöte ist schwach zylindrokonisch. Diese Art des Bohrungsverlaufs gibt dem Instrument seinen typischen Klang.
Prinzipiell klingen Blockflöten mit weiterer Bohrung wärmer, voller, grundtöniger und damit ensemblefähiger als Instrumente mit engerer Innenbohrung.
Für welche Musik kann das Instrument am besten eingesetzt werden
Ahorn ist hervorragend geeignet für Instrumente, die im Ensemble, im chorischen Spiel und solistisch verwendet werden.
An wen richtet sich diese Blockflöte
Hieraus ergibt es sich, dass Blockflöten aus Ahorn sich besonders für ambitionierte Laien und fortgeschrittene SpielerInnen eignen. Eine weitere allgemeingültige Gesetzmäßigkeit ist, dass ein besseres Instrument das Lernen in den meisten Fällen angenehmer gestaltet, als ein gütemäßig minderwertiges.

The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the musician's breath is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of the instrument'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
extremely important
for the variation possibilities of the available sound spectra of the recorder. The windway of the Mollenhauer 5022-MOLL recorder is shaped as follows: curved, conical.Conical windways accelerate the airflow more than cylindrical ones. Windways are extremely complex in their design and many parameters influence each other.
Fingering
The Mollenhauer 5022-MOLL model is made in fingering: Baroque double hole.
Multiple parts
The number of components in a recorder has an extraordinary influence on the way in which it can be handled in terms of ease of assembly on the one hand and compact transport on the other. A point that becomes particularly important when larger or multiple instruments are taken along.

The recorder with the model name: 754AH-KOB from Kobliczek is an instrument that is always fun to play.
This is largely due to the clever combination of the above-average model design in symbiosis with the advantages of the maple material used.
The extraordinary qualities of this instrument's material are striking. The characteristics can be roughly described as follows, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. This is why the sound of recorders is perceived and described differently by each individual: Maple: Warm and clear, somewhat thinner than pear.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is . 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 focussing on Renaissance and folk music, other styles are possible.
Who is this instrument aimed at
This means that maple instruments are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. A second rule of thumb to bear in mind is that a high-quality instrument generally makes learning progress more enjoyable than a seemingly inexpensive bargain.
