pentatonic stars-recorder in 440 Hz d''-e'''
Product information "pentatonic stars-recorder in 440 Hz d''-e'''"
The pentatonic soprano (descant) recorder for beginners in classroom music-making.
The 50080 belongs to the group of combination recorders.
The combination recorders are a recorder system that was developed / invented by Kunath Instrumentenbau especially for Waldorf schools.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is cylindroconical and wider than other pentatonic recorders. 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.
Who is this instrument aimed at?
School classes who want to start with the pentatonic range and then later switch to the diatonic / chromatic range at a favourable price.
The favourable switch is made possible by the combination recorder system.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder in which the air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus 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 response and sound of the recorder.
The model 50080 has a windway that is straight and cylindrical in shape.
The volume of the instrument can be reduced with a Sound strip (optional accessory) if required.
Fingering
The instrument pentatonic stars-recorder 50080 is manufactured in 7-tone pentatonic fingering
Multiple parts
The pentatonic stars-recorder 50080 is made in two parts.
This concept - and the special design features of the stars-recorder - make it possible to use it as a "combination recorder".
