  • Ever wanted to see how a wooden recorder is built? I visited AAFAB recorder factory and took my Team Recorder camera along, to see how a humble block of wood is transformed into a working instrument!
    This video shows how the 'school soprano' model of instrument is produced. Every type of recorder will have a different process of course, with concert models taking much longer!
    Huge thanks to Anton Cornelissen and the team at AAFAB recorder factory for having me for the day. If you're in the Netherlands, or want to order your own recorder, visit their website: www.aafab.nl

    I once did a factory tour at Moeck in Celle. They let you build your own student recorder and hand it from station to station, which is super cool. Your final factory-tour-recorder will be unvarnished and therefore one of a kind.

      Also, maybe it's worth mentioning that paraffin embedded wood doesn't need to be oiled, so it's a great choice for a low-maintenance student instrument.

    Wow! I'm awed, really! I was impressed by the close tolerances and quality control this factory, obviously, adhere to zealously in the manufacturing of their instruments. Very professional! This makes me want to buy one of their products to try out -- perhaps even to become my "daily driver," as it were. Thank you, Sarah, for another great video, which was very informative and educational.

    "paraffin" has 2 meanings. In the US, it refers to candle wax. In the UK, it's what Americans call "kerosene".
    I suspect the wax would be the preferred substance to boil the wood in, as it doesn't stink and doesn't seep at room temperature.
    Thoughts?

    • @alancantor9437
      @alancantor9437 7 лет назад +24

      Good question. The short answer is that power tools were powered by humans. The key tool for making recorders is the lathe. The lathe originated around 1300 BCE in Egypt. For thousands of years, lathes were operated by two people: one turned the wheel, the other worked the wood. In the Middle Ages, pedal operated lathes were developed, which allowed a single person to rotate the wood while working with both hands. The pedal was connected to a pole, often a sapling, so these tools were called "spring pole" lathes. Spring pole lathes were still commonly used until the early 20th century.
      A great time-saver enjoyed by today's recorder builders is the windway cutting machine. During the golden age of recorders (early 1700s) makers meticulously carved the windway through the opening at the end of the head joint using files and scrapers. It must have taken hours. With a modern windway cutter, the process takes less than a minute.

      I tried doing one of the top 40 songs in my country with my jakarta yamaha ensamble recorder (now disbanded) and it attracts more people to actually buy recorders (we were performing in front of the music store) and try getting into recorder lessons than playing classical songs.

    • @honeychurchgipsy6
      @honeychurchgipsy6 7 лет назад

      On recorders that have double holes you simply cover one of the holes if you want a semitone (G# for the higher holes, and F# for the lower on Alto - D# and C# for soprano), and both holes for the whole tone (G and F on alto - D and C on sop.)On recorders with single holes you have to cover half of the hole to get the same notes.
