    I feel like everyone used to play recorder in primary school, and this has created lots of negative thoughts around the recorder. More people should open their minds, and see that the recorder can be played beautifully when played correctly. Wonderful playing, sounds superb!

      I know what you mean.
      At one time, the recorder was considered a serious and respected instrument.
      I tried to learn how to play when I learned the above, but by then my arthritis made it too difficult. So I'm trying to learn to play the ocarina. A good ocarina can produce beautiful sounds, as well.

    Love this Song, Played on the Aulos A511B Tenor. Well Done!!. Love that Tenor, it is my Favorite out of the three i have. Well, let me re-phrase that, Each one of my Tenor's is my favorite one while iam play them. Love this Style of Music for the Tenor recorder, and all Renaissance and Baroque style music, and Modern interpretations of those era's.

    You sold me to the Tenor within seconds.
    I have ordered aYamaha 304B as it was available and as good as the Aulos. ( Now I am in for it).
    Thank you and YES... please play some more soothing tenor recorder music.
    I like recorders as they are not as loud as flutes that sometimes sends me deaf.
    Also easier to blow and does not annoy the neighbours....

      Thanks for your tips. I've tried a few different mouvements, yes. But, I'll keep trying! The problem is cramps in my wrists and some fingers. Did you have to practice a lot, meaning lots of hours/days before finding the right angles and so ?
      I had kind of the same problem with the guitar. It wasn't the distances, but I had bad cramping and complete blocages, especially with the string hand, which usually is the left hand (for right handed people). One day, I decided to switch the strings over!! Because I just got fed up by being so stuck. And guess what, it worked!! Yay! No more cramps, and blocages. It came from the brain hemispheres!
      Mentally, I'm left-handed, alas have been forced to be right-handed. But I do a lot of things with my left hand, appart from the forced writing. But, I can also write with my left hand, which I never trained, it's natural although less fluid because no practice. But, I don't think there are left-handed flutes around! 🤭
