Product information "Aulos, "Symphony", sopranino in f'', baroque double hole, plastic"
The recorder with the model number: 507B-AUL made by Aulos is an instrument that provides tireless fun in the classroom and on stage.
This characteristic is largely due to the clever marriage of the unique construction concept in fine tuning with the sound characteristics of the plastic material used.
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 bore.
For which musical styles can the instrument be best used?
Plastic is particularly suitable for instruments that are mainly used for choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are also possible.Who the instrument is aimed at
It follows from the above that plastic instruments are particularly suitable for beginners. A second rule worth noting is that in most cases, a high-quality instrument makes learning progress easier than a poor-quality one.The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is one of the most important elements in the sound production of a recorder. In interaction with the labium, this air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore very influential on the sound and response of the recorder.
The windway of the 507B-AUL instrument from Aulos is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breath air more than cylindrical ones.
Windways are complex in their geometric shape and many parameters influence each other.
Fingering
The Aulos 507B-AUL recorder is supplied with the following fingering: Baroque double hole.
Multiple parts
The number of individual parts of a musical instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder can be handled easily in terms of ease of grip and compact transport during daily use.

Experienced ensemble players can tell you a thing or two about this.
