The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the breath of the musician is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is the basis of the recorders sound. At the labium, the air stream is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging flow stimulates the air in the body of the instrument. And this is the origin of the recorder sound. This is the reason why the labium must never be damaged. The same rule applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the musical shaping ability of the instrument.

The windway of the model 211A-AUL of Aulos has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical shaped windways.
