The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the headpiece of the recorder where the breath is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is the nucleus of the recorders sound. In interaction with 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 range of musical expressiveness of the recorder.

The windway of the model N 2110 G-DOL of Dolmetsch has this windway shape: .
Conical shaped windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical windways.
