The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the instrument headpiece where the breath is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the central starting point of the instruments tone. In interaction with the labium, the air flow is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging stream 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 not be damaged in any case. The same applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the response and sound of the recorder.

The windway of the model 5334-MOE of Moeck has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical shaped windways.
Never violate windway and labium! Their meaning for the sound is very complex in their design. Damages here often lead to a total loss!
