This air leaf is of one of the most important elements of the instruments tone. 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 tone. This is the reason why the labium must never be damaged. The same rule applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the variability of the available sound spectra of the recorder.
