The with the article number: 5741-MOE constructed by Moeck is a companion, the in daily use always can make joy.
This property is due to the masterful merging of the unique instrument model in combination with the advantages of the material Maple.

This material produces in the instrument a conspicuous uniqueness, by its materialtypical characteristics. The properties can be described, whereas it is in the nature of things that sounds can always be described very inadequately with words. Therefore the sound of recorders is perceived and described by each person in details a bit uniquely. We use these words: Maple: Warm and clear, slightly thinner than pearwood

The bore

The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is light cylindroconical and narrower on average. This kind of bore shape grants the recorder such a typical sound.
In principle, instruments with wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and thus more suitable for ensembles than models with narrower scale.

Maple is particularly for woodwinds used for: focus on choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible.

To whom is this musical instrument addressed?

For the above facts it follows that recorders made of Maple are especially for ambitious amateurs and advanced players suitable. A second important principle is that a quality instrument makes the learning naturally beautiful than a presumed low-cost bargain.

The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the instrument headpiece where the blowing air is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the nucleus of tone production. At the labium, the air flow is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging stream stimulates the air in the bore. 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 range of artistic applicability of the recorder.

The windway of the recorder 5741-MOE of Moeck has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical windways.
Never underestimate windway and labium! Their meaning for the function is uncommon complex in their geometric shaping. Damages here often lead to a total loss!
