The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the instrument headpiece where the breath of the musician is formed into a thin 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 not be damaged in any case. The same rule applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the musical shaping ability of the recorder.

The windway of the model 0119R-MOLL of Mollenhauer has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate breathing air more than cylindrical windways.
