The instrument with the model number: YRA-402B-YAM built by Yamaha is a musical tool that is as much fun in the classroom as it is on stage. The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the clever combination of the well thought-out model in combination with the advantages of the plastic material used. The unique qualities of this instrument's material make it a pleasantly convincing choice. The special features can best be described in the following words, although it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. This is why the sound of recorders is perceived and described slightly differently by each person: . The scale The inner bore of the recorder is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the model its typical sound. In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than recorders with a narrower scale. What music is the instrument best suited to? Plastic is predestined for instruments that are mainly used for choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible. Who is this recorder aimed at? It follows that plastic instruments are particularly suitable for beginners. A rule of thumb to bear in mind is that a more sophisticated instrument will naturally make learning progress more enriching than a less expensive one. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the head of the recorder where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the nucleus of the instrument's sound. In interaction with the labium, the vibration that generates the flute sound is created from this air blade. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the basic characteristics for the sound and response of the recorder. The windway of the Yamaha YRA-402B-YAM instrument is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conical windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrically shaped ones. Windways are extremely complex in their design and many parameters influence each other. Fingering The Yamaha YRA-402B-YAM recorder is made in the fingering style: Baroque double hole. Construction method The construction of a recorder has a fundamental influence on the way in which the woodwind instrument is handled during daily use in terms of ease of assembly on the one hand and safe transport on the other. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments. Recorder orchestra leaders will agree with us. Packaging and accessories The model is supplied as standard with a bag and the following accessories: Wiper rod, cork grease, fingering chart, care instructions Hygiene tips If the recorder is rented out frequently, we recommend that you disinfect the blowing area at regular intervals for your own protection. The care product Flautisept has proven to be a good disinfectant. You can find Flautisept in our collection. It works with the following surfaces: Linseed oil surfacesWaxed surfacesLacquered surfacesUntreated wood surfacesRESONAGlazed surfacesABS plasticsSpirit-stained surfaces However, it is essential that you test the product on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that it does not cause any adverse changes to your instrument. Optional information on keys It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places that are comfortable and easy to reach with your fingers. For acoustic reasons, some tone holes on bass instruments in particular are not ergonomically accessible. On such instruments, keys are fitted by the instrument maker to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place. The YRA-402B-YAM instrument has the following keys: . This means that it can also be played ergonomically well by players with smaller hands. Recommendations on the way to a new recorder How to easily find your next instrument Seek expert advice!

The instrument with the model designation: YRA-302BIII-YAM manufactured by Yamaha is a companion that makes playing music fun again and again. This feature is largely due to the clever combination of the well-considered design in fine tuning with the tone colours of the plastic material used. The unique sound characteristics of this instrument are strikingly impressive. The properties can be described as follows: . The scale The geometry of the inner bore of the recorder is slightly cylindroconical. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower scale. What music is the instrument best suited to? Plastic is particularly suitable for recorders focussing on choral playing, recorder ensembles and orchestras, other styles are possible. Who this recorder is aimed at This means that plastic instruments are particularly suitable for beginners. Another basic rule worth noting is that a better instrument naturally makes learning more enriching than a supposedly cheap one. The windway of a recorder The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the musician's blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the central starting point for the sound of a recorder. In interaction with the labium, this air blade creates the fundamental vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the defining principles for the artistic usability of the recorder. The windway of the Yamaha YRA-302BIII-YAM instrument is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones. Due to their geometric shape, windways are very complex and many parameters are influenced by each other. Fingering The Yamaha YRA-302BIII-YAM recorder is made in the fingering style: Baroque double hole. Multiple parts The number of parts of a recorder strongly influences the way in which it can be handled in terms of ease of assembly on the one hand and compact transport on the other. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments. Just ask long-serving ensemble managers.
