The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the headpiece of the recorder where the blowing air is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is of one of the most important elements of the sound production. In interaction with the labium, the air stream is very quickly alternately directed inwards and outwards. This swinging flow stimulates the air in the bore. And this is the origin of the recorder tone. This is the reason why the labium must never be damaged. The same applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the response and sound of the instrument.

The windway of the model YRA-802-YAM of Yamaha has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical windways.
