The windway of a recorder

The windway is the area in the recorder head where the blowing air of the musician is formed into a sheet of air. This air leaf is the central starting point of the recorders sound. 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. 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 instrument.

The windway of the recorder YRB-44C-YAM of Yamaha has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical windways accelerate breathing air more than cylindrical shaped windways.
Never violate windway and labium! Their meaning for the instrument is very complex in their geometric shape. Even minor damages here often lead to a total loss!
