The windway of the recorder

The windway is the area in the headpiece of the recorder where the breath is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the determining element of the sound of the recorder. In interaction with 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 applies to the windway. Otherwise suffer the response and sound of the recorder.

The windway of the model YRB-61-YAM of Yamaha has this windway shape: Curved, conical.
Conical shaped windways accelerate the air leaf more than cylindrical windways.
Never violate windway and labium! Their meaning for the voicing is uncommon complex in their geometric shaping. Damages here often lead to a total loss!
