Is this jazz

Love the bass recorder. Would like to see more videos like this. Optional cuckoo 😆

Is this a basset or great bass?

Gorgeous! Loving the Gershwin!

Fabulous fun!

Não faz pra ganhoto

Wow

Brilliant! Yes, in the fourth grade I was taught the fundamentals of music on a plastic recorder called the “Tonette”. It was the early 1960’s here in the States and to tie into the space race, the Tonette resembled a cartoon version of a rocket ship. You can imagine what a classroom of this caterwauling was like! My grandson is currently studying on a plastic school recorder and so the horror continues!

I wonder if the bent plastic recorders spent decades in a blistering hot attic. Though it's possible they were dumped out of the mold before the plastic had really set. Something with a Renaissance-style bore would work better for schools. You wouldn't get the same weird difference tones.

From where do I get this epic traditional flutes now a days??

Thank you. What about the Alto recorder please? Ii just starting to learn on it (am a senior lady….

I watched this video and although you hardly played your Dragon recorder I was immediatly struck with its sound. I checked out your website and I am not a discerning musician but even I could tell straightaway that your Dragon recorder is an excellent insturment, with a beautiful sound. It is certinly up there with the best if not the best. I only play at home for my own contentment (...and frustration!) and cannot justify buying one but I just wanted to say that as an observation of the quality of your recorder.

Ps. My book, Obedience training for recorders, would help. Available via Google

If you visualise the end of the windway, the top and bottom surfaces, windway and block, both end with a right angle. The chamfers are small 45 degree cuts across that right angle. Block is easy, windway, you can see with a small mirror on a stick. Cut this with a scalpel. This will stabilise the lower notes, in theory, size for an alto about 1mm

Hey Tim - I don't know if you can help me out. I'm trying to make a tenor recorder - but I can't get the low notes! When I try to play the low notes it only hits the first harmonic above. Is this a common problem - is there a simple fix?

You are a very talented craftsman of the "old school", Tim. I really enjoyed hearing about the history and description of the mediaeval instruments. Thank you. God bless you with a joyous and peaceful Christmas and a bright New Year.

When reading/playing recorders in G or D does one use a different fingering scheme than with those in C and F?

Very interesting! The Tartu model, especially the modified one with tempered scale, reminds me a bit of the Ganassi model. As are the internal chambers of these two recorders, are they cylindrical or have some taper, narrowing, widening in the bell etc. What is the range of the notes of these two flutes? Congratulations for your research and for the construction of these splendid specimens.

I love the sound of the Tartu original and Tartu G and F

Gorgeous! 🥰

I look forward to seeing if they respond after seeing your video!

Put your website in your description - that's how all the pro youtubers do it

you are funny but i prefer my fiddle

had to watch another one.... love watching you in fact

The labium was very thin and pointing upwards. I just pushed it down with my finger and it worked better

Now you made me curious to know what little thing you did! To the „block“, the labium, some finger holes? Was it even baroque fingering or German - your video did not include your right pinky to watch…

Oh dear, maybe this is an opportunity lost, but I am not very sympathetic. I find the attitude of people messing about with 3D printing quite irritating, and often presented as a way of undermining the efforts of those who can make things manually.

Edible saxaphone

Hi Tim, is it any wonder kids gave up the recorder in school and teachers encouraged them onto other woodwind. Great post.

Is this jazz coz I don't like jazz but I seem to like this

Dear Gawd we have a marvellous heathen amongst us

That's so cool! Does it need high blowing speed/ pressure? I recently found a safety wistle on my hiking bag built into one of the plastic clicky lock things. But they don't make sound unless blown with a very high pressure which is tricky in the first place. So wondering if it's common as they get smaller they get trickier to play?

If you whittling tiny recorder in you pocket knife ....it sounds 🎶✨ great ✨🎶 ( and remember put one extra hole for you lower lip for half notes )

Cärrot sãxophoné

Wow! Beautiful. The recorder has a wonderful sound.

Christopher Lee?

yes, but the groovy tunes looks really cool ! ;)

Correct me if im wrong but isnt that a saxophone with carrots on top of it and a bellpepper for the thing? No hate just askin

Hi there everyone! Great image quality! Thanks for the video. I want to ask you the next. There are two types of bass recorder. One like on this video and other that is "bent". It seems that that is bent is easier to read the scores whereas that on this video seems to block the view. I'm an amateur player and need to see the notes. Am I certainty? Thanks in advance.

Amazing!

⚠✝ You've been (warned)! Damn atheists' better run to your crying safe rooms! Since my God is real and shortly to return I feel cheated. Paganini never had TH-cam. Mr. Cranmore, your legacy is not limited by technology, and so could be safely saved for infinite time. If that occurs, my God is therefore unreal. Wouldn't it be exciting to watch Mr. Stradivarius? I'm glad you've shared this valuable craft and what it feels to actually do the work. It's timeless in its value especially to future( ? ) makers. SS, 10/30/2022✝.

@_01:06 I started laughing too much to continue!

Just wow! Andy prays we keep her oiled well, just beautiful design by Mr. Loretto. Damn fine video explaining in detail the windway cutting machines functioning. Just too cool.

Very cool. The end is so fitting for October!

Completely great. I'm without anything more to say.

Sounds surprising similar to the clarinets you buy on gear4music

The bell is now a bell pepper

Sounds like bears necessities :)

Seems hard to make a recorder. Also the wood needs to be seasoned right? I was wanting to obtain an ebony moeck recorder and I probably should have bought one years ago as now they are very hard to come by. In saying g that I would like someone to build me a recorder soprano which a432 resonance. My rosewood moeck soprano is a429. The ebony is a harder wood so I wanted to see the difference been the harder wood may be used for fast passages as the rosewood will be more mellow. Indeed the tenor recorder you played has a beautiful sound. I would like a tenor without any levers. I also own an alto recorder which does have a very mellow sound also made from rosewood and it's a moeck. My sopranino recorder is a mollenhour. Sorry incorrect spelling. I'm sure you will e familiar with this make. I could get up and have a look. Nope no information. The moeck indeed is a rosewood 429 rottenburg. Freidrick von huene. Jean hyacinth Joseph Brussels 1672 1765 that's what it says on the label. Flautist Dolce. Indeed it is my favourite. Also the alto I quite like also.

Thanks. I met Eugene once at his place at Pau that was somehow ( difficult to say why) a very impressive moment. I am fortunate enough to play one of his flute.
