Technical details of the Gebr. Schneider C-tenor recorder 40803b

The recorder is made of light-colored, natural maple wood, which is known for its warm, clear sound and pleasant feel. The natural character of the wood gives the instrument an elegant appearance and a particularly well-balanced tone, which blends well into ensembles but can also impress as a solo instrument.

The German fingering is particularly beginner-friendly and is used in many music schools. The fingering system is complemented by a metal key which makes it easier to close the low note - particularly advantageous for players with smaller hands or limited finger mobility.

The 3-part construction (headjoint, middle joint, footjoint) allows precise adjustment of the tuning and makes it easier to clean, transport and store the flute. This keeps the instrument in top condition even with regular use.
