 Re: Recorder - Sorry if too off-topic

As Gordon says there are some inherant tuning issues with recorders. But by accepting the more limited dynamic range than with the clarinet (feeble attempt to get back 'on topic') and by using alternative sharp/flat fingerings, shading/half holing they can be played in tune. They are evil little beasts once into nasty key signatures mostly because of all the cross fingerings needed.

*steps down from soap box.......I must learn not to jump on it whenever the subject of recorder intonation comes up.
