Thursday, February 19, 2009 For today's music lesson, I am going to tell you about the blockflute and the recorder.A recorder is a whistle-like instrument. The recorder is end-blown and the mouth of the instrument is constricted by a wooden plug, known as a block or fipple. It is distinguished from other members of the family by having holes for seven fingers and one for the thumb of the uppermost hand. The bore of the recorder is tapered slightly, being widest at the mouthpiece end of it and narrowest at the top, flared almost like a trumpet at the bottom. A blockflute is similar to a recorder except that a recorder is played like a clarinet but a blockflute is not played like a clarinet. Do you see any difference between them?
