Choosing a wooden recorder: WHICH WOOD?!| Team Recorder

I have partnered with The Early Music Shop in London to bring you videos and live streams designed to help you select the right recorder for you!
Which wood should you choose for your new recorder? There are many different woods and it can get overwhelming. I take you through no less than seven popular choices, demonstrating their sound, and explaining everything from price to durability to allergies!

Ad disclosure: this video is sponsored by the Early Music Shop. All instruments are on loan, to be returned after filming.

/// LIVE STREAM!
I will be doing a live stream from the Early Music Shop channel, comparing a range of comfort tenors! Modifications such as keys, slings and bent neck recorder to provide greater physical accessibility.
Come along and hear me play them all - join the chat and request specific notes, pieces, effects or styles of music, or ask me any questions about the instruments.
The live stream will be at 5pm UK time, Tuesday May 19.
