    Aulos A507B Sopranino 3-Piece Recorder

    • I already have a set of wooden ones but this one is really good and has a nice tone
    • Attention to aesthetic design as well as excellent tone and intonation set this resin instrument apart from similarly-priced models of other brands
    • It has a nice mellow tone, and hits even the upper register nicely
    • While a resin recorder will never replicate the warm, mellow tone of a wooden, handmade instrument, the savings (often several thousand $'s), and the ease of playing/maintenance will handily make-up for the deficit
    • I'm quite happy with this little one's tone quality and ease of playing
    • It plays very well intune and has a really nice tone!
    • (Baroque) Sopranino, 3-piece recorder; otherwise known as the English common flute; or, German blockflote; and, often associated with color-filled pastoral scenes; has a combination of wonderful tone, matchless intonation and fantastic ease of playing.
    • As with other Aulos resin recorders, the Sopranino offers a surprisingly clear, rich, sweet tone
    • This recorder has a very good tone devoid of shrillness, and excellent tuning, response and evenness throughout the range.
    • For a plastic instrument, the tone is quite pleasant (if necessarily shrill--it is a sopranino after all), and it doesn't clog often or easily (like my plastic Yamaha alto does)
