About this document
Recorder: A Guide for Amateur Makers by Paulo Pereira de Freitas is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The recorder has evolved since the fourteenth century and remains popular among amateur players, particularly the alto model due to its loudness and range. Renaissance recorders were typically made from a single piece of wood with a specific bore design, while modern baroque recorders follow traditional dimensions but are crafted for contemporary pitch. The construction of a recorder requires precision, especially in the top joint, and various design modifications can enhance its acoustic properties.
