Adris dream recorder is a renaissance style recorder in soft wood. Build for playing in a different style of music than the Moeck. I love mine and use it for folk, renaissance and medieval music. I also love my barok style hard wood Mollenhauer but I use it differently.
I bought this Yamaha recorder but the hole spacing is wide. Unfortunately, my hands and fingers hurt when playing the instrument. Why doesn't Yamaha produce another comfort model with additional keys?
I found both of them interesting in different ways. The yamaha does seem to be a bit more rounded in the lower end.. but.. i find it has the “yamaha” “squeeky / plastic” sound on the higher notes. - If i close my eyes. i can easily tell the yamaha recorders in general. they tend to have a slight shrill overtones on high notes even going back to the cheap altos they make.
Sorry … But Bach wrote the Partita a minor , as like almost every other piece for wind instruments with violin in his mind…. As to say legato. This staccato clumping jumping style really doesn’t fit and sounds awkward.
As you know it’s easy to criticise. Quite another to demonstrate, I so look forward to your performance being posted. Show us all how it’s done. Otherwise this is just a low grade troll. Meantime, I found the comparison of the recorders interesting and helpful.
Da ich gerade eine Yamaha mit einer Zen-On und Zen-On Bresson vergleiche, ist es interessant zu hören, wie die Yamaha im Vergleich mit dieser Holzflöte klingt. Wirklich kaum ein Unterschied. Sehr überzeugend. Schön auch, dass die Vorführung für sich spricht, ohne große Worte!
How do you rate the ergonomics of playing low notes compared to e.g. Alulos 211 or 311? Is the flute suitable for people with small hands? Could you please record some songs on this flute? Regards
I have tried a plastic Mollenhauer Adri's dream 0119r today. The sound is beautiful, still: I couldn't play C, C# and D of the 2nd octave and I had troubles with A, B and Bb of the same octave. I have never had this trouble with Aulos and Yamaha instruments. That seems strange to me.
I started on the Aulos and later on switched to the Yamaha. In my opinion the differences between the two is not so noticeable for beginners, but the Yamaha is great for more advanced musicians as it is very flexible on the high F to C. The Aulos squeeks much easier there as well as on the low f and g. Overall the differences are more noticeable for the player than the audience.
I bought the 4119 and was not impressed. I switched to the yamaha ecodear soprano and was able to play notes more in tune and reach the higher notes much easier.
I have had my Aulos straight F Bass , that is with cap and bocal, since 1994, still love to play it and I can play the entire range as if it was a shorter recorder i did make a couple of adjustments to it early on though, one was a thin layer of cork cut to fit inside the cap to both keep moisture collection (mildew too) at bay and direct the airflow better into the channel , as there is otherwise a significant gap .. secondly was to add a ball of tape to the thumb rest to improve position and posture in the right hand .. I also swing the bocal to the right a bit thus playing it diagonally to facilitate reading the sheet music (like a bassoon)
2:18 is Van Eyck's Daphne (Doen Daphne d'over schoone Maeght), you can download the collection "Der Fluyten Lust-hof" in the old notation, or find a modern version.
The dreamflute essentially is derived form a renaissance recorder, and not a baroque recorder. It is indened to be an affordable modern recorder, that you use in combination with modern instruments. baroque recorders ar available in may different qualities, the cheaper ones of pear wood are OK for beginners, but if you are more advanced, get something better. Both types have their specific use, it is not orne or the other, but as a recorder player you like to have several different recorders.
Hi, thank you for the comparison. Can the dream recorder be used to play Baroque pieces? I refer both to the soprano and alto fream recorders. I also would like to know if playing the dream recorder is not harder than playing the rottenburgh, because of the bigger holes, the 7th fixed hole (more so in the alto), and the need to blow more air.
I also use the same instrument. But with these two instruments in particular, the height difference between the thumb and index finger of the left hand is quite different, right? Doesn't that bother you?
I could not tell the difference. For every point one has to make there will be a contradiction of it. When it boils right down each and every musical instrument is so personal and even if they fail in the very slightest in one area, they make up for it in others. I do however listen yo a lot of advice, cannot afford Moecks so I have ordered a Yamaha ABS plastic 300 series alto recorder. It will do for me for the price.
I bought this Aulos 503b flute. I wanted to ask you: Is it normal for there to be a slight concavity inside the third piece of the flute, near hole 7? Does the second octave E note sound a little hoarse to you? My soprano flute has those details. I have the tenor flute and it doesn't have that.
@@nickperpirakis2211 When I look inside the third piece of the flute, near the 7th double hole, there is a concavity. This concavity looks like they wanted to make a third hole but didn't. It seemed like a strange element to me.
Thanks for your answer. I see that the sound of the tenor 511 is much better than the soprano 503. I am waiting for an aulos 509 flute, and I will see if the quality is similar to the tenor. I have the aulos 309 and its sound is not very reliable in some high notes, which does not happen with the tenor, I returned the aulos 209 since its bass was too weak. From what I have been seeing in comments, I see that of the sinfonia series only the tenor, alto and garklein are the most recommended.
