We love to see the recorder used in all sorts of musical contexts, whether that be historically-informed early music, or radical experimental contemporary music (or anything in between!). So today's challenge is all about collaborating with other musicians and artists to feature the recorder in exciting musical settings.
We want to see you collaborate with a friend (or friends!) on a video. You choose the music, and it doesn't matter which instrument(s) or discipline your collaborator(s) use. So long as there's at least one recorder featured, you're welcome to enter!
The winning video will be awarded TWO £50 GBP gift cards for The Early Music Shop: one for you, and one for your collaborator(s).
Entries close at 12pm BST next Monday 21 August. We can't wait to see how you all use your recorders!

The Sound of Recorder Music!
Each day this month we're highlighting an audio clip of a recorder from our extensive range. Yamaha's 402B "Ecodear" Soprano is a special instrument owing to its manufacture from plant-based “Ecodear” plastic, which produces a mellow, centered tone that is similar to that of wooden recorders. Listen to the clips below or follow this link to find out more about this instrument.
