Recorder 31 Day 5 | Sarah Jeffery: Recorders in Unusual Keys

Welcome back to a new week at Recorder31, and thank you to everyone who's engaged with our posts during the first weekend! Today we're joined by one of the recorder world's biggest online stars, Team Recorder's Sarah Jeffery, as she introduces recorders in unusual keys, including D, G and Bb!

Featuring instruments by Mollenhauer, Takeyama, Küng and Kobliczek, Sarah demonstrates the sound of each instrument and talks about why and when you may find instruments in these keys useful!

We'll let Sarah do the rest of the talking, but if you like what you see/hear, feel free to explore these instruments further, as they are all available to purchase from The Early Music Shop.

Click here to view the full collection of instruments featured in the video (including different woods where available!).

Sarah is already on her second appearance of Recorder31, having been part of BLOCK4's interview at the weekend. We are very pleased to be friends of Team Recorder and are very grateful to Sarah for returning to make another video for us!
