Recorder31 Day 31 | Sarah Jeffery's Guide to Sopraninos

For one final Recorder31 treat in this year's series, we're delighted to have partnered once again with Team Recorder's Sarah Jeffery, who has filmed a comprehensive guide to choosing a sopranino recorder from our extensive range. Watch the video below and let us know which sopranino sounds most appealing to you!

At the recent Recorder Summer School, where our Saltaire Retail Manager Peter took a huge selection of instruments for course participants to try and buy, we let Sarah Jeffery loose with a collection of 15 sopranino recorders! Featuring instruments by Moeck, Mollenhauer, Küng and Aura, in today's final Recorder31 feature, Sarah introduces us to them all, comparing the different woods, sonic properties and other features.

Watch the video below, and visit Sarah's Team Recorder YouTube Channel to find out more about her fantastic video series:
