This bag is a great conversation starter to lighten the mood when we have new comers to our local recorder group. More importantly, it helped shape my grandkids' desire to play the recorder! They saw it as a fun introduction to the recorder and continued as a fun way to start each practice session.
This bag will not hold an alto as it was designed for a soprano. I have on occasion also placed my sopranino in with my soprano. If I carry my wood soprano however, I would not put the sopranino in with it. The small pocket fits a small cork grease container and a duponol bottle but the top sticks out a little. The best thing about the pocket is that the elastic helps keep the cork grease and duponol containers from falling out of the bag when you open it. Highly recommend the Goat bag.
