Alto recorder Elody Bride

'Premiere’ of a new type of recorder: An instrument based on the Modern Harmonic Alto with innovative cool design, powerful tone and provision for connection for use as an electric recorder.

Function: The Elody can be played in two ways.

Wood type: Pearwood Airbrush-Design, gloss varnish

Fingering: Baroque in the first and second oktave, the notes in the third octave require different fingerings

Fingering chart: download

Keys: with E-foot and triple key for E/F/F sharp

Range: e¹–es⁴

Pitch: a¹ = 440 Hz at least

Thumb rest: an innovative thumb support made from soft synthetic rubber is an integral part of every Elody. The skin-friendly material provides the right hand thumb with a surprisingly stable grip without disturbing agility.

Block from Synpor-wood composite: This special block provides the instrument with a new musical 'durability': the core of the block consists of an artificial imitation wood product – synpor, that absorbs the moisture of breath condensation without swelling. The synpor core is embedded into a solid, naturally grown, cedar wood shell.

Optionally, an active cable with an XLR plug (item no. 6161) can also be used for the Elody.
