Hohner B95832 Alegra 3-piece soprano recorder German, blue

General

A first introduction to playing a musical instrument is often a recorder. The Hohner B95832 is ideally suited for this purpose as the holes are placed with children's hands in mind. A special feature of this model is the combination of wood and plastic. A pearwood centre section and base have been used for the beautiful wood sound. The special antibacterial headpiece is made of blue plastic. This headpiece contains silver ions that prevent microbes from adhering to nanoparticles in the headpiece.

German bore

Recorders can have either a German or a baroque bore. The B95832 is fitted with a German bore. With a German bore, the fourth hole from the top is larger than the fifth, which is easier for the beginner. To prevent the flute from rolling off the table, for instance, a special Roll Stop system has been fitted. A useful accessory is the bag that comes with the instrument.

• Note: The box shows three recorders, but only the blue version is supplied.
