Folklora Soprano recorder in b'
The Folklora Soprano recorder is our special instrument for anyone who wants to play together with b-tuned instruments. An entire tone lower than the Soprano recorder in c, this b’ instrument sounds much darker and more powerful. Though hailing from Swiss folk music, it is also popular among professional musicians who value its very own, special sound.
