Yamaha YRS-23 Soprano Recorder, German Fingering, Natural 1.00 x 2.00 x 13.75

TO AMAZON I'M NEED TO STOP WRITING NOW. I JUST HOPE THAT I WILL BE IN A DAY OR TWO. I'M SICK NOW - P J LANCELOTTIHI TO ALL - MY REVIEW IS ABOUT RECORDERS. TO START OUT, I BOUGHT 2 OF THE . Yamaha YRS-23Y Soprano Recorder, Key of C .. THESE ARE PERFECT, AT THE PRICE AND QUALITY, JUST FOR STARTERS. I'M SO HAPPY ABOUT GETTING THEM. THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE IS THAT ALL THE MUSIC STORES IN MY AREA DOESN'T SELL THEM. THEN, AFTER HEARING THIS, HE MUST BE NOT SELLING THEM BECAUSE OF GREAT PRICES WE GET AT AMAZON. SINCE AMAZON HAD MY 2 RECORDERS WERE DELIVERED, TO MY FRONT DOOR, ON A SUNDAY!NOW, I WANT TO SAY MORE ABOUT MY OWN, PERSONAL RECORDERS. THAT WAS IN THE 1970'S, AND I WAS A NUN, LIVING IN A CATHOLIC MONASTERY. THERE WERE PLACES WHERE OTHERS WOULD TO PLAY. SOMEONE SAID IT WAS "CHAMBER MUSIC," SO I WAS ABLE TO BUY MY FIRST RECORDER. IT WAS MADE BY MOECK. IN THOSE DAYS THE PRICE OF THINGS WERE VERY DIFFERENT. I KNEW I WANTED THE MOECK, SO I WENT BACK TO THAT MUSIC STORE AND I WAS ABLE TO BUY IT. I DON'T REMEMBER THE PRICES OF THE MOECK AND TRADE IN, BUT I DO REMEMBER THAT IT COST $1,000. BUT FOR ME TO SPEND THAT

This Yamaha recorder has a clean, soft tone and is really easy to play, even for a complete beginner. It feels sturdy and not cheap like some other plastic models. Nice that it comes with a cloth case too.

Calidad Yamaha!!! Bonita

So I got it for my music classes I had to play in a band so I started to practice but it takes time to learn it. If you’re not good with instruments this may take a couple of months to learn. I mean that’s the same for all instruments you don’t learn them quick. But other than that, this product is pretty good.

I liked this because it helps my sister practice her skills on it

As I am writing this review, my son is happily practicing some tune he learned in music class which I just cannot recognize. It sounds like hot cross buns mixed with jingle bells, mixed with a healthy dose of not quite being in tune. I am simultaneously happy that he is enjoying this instrument and exploring music, and frightened that his current fad with the recorder might be long lasting.Like most of the parents purchasing this, I received notice from my son's school that this exact recorder must be purchased for music class. So I dutifully did. The recorder is make of very nice plastic, has a very pleasing color that looks like ivory, and has this uncanny ability to convince anybody to pick it up and blow into it as if they can magically play a little tune. I tried, my wife tried, and neither one of us could do anything with it other than make each other's ears bleed.The recorder comes in a nice canvas storage pouch. The minute I took it out of the pouch and looked at it, it instantly reminded me of my time in grade school music class blowing away at this thing. Ahhh, memories.The recorder appears to be pretty solid. So far it has survived the abuse sustained by being in my son's back pack like a champ. Hopefully it'll last until his younger sister needs it for music class in a couple years.

Ami hijo le pidieron una flauta para la escuela. Salio muy buena. Y facil de limpiar. Perfecta

I wish I could say I enjoyed this product, however, I purchased it for my nine-year-old’s music class. I don’t really understand why we continue to subject parents to the rehearsal and practice of the recorder when it is literally one of the worst frequencies of instruments known to man. I will give this a 10 out of 10, simply for the fact that it performs in the way that it is intended. I will, however apologize to any other parent that is required to purchase this on behalf of their kid. Stay strong. I suggest pairing this purchase with a pair of noise canceling headphones.
