Yamaha YRS-401 flauta dulce soprano Ecodear con digitación alemana

General

These days, there are ways of producing biomass-based plastic that isn't so taxing for the environment as its petroleum-based counterpart. Yamaha is the first manufacturer who has taken this eco-friendly plant-based material called Ecodear, and turned it into musical instruments. Take the Yamaha YRS-401, for instance, a soprano recorder that produces a soft, round tone similar to that of a wooden recorder. Additional benefits of this incredible instrument include enhanced breath response and high-register control.

Looks

To keep up the natural theme, Yamaha has given the YRS-401 the yellow and white hues of corn on the cob. The recorder's mouthpiece has an arched windway that produces slight resistance when you play, enhancing breath control and allowing for better expression and projection. This Yamaha recorder features German fingering with double 6th and 7th holes, and comes with an equally environmentally friendly cotton cloth case.
