Recorders come in a range of different keys, and for recorder players that means: TRANSPOSING! Or, learning a new set of fingerings and reading the music in a different way, depending on the recorder you are playing.

But how? Why? Which keys will I encounter? How can I tackle this seemingly monumental task? I will try and explain everything and give you some hints and tips for easier transposition!

Note: Recorders come in different tunings too (442 Hz modern pitch, 415 Hz baroque pitch etc) - and these do not need to be transposed, they will just sound higher or lower :)

Resources mentioned:
- 'Altblockflötenreise' by Daniel Hellbach
- 'Der Fluyten Lust Hof' by Jacob van Eyck
- Renaissance consort music can be downloaded for free at www.imslp.org

In this video I play on a 440 soprano by Yamaha (mine sounds more like 438, haha), a 440 G alto by Stephan Blezinger, a 440 F alto by Yoav Ran, and a 415 voiceflute by Tim Cranmore.
