Introducing the Aulos 205A Robin descant recorder

The Aulos 205A descant recorder is one of our most popular instruments. It’s sold in huge numbers to schools, colleges and students of all ages - it is the classic school recorder, with a number of design features that make it reliable, consistent and, above all, excellent value for money.

Aulos have patented what they call their 'cavity wall' design - this makes each recorder not only light, which is especially advantageous for younger players, but also strong and durable.

The 205 is a three-piece instrument, a classic design separated into the head, body, and foot for easy cleaning. It also comes with its own cleaning rod and yellow corduroy material bag to protect the recorder in storage.

Perfect for schools and institutions

The instrument has a double sleeve head-joint so the top part of the recorder cannot work loose, removing any chance of air leaks from the instrument, resulting in consistent tuning - particularly important for group or classroom playing.

It has an adjustable thumb rest, which makes it easy to find a comfortable playing position.

The instrument also benefits from a curved windway, which means it is less likely to produce those shrill notes often associated with an overblown recorder.

The descant range

The recorder has a range from the C above middle C to the D two octaves above, with more experienced players able to produce higher notes still. This makes it a great tool for teaching music to a wide range of students of varying skill levels.

The sound this recorder produces is warm and clear, so it’s no surprise that it’s one of the most recommended recorders by teachers.

I had this recorder when I was a child, so I knew it would be the best for my daughter. Very solid and sounds wonderful. I've had mine over 30 years, so I know they last well!

Accurate description of the product. I bought the recorder because it specified being made in Japan. Other retailers did not detail where it was made so I chose your music store. My daughter seems to enjoy the recorder :-)
