When most people hear the word “recorder”, they think of those cheap plastic instruments used by elementary schools to introduce kids to music. However, it takes a lot of skill to play the recorder well. Aulos and Yamaha both make some excellent higher-end plastic recorders. A surprising number of theatre shows have recorder parts in them.
