The recorder is a family of woodwind musical instruments of the group known as fipple flutes or internal duct flutes—whistle-like instruments which include the tin whistle. The recorder is end-blown and the mouth of the instrument is constricted by a wooden plug, known as a block or fipple.[1] It is distinguished from other members of the family by having holes for seven fingers (the lower one or two often doubled to facilitate the production of semitones) and one for the thumb of the uppermost hand. The bore of the recorder can be tapered slightly, being widest at the mouthpiece end and narrowest towards the foot on Baroque recorders. Renaissance-era instruments also taper, but generally have more nearly cylindrical bores. Recorders can be made out of wood, plastic or ivory.[2]

Nokkahuilu on puupuhallinperhe, joka kuuluu ... ryhmään ... . Nokkahuilua soitetaan puhaltamalla soittimen yläpäähän, nokkaan, jossa on BLOCKIN rajoittama ilmatie. Nokkahuilun yläpuolella on reiät seitsemälle sormelle sekä alapuolella yksi reikä peukalolle. Nokkahuilun BORE on useimmiten ylhäältä alas epätasaisesti kapeneva, mutta muunkinlaisia muotoja esiintyy sekä historiallisissa että moderneissa instrumenteissa. Nokkahuiluja valmistetaan pääasiassa muovista ja puusta.[2]
The recorder was popular in medieval times through the baroque era, but declined in the 18th century in favour of orchestral woodwind instruments, such as the flute, oboe, and clarinet. During its heyday, the recorder was traditionally associated with pastoral scenes, miraculous events, funerals, marriages and amorous scenes. Images of recorders can be found in literature and artwork associated with all of these. Purcell, Bach, Telemann and Vivaldi used the recorder to suggest shepherds and imitate birds in their music, a theme that continued in 20th-century music.[3]
The recorder was revived in the 20th century, partly in the pursuit of historically informed performance of early music, but also because of its suitability as a simple instrument for teaching music and its appeal to amateur players. Today, it is sometimes thought of as a child's instrument, but there are many professional players who demonstrate the instrument's full solo range.[4] The sound of the recorder is remarkably clear and sweet, partly because of the lack of upper harmonics and predominance of odd harmonics in the sound.[5]
