Subject: RE: recorder music
Nice to see recorders get some praise for a change. I know they've had some flak in some on-line communities which I think is pretty bizarre, to be honest.

Piers Plowman wrote: A couple of months ago I bought a recorder and became addicted. I've got a soprano (treble), an alto (descant), and a sopranino and I am sorely tempted to buy a tenor. Then I could be a whole recorder ensemble all by myself, if I could just fit them all into my mouth.

A few years ago I saw jazzer Julian Argüelles make a pretty good attempt at doing that! Actually, just a couple (descants I think) but he was simply amazing.
