The recorder is a wind instrument with a rich history and diverse forms. Originally developed from the wooden folk pipe, it is known for its simple construction, where the player blows into the mouthpiece and the air vibrates in the instrument. The method of sound creation is similar to the sound creation in organ pipes.  Holes drilled in the recorder tube are covered or uncovered by the player's fingers (with flaps on larger instruments), thus regulating the pitch.
There are many types of recorder, which vary in size, range and pitch. The most common recorders include the soprano (descant) recorder (C major tuning), the alto (treble) recorder (F major tuning), the tenor recorder (C major tuning) and the bass recorder (F major tuning). Historical instruments can also be tuned in other keys such as G major, D major or A major. Recorders are valued for their ability to authentically interpret early music and are also popular in contemporary classical music, which can also use many alternative playing techniques.
Recorder playing is also used as a means of improving breathing difficulties in children. By playing, children learn to control their breathing better, the airways are cleared and lung capacity is exercised. Flute playing is therefore often used in kindergartens or schools.
