      @wessenwolf 5 років тому +9

      The shit with recorders is that the basics are pretty easy to learn. At least the basics. Decent quality ones cheaply available, tuned in c and all that. And thats why many ppl learn them by force, at least in germany a great amount of people had to kearn the recorder in school altho they didnt rly want to and thus hated that instrument.

      Being a jack of all trades can be good, but you will NEVER be able to master any of them. If you truly want to be a woodwind doubler, you should start ASAP. So you can have many years of practice behind you.

    Josh, I really think that you should show us all of your instruments! Like you should have a video that shows each instrument individually and possibly a sample of how it sounds solo. You should do it right after you get that bassoon! Also, I am an oboe player and I think that your oboes are soon cool!!! 😄 😝

After learning clarinet and developing my lung capacity I never had the restraint to play an alto recorder, I always over blew. Dang, being able to play all of these instruments well must've taken a lot of practice. I'm sure you've spent so much time that you've nearly gone insane playing scales and thirds on all of these instruments
