To see this is to appreciate the fine skill of the artisan flute maker.

THE best recorder-making video I have ever seen Bravissimo!

[@freiheit3566]

Yeah, just watched the von Huene video. Interesting discussion but focused too much on details and presentation was not very polished. This video really demonstrates how a recorder is carefully and lovingly crafted!

[@outerrim]

Just got a very nice soprano recorder in grenadilla made by Seiji from Hirao. Really beautiful work and the recorder sounds and feels soooo good !!!!

[@luckybarrel7829]

Amazing and educational! Thanks for taking us through the process. You're extremely talented!

[@charliebowen5071]

So that’s how notes are tuned! Many thanks and beautiful instruments

Wonderful. Thank you

[@wilsonMelo6]

Such a fine work.

[@Joy_of_Music_Kate]

This process is really beautiful

[@danyelnicholas]

Fantastic survey, thank you. It seems that only those recorders were everything is made by hand ever sound remotely like the original instruments. A good craftsman is still more precise than a machine? At least in some (crucial) regards…

[@freiheit3566]

Excellent video! Please make more, perhaps one interviewing Mr Hirao and son. About being an performer and craftsman

[@julien23lastchristmas2]

Bravo !! 👏👍❤ best job

[@DieterLo1]

Thanks for the very helpful lesson, how the sound of the recorder can be improved. Often thought about it as layman now found the answers.

[@PetrieRobert]

I make wooden flutes, and watching this is humbling. Great respect to you.

[@sekipyong]

工学部時代に家業で木工旋盤を扱っていた同級生が居た。彼はリコーダーを作り、チューニングもしていた。フランス・ブリッヘンが来日したときに、見せたとか言っていたが、どのような評価を受けたのだろう。

[@mizmamajoe]

Beautiful instrument! ❤👍

[@zapjs]

Hi, first of all I would like to thank this beautiful educational video about Recorders, your work is very inspiring. What type of stain and oil do you use in this process? I'm using Recorders and Fujara wind-way making videos for other kinda instrument from my country and also instruments that reproduces bird sounds too and wanted to try using this kind of method that you're using it.
