[edit] The Recorder a double reed instrument?
The Recorder is not a double reed instrument (double reed instruments have a mouthpiece functioning in similiar way to oboe and bassoon reeds). Although some scholars think that the instruments ancient greeks called flutes might have been. Satúrnus 16:55, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- As far as I know, early recorders did not have double reeds or reeds at all. There's no mention in the recorder article. I've moved it to the Wind instrument section. My apologies if this is in error. MarkBuckles (talk) 17:55, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
