History of the Recorder

My first and ongoing project is the study and historical performance of music using archeologically informed instruments and techniques. For example, for Medieval music I use recorders modeled after a small 14th century instrument recently unearthed in Tartu, Estonia. The playing requirements and sound of these recorders is quite unique; they seem designed precisely for the music of the time. The same goes for my other instruments as well. Being that much closer to such early people & their culture enlivens the music; it’s a bit of forgotten beauty reborn into the present. Contact.

After many years I'm once again studying with John Tyson. The wonders of the internet are making it possible!
