Do you need to purchase a soprano recorder? You cannot go wrong with a good plastic recorder, which is usually much better sounding than a poor wooden one. Yamaha and Aulos make very good plastic sopranos. Consider purchasing an instrument from one of our business partners:  

Von Huene Workshop (The Early Music Shop of New England): (617) 277-8690
Lazar’s Early Music: (770) 366-8596

The models below are recommended as quality instruments at modest prices.
