... Do you think a recorder might be good for celtic music? Celtic music goes really well with lots of beer! kj.
Usually a "tin-whistle" or a regular concert or wooden flute is what is used in Celtic music. The recorder is more for Baroque? early classical? music.
For Celtic music on tin whistles look here http://www.ceolas.org/instruments/Tin.Whistle (plain text "webpage" from 1994! ) and here http://www.clarketinwhistle.com/ (the classic brand mentioned )
Darn. Are the fingerings similar? kj.
