This chart is a general guide, but by no means a definitive or complete fingering chart for the recorder, an impossible task. Rather, it is the basis for a much more complex fingering system, which is still being added to today. Some fonts show miniature glyphs of complete recorder fingering charts in TrueType format. [51]
The F alto is a non-transposing instrument, though its basic scale is in F, that is, a fifth lower than the soprano recorder and a fourth higher than the tenor (both with a basic scale in C). So-called F fingerings are therefore used, as with the bassoon or the low register of the clarinet, in contrast to the C fingerings used for most other ...
I think the issue with the fingering chart had to do with posting copyrighted material. But, I did not copy the chart I made up for the Esperanto page. I created the chart from my own knowledge of the fingerings. However, if it would make people feel better, I can put in a reference to a source that goes into a lot of detail about recorder ...
The soprano recorder in C, also known as the descant, is the third-smallest instrument of the modern recorder family and is usually played as the highest voice in four-part ensembles (SATB = soprano, alto, tenor, bass). Since its finger spacing is relatively small, it is often used in music education for children first learning to play an ...
A bass recorder is a wind instrument in F 3 that belongs to the family of recorders. The bass recorder plays an octave lower than the alto or treble recorder. In the recorder family it stands in between the tenor recorder and C great-bass (or quart-bass) recorder. Due to the length of the instrument, the lowest tone, F, requires a key.
The garklein recorder in C, also known as the sopranissimo recorder or piccolo recorder, is the smallest size of the recorder family. Its range is C 6 –A 7 (C 8). [citation needed] The name garklein is German for "quite small", and is also sometimes used to describe the sopranino in G. [1] Although some modern German makers use the single-word form Garkleinflötlein, this is without ...

Cross-fingering is any fingering, "requiring a closed hole or holes below an open one". [1]: 228 "Opening successive tone holes in woodwind instruments shortens the standing wave in the bore. However, the standing wave propagates past the first open hole, so its frequency can be affected by closing other tone holes further downstream.
