The Aulos descant recorder 205A Robin (also known as ‘Soprano’ recorder) is made of highly resilient ABS plastic and has an excellent response with strong, full sound throughout the register. It is great to use in the classroom for solo and ensemble playing.

Descant recorders are the most well-known models in the recorder family and are commonly used as first instruments in schools due to their relatively small finger spacing and ease of playing. They make for excellent ensemble instruments. Occupying the c'' – d'''' register, they are usually played as the highest voice in four-part ensembles.
