[MR] Plastic Renaissance style recorder

[Marybeth Lavrakas]

I recently purchased a plastic "Dream" soprano wide bore recorder made by Mollenhauer. It's very inexpensive ($25) and plays decently, and is available with both single and double holes. I broke down and bought it because I got tired of waiting to get a good deal on a Renaissance style recorder on ebay, and it just makes me twitchy to play plastic recorders that look so obviously OOP as the standard baroque. So I'm passing on the info...unfortunately, the company is currently only offering the soprano in plastic, but their "Dream" renaissance recorders in wood are significanly less expensive than Kynsekers et al.
