A sophisticated bore, and the matter as well, a particularly selected and worked grenadilla wood, have made possible the genesis of a particular sonority; noble and living matter, the wood itself gives the "Recital" this warm, rich and round tone, with an exceptional presence (diameter of the joints is bigger than a traditional model, by two millimetres). A significant reserve of power and a very condensed voice favour a generous playing.
A really expressive instrument for those who are looking for "a sound". A Bb and A set with an original conception for a rare quality acoustic result.
