How do you play recoder?

Answer 1

The recorder, like all wind instruments, is a single-note instrument, meaning that you can play only one note at a time. A chord is defined as three or more notes played at the same time, so you would need three recorders playing different notes to effect a chord. Chords can be played on poyphonic (multi-note) instruments such as guitar, piano, harp and keyboard, but not generally on bowed or wind instruments, such as violin, cello, Oboe Trumpet and recorder except when played together.
