This young amateur orchestra was recently created following two courses and an orchestral workshop led by Agnès Blanche Marc as part of the Salon International de Musique Ancienne "Les Polyfolies de la Flûte à bec et son Univers" organized by the Recordara association (www.recordara.com).

The flutes used range from the sopranino (24 cm) to the sub-contrabass (2.20 m in height but 3.50 m in pipe length, the latter corresponding to the range of the string double bass), giving an ambitus of of 6 octaves.

The orchestra gives all recorder enthusiasts the opportunity to make the instrument better known, to experience a dimension of sound that is not possible with trio or quartet playing, and to enjoy some very pleasant moments together in rehearsals and/or concerts. and/or concerts.
