=Playing microtonal music on recorders= From a posting by afmmjr on the MMM forum ([[http://launch.groups.yahoo.com/group/MakeMicroMusic/message/12048|this one]]): It is really easy to play quartertones on a recorder. Honestly. One uses the right alternate fingerings. There is one pitch that requires one to lift a leg so as to point the tube towards full closure (lowering the instrument a quartertone, to F 1/4 flat).
