At Orpheus Music, we have many years of experience in recorders for Waldorf schools. There are many things to consider when deciding on recorders for Steiner education such as:

What are other schools using? - - Deciding between wooden vs plastic recorders? - - The pros and cons of pentatonic vs diatonic recorders? - - What is the most affordable option for parents?

This is why we created the in-depth guide - Choosing a Recorder for Steiner Education.
