Interview in "WINDKANAL"

Early this year, I had an appointment with the recorder player and writer Vincenta Prüger from Salzburg/Austria. This resulted in a nice article in the new issue of “WINDKANAL” - the German magazine around the recorder and its music.

For me it had been a great pleasure. Should you be able to read German language - maybe you will have joy with it too.

The current issue WINDKANAL 1/24 is available here - as epaper as well as in printed form.

Thanks so much, dear Vincenta!
Thanks so much, dear WINDKANAL team!

The story of Stephan Blezinger Recorder Workshop

For nearly fourty years now I have been engaged with making handmade recordcers after historic models.
With recorder making in general even longer.

Here you will find a series of articles describing this long story.

I ask you to understand that these articles are available only in German language.

If you are curious - have a look!

Or you would like to prepare your presonal visit in advance?

A couple of things can be sorted outvia screen rairly well:

- talkiong about the revision of your recorder
- lisen and look for available instruments

Recorders and Corona

Update November 2022

Be welcome!

For the moment there are no legal restrictions for your visit in my workshop.

However we all may take care for each other:
Please come to my worksho only when you are not infected with Covid or when you feel to be ill!

If you want to test recorders:

I will present only disinfected instruments to you
- and I will disinfect them again after being played.
The same is for instruments you will give for repair to me.

So we all are some more safe from unnecessary infections.

Lassen Sie uns feiern!

Es war eine Menge Arbeit, die neue Werkstatt einzurichten - nun möchte ich gerne mit Ihnen feiern:

No contact possible by email?

During the past weeks there has been a problem with my email account that was not visible for me immediately.

Obviously a couple of persons were unable to send mesages to my mail address This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. - sometimes they received an error notification such as "service unavailable" or similar.

I am sorry for that - and I assume and hope this problem will have been solved now.

Should you have been unable to reach me by email I ask you to try it again now.

For the case this would cause problems also now I ask you to contact me by phone or postal mail.

Have many thanks for your assistance!

Friedrich von Huene - Obituary

It was not until the evening of Whitsunday that I learnt of the passing of the American recorder maker Friedrich von Huene the previous week, on ‘Stockstadt Sunday’.

I have been deeply moved by this news.

Friedrich von Huene was one of the most eminent pioneers of historic recorder making. He was a tireless researcher into old instruments whom we can thank for so much knowledge about their secrets that, these days, we take for granted.

In gratitude and mourn i say my personal goodbye to him.
