Suzuki Andes 25F - worlds first 'recorder' keyboard.
This unique Suzuki Musical Instrument looks like a Melodion but sounds like a Flute...or rather 25 flutes! As the name suggests the resulting tone is reminiscent of the Andes Pipes. It is fully polyphonic and is easy to play chords with very little effort. Beautiful tonal variations are available when applying different breath control techniques.

Owners Comments:
"The Andes' small plastic shell conceals a whole world of sound—one perfectly suited to the adventurous player or creator. I found that thinking of it as a polyphonic wind instrument more than as a keyboard instrument helped me to access its unexpectedly expansive vocabulary. Not only does it permit you to shape phrases with varied attacks and subtle pitch inflections (you can bend as much as a semitone in either direction!), it also means that you've got a vast array of special effects at your fingertips. Send your breath through it the right way and you've got percussive beeps, warping tones, vibrant whistles, and all manner of strange air sonorities. I see it almost like an acoustic, wind-driven synthesizer" - Nick Storring
