Hampshire Recorder Sinfonia


Samples of different sized recorders used in the HRS


The following samples were played by our Assistant Musical Director, Helen Hooker, at Droxford Parish Church - Hampshire in December 2000.
We would like to thank the Rector of Droxford Church for kindly allowing us to record in fabulous surroundings and for having warmed the building up for us!

All recordings have been reproduced to near CD quality and as such the MPEG Layer3 (mp3) format is the only suitable means of electronic distribution.  If your computer is currently unable to playback these files, we recommend dowloading and installing WinAmp. Full details are available from their website.
