Key Features
Authentic Sound & Easy to Start
The Venova delivers a rich, expressive tone like a saxophone and a full blowing sensation, spanning a range of two octaves even with its simple structure. Its light and compact design makes it highly portable, while the washable ABS resin body and recorder-like fingering make it incredibly easy to start, even for those entirely new to wind instruments.
Use of "Branched Pipe"
With a "branched pipe" added to the cylindrical bore, the tone of a conical bore instrument (e.g., saxophone) is achieved in a compact size.
Meandering Pipe
A meandering pipe is used to shrink the distance between tone holes for a simplified structure to minimize the use of keys. The result is an easy fingering system similar to recorders.
Durable, Easy-to-Handle Material
The body made with ABS resin is durable and washable with water. With a durable resin reed and synthetic pads (for key parts), cleaning is extremely easy.
Learning Materials Included
In addition to the owner’s manual, the “Let’s Play Venova!” guidebook includes tips on posture, sound production, and controlling pitch and tone. It also contains sample songs so you can have fun while learning.
