I found some great facts about the recorder and wondered if anyone else knew them!

Here is the first question:

One of the earliest surviving recorders was found in the Netherlands. When was it made?

I believe it was made in the 14th century. In a castle moat in Dordrecht.

FOUND in a castle moat, definitely not made there!
