Renaissance Consort tenor in d at A466 by Adrian Brown 'Crescent' stamp

Stolen: 12 Jul 2026 - 22.00h - Bristol Airport, UK

Description of Instrument:

Last seen on board KLM flight from Amsterdam to Bristol, on Sunday 12th July at 10pm, this very unique and valuable Adrian Brown renaissance consort recorder, a tenor in D at A=466hz, is now presumed stolen, possibly by a fellow passenger or within the airport's lost property system. The photograph here is a 'sister' instrument from the same consort, so the markings will be a little different, but otherwise exactly as pictured. The instrument is 56cm long and has a crescent shaped stamp. No serial number. It is in a dark blue canvas case like the one pictured, with a gold corduroy lining. It is not designed to play as a solo instrument, and is pitched much higher than standard consort pitch, so sadly not really of general use, as it is very non-standard and built to be used as part of a set. The crescent stamp is also a little lower than Adrian’s normal position, which should make the instrument more readily identifiable.
