The recorder with the model number: 1119B-MOLL made by Mollenhauer is a companion that makes music fun both in the classroom and on stage. The instrument owes this to the well thought-out combination of the carefully considered construction concept in symbiosis with the advantages of the wood/plastic combination used. This material fascinates with its extraordinary advantages. The characteristics can best be described in the following words: Wood/plastic combination: clear, warm sound. The scale The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical and wider on average. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower inner bore. What music is the recorder best suited to? The wood/plastic combination is predestined for instruments that are used in all styles. Who is this recorder aimed at? This means that instruments made of a wood/plastic combination are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. A second generally applicable basic rule is that a higher quality instrument naturally makes learning progress more enjoyable than an instrument of inferior quality. The windway of the recorder The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is one of the most important elements in the sound production of a recorder. At the labium, the air blade produces the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore one of the defining principles for the musical creativity of the recorder. The windway of the Mollenhauer 1119B-MOLL instrument is shaped as follows: curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breath more than cylindrical ones. Windways are extremely complex in their design and many parameters interact. Fingering The Mollenhauer 1119B-MOLL instrument is made in the following fingering: Baroque double hole. Construction of the body The number of components of a recorder fundamentally determines the way in which the woodwind instrument can be easily handled in terms of ease of grip and ease of transport. This is particularly important when transporting larger instruments or several instruments. Leaders of large playing groups will agree with us. Packaging and accessories The recorder is supplied as standard with a bag and the following accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, cork grease, care instructions, fingering chart Hygiene tips If the recorder is used by several players, it is advisable to clean the windway repeatedly in a sterile manner for your own protection. Flautisept has proved its worth for this purpose. You can find Flautisept in our collection. It works with the following surfaces: Untreated wooden surfaces, varnished surfaces, ABS plastics, varnished surfaces, linseed oil surfaces, waxed surfaces, RESONA, spirit-stained surfaces However, to be on the safe side, test on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that the product does not cause any adverse changes to your recorder. Optional information on keys It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places that are comfortable and easy to play with your fingers. For acoustic reasons, some tone holes on low instruments in particular are not ergonomically accessible. Keys are fitted to such instruments to make playing easier or even possible in the first place. The 1119B-MOLL instrument has the following keys: . This makes it easy to play, even for players with smaller hands. Advice on the way to a new recorder How to find a new instrument easily Find out all you can!

The instrument with the model number: 4119-MOLL made by Mollenhauer is a companion that brings lasting joy when playing music. This characteristic is due to the skilful combination of the ingenious model in fine tuning with the sound characteristics of the pear wood used. This material makes a strikingly pleasant impression on the instrument thanks to its special advantages. The features can be characterised as follows: Pear wood: Soft, choral sound. Suitable for playing in a group. The scale The inner bore of the instrument is slightly cylindroconical and wider on average. This type of bore gives the recorder its typical sound. In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than models with a narrower scale. What music can the recorder be used for? Pearwood is ideal for instruments used in all styles. Who is the instrument aimed at? It follows from the above that pearwood instruments are particularly suitable for ambitious amateurs and advanced players. An additional basic rule worth noting is that in most cases a higher-quality instrument makes music-making easier than a simple one. The windway of a recorder The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the air is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of a recorder's sound. In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore extremely relevant for the response and sound of the recorder. The windway of the Mollenhauer 4119-MOLL recorder is constructed as follows: Curved, conical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the breathing air more than cylindrical ones. Windways are complex in their geometric shape and many parameters influence each other. Fingering The Mollenhauer 4119-MOLL recorder is made in the fingering: Baroque double hole. Construction method The construction of a recorder strongly influences the way in which the woodwind instrument can be handled in terms of ease of grip on the one hand and compact transport on the other. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments. Recorder orchestra leaders will agree with us. Packaging and accessories The instrument is supplied as standard with a bag and useful accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, cork grease, care instructions, fingering chart Hygiene tips If the recorder is rented out frequently, it is advisable to sterilise the blowing area if necessary to prevent the transmission of diseases.

The recorder with the article number: TE-4118-MOLL from Mollenhauer is a musical tool that brings joy to music-making time and time again. The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the clever combination of the well-considered design in fine tuning with the sound characteristics of the plum wood (Prunus) used. The special sound characteristics of this instrument are strikingly pleasing. The special features can best be described in the following words, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. This is why the typical sound of recorders is perceived and described by each person in slightly different ways: Prunus, plum, damson: overtone-rich, slightly nasal sound. Goes very well with singing voices. The scale The inner bore of the instrument is cylindroconical and very wide. This type of bore gives the instrument its typical sound. In principle, recorders with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than instruments with a narrower scale. What music can the recorder be used for Plum wood (Prunus) is particularly suitable for instruments that are used in ensembles, in choral playing and as a solo instrument.
