Hopf, "Kindergarten flute", in g', 6 notes, maple
€45.00*
The recorder with the model number: 26-HOP made by Hopf is a musical tool that is always a joy to play.
The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the special combination of the unique instrument model in fine tuning with the tone colours of the maple material used.
This material inspires the instrument with its special advantages. The special features can be characterised as follows: Maple: Warm and clear, slightly thinner than pear wood.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical. This type of bore gives the model its typical sound.
In principle, instruments with a wider bore sound warmer, fuller, more fundamental and therefore more suitable for ensembles than recorders with a narrower scale.
Which musical styles are best suited to the recorder
Maple is particularly suitable for instruments that are used in the .
Who is the instrument aimed at?
The above facts show that maple recorders are particularly suitable for. Another important rule is that a more sophisticated instrument generally makes learning less complicated than a supposedly cheap one.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the musician's breath is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the central starting point of the recorder's sound production.
In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the defining characteristics
for the range of artistic applications of the recorder. The windway of the Hopf 26-HOP instrument is shaped as follows: Straight cylindrical.Conical windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are of course extremely complex in their design and many parameters are influenced by each other.
Fingering
The Hopf 26-HOP model is supplied in the following fingering: Pentatonic.
Construction method
The number of components of an instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder can be handled during daily use, both in terms of ease of assembly and ease of transport. This is particularly important when transporting larger or multiple instruments.
Just ask veteran ensemble leaders.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument is supplied as standard with a bag and the following accessories: Cleaning rod, drying cloth, care instructions, fingering chart
Hygiene tips

Huber, "Kindergarten flute", in g, 6 notes, pear tree
€59.00*
The instrument with the model name: 115-HUB manufactured by Huber is a recorder that can provide lasting fun while playing.
The instrument owes this special feature mainly to the skilful combination of the pioneering construction concept with the sound characteristics of the pear wood used.
The unique qualities of the material used in this instrument are strikingly impressive. The special properties can be characterised as follows, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be inadequately described in words. For this reason, each person will perceive and describe the details of the typical material sound of recorders a little differently: Pear: Soft, choral sound. Suitable for playing in a group.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is cylindrical. 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.
For which music can the instrument be best used
Pearwood is particularly suitable for instruments that are used in the .
Who is this instrument aimed at?
This means that pearwood recorders are particularly suitable for. An additional rule worth noting is that a better instrument generally makes learning more enjoyable than a seemingly inexpensive offer.
The windway of a recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder where the blowing air is moulded into a thin sheet of air. This air blade is the basis of the recorder's sound production.
In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
one of the basic characteristics
for the musical expressiveness of the recorder. The windway of the Huber 115-HUB instrument is constructed as follows: Straight cylindrical.Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are extremely complex in their geometric design and many parameters play together.
Fingering
The Huber 115-HUB model is manufactured in the following fingering: Pentatonic.
Construction method
The number of individual parts of a woodwind instrument has a fundamental influence on the way in which the recorder can be handled in terms of ease of grip on the one hand and ease of transport on the other. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes several) instruments.
Recorder choir directors know how useful good and compact recorder transport packaging is. Provided that the instruments can be easily disassembled.
Packaging and accessories

Kunath, "classy-recorder", soprano, pentatonic, 7 notes, 432Hz, pear wood
€69.00*
The special soprano (descant) recorder for classroom music-making. The classy-recorder belongs to the group of combination recorders from the Klassenflöten model series. The combination recorders are a recorder system that was developed / invented by Kunath Instrumentenbau especially for Waldorf schools.
The advantage of the combination-recorders is that a headjoint can be combined with different lower bodies (pentatonic, chromatic).This means that school classes that start with pentatonic and then switch to the "normal" soprano fingering can simply buy a soprano lower body - and save the money for another headjoint. Parents love the concept!
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the instrument is cylindroconical and wider than normal school recorders.
Who this instrument is aimed at
Individual beginners, school classes and folk musicians.

What music is the recorder best suited to?
Pearwood is particularly suitable for instruments that are used in orchestras.
Who is this instrument aimed at?
This means that pearwood recorders are particularly suitable for. Another rule of thumb is that a more sophisticated instrument naturally makes learning more enjoyable than what at first glance appears to be an inexpensive option.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the head of the instrument where the musician's breath is moulded into a sheet of air. This air blade is the determining element in the sound production of the instrument.
In interaction with the labium, this air blade creates the fundamental vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
extremely important
for the response and sound of the recorder. The windway of the WACM19147-MOLL instrument from Mollenhauer is shaped as follows: .Conically shaped windways accelerate the air blade more than cylindrical ones. Windways are complex in their geometric shape and many parameters interact.
Fingering
The Mollenhauer WACM19147-MOLL model is supplied in fingering: Pentatonic.
Multiple parts
The number of individual parts of an instrument has a fundamental influence on the way in which the recorder is handled in terms of ease of assembly and compact transport. This is particularly important when transporting larger or multiple instruments.
Experienced ensemble players can tell you a thing or two about this.
Packaging and accessories
The recorder is supplied as standard with the appropriate accessories:
Hygiene tips
If the instrument is played by several people, you should consider cleaning the blowing area sterilely at regular intervals to maintain cleanliness.
Flautisept has proved its worth in such cases. Flautisept is available in our collection.
It works with the following surfaces:
Spirit-stained surfacesRESONAABS plasticsUntreated wood surfacesWaxed surfacesLacquered surfacesLinseed oil surfacesLacquered surfaces
To be on the safe side, test on an inconspicuous area before use to ensure that the product does not leave any unwanted marks on your recorder.
Optional information on keys
It is not always possible to drill tone holes in places in the instrument body that are comfortable and easy to play with your fingers. Especially with bass recorders, tone holes are not ergonomically accessible for acoustic reasons. Keys are fitted to such instruments to make playing much easier or even possible in the first place.
The WACM19147-MOLL instrument has the following keys: . This makes it easy to play even for players with smaller hands.

The recorder with the model designation: 19145-MOLL manufactured by Mollenhauer is a musical tool that can be used in lessons as well as on stage to create tireless fun.
The instrument owes this characteristic mainly to the special combination of the pioneering model in fine tuning with the expressive possibilities of the pearwood material used.
The material used for this instrument is characterised by its unique qualities. The properties can be characterised as follows, whereby it is in the nature of things that sounds can only ever be described very inadequately with words. Therefore, the sound of recorders is perceived and described slightly differently by each person: Pear: Soft, choral sound. Suitable for playing in a group.
The scale
The geometry of the inner bore of the recorder is cylindrical. 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 inner bore.
What music can the instrument be used for
Pear wood is particularly suitable for recorders that are used in.
Who is this instrument aimed at?
This means that pearwood recorders are particularly suitable for beginners. Another thing to bear in mind is that a better instrument will in most cases make playing easier than a seemingly inexpensive bargain.
The windway of the recorder
The windway is the area in the headjoint of the recorder 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 the instrument.
In interaction with the labium, the air blade creates the vibration that generates the flute sound. The shape of the windway is therefore
extraordinarily relevant
for the variation possibilities of the available sound spectra of the recorder. The windway of the instrument 19145-MOLL by Mollenhauer is shaped as follows: curved, cylindrical.Conical windways accelerate the breath more than cylindrically shaped ones. Windways are extremely complex in their geometric design and many parameters interact.
Fingering
The Mollenhauer 19145-MOLL recorder is offered in the following fingering: Pentatonic.
Construction of the body
The number of components of a woodwind instrument strongly influences the way in which the recorder can be handled in terms of ease of assembly and safe transport. This is a point that should not be underestimated, especially when transporting larger (and sometimes multiple) instruments.
Directors of large ensembles know how useful good and compact recorder packaging is. Provided the instruments can be easily disassembled.
Packaging and accessories
The instrument 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 instrument is shared, we recommend that you disinfect the blowing area at regular intervals for your own protection.
