Mollenhauer Denner Edition Alto in satinwood, a=415. This is a hand-crafted recorderafter Jacob Denner (16811735).
The bore shape is based on concepts that were developed in the Denner family workshop, in particular by Jacob Denner. The Denner family from Nuremberg were one of the most important and influentialwoodwind makers. Modern processes have made it possible to achieve a sound quality that was previously only a characteristic of low-pitch baroque instruments.Balanced and stable intonation across all the registersare the basis for the versatility ofthe refined sound.
The characteristically directvoicing combines lightness and brilliance with focused airflow. An extensive amount of time is dedicatedto crafting these exclusive instruments. Every instrument is voiced over a long period of time periods of intense playing alternate with phases of fine tuning. In this way, Mollenhauer can closely monitor and adjust the development of every instrument.
