Mollenhauer 5206 Denner Alto Recorder

The Denner alto recorder has good intonation and a nice mellow tone throughout the low and middle registers. I have not yet tried the highest register. However, it is not much better than my plastic Aulos Haka alto recorder (which is also great), but the Denner has a more mellow tone.

I use it as a solo instrument and its very reliable. The sound is not so strong but speaks very well, especially in the higher register.

I enjoy the sound created by the pearwood. The notes are clear and loud. It takes practice to make the lower range sound correctly. The mid- and upper-range sounds are great and easy to produce. Compared to the pearwood soprano, the alto took more time to break in.

It is a good Alto Recorder, solid and not very difficult to be played.

This recorder has a stunningly resonant and rich sound. I like it so much, I'll be ordering another soon. I decided to pick up the recorder because I have played the saxophone for years but it is too loud to be enjoyable as I am always worried I will bother my family when I play. The recorder has very similar fingering and feels natural to me.

I smell a nice tree and nice core sound.

Great sound from this love it
