This review is for the exceptional service at Thomann and the fine products they carry. I purchased the Mollenhauer Denner alto recorder in olive as a special treat to myself. I am just returning to playing the recorder after a 20 yr hiatus. The recorder is beautiful! It makes a lovely sound, is responsive and a joy to play. Equally impressive to me was the experience I had with Thomann. The order process was simple and efficient. The recorder arrived in my small town in the USA within 3 days of the order! The pricing was terrific. And I had a technical question about the recorder, which was answered promptly by a Thomann representative. Overall, an exceptional experience. Worthy of 6 stars!

A good choice for reliable practice instrument
MAC Edinburgh 05.12.2020
This is a very pretty wood and nice, light instrument in the hand.
From first arrival it was remarkably resistant to condensation - a very important quality.
It's sound is pleasant but not remarkable. (I have a Kung Marsyas in Plumwood that has a far more beautiful sound, but becomes hoarse easily).
This instrument is a very good practice recorder, easy to play right across the range including the upper register. This recorder is a good choice for a learner and I think a good buy.

Absolutely beautiful

Both the look and feel of this olivewood alto are a delight. The wood-grain is simply beautiful. The recorder is light to hold in the hand and very comfortable. I'm only playing in the instrument now, but I feel already I have a friend for life.

A favorite

This is by far my favorite recorder. The olive wood is lightweight and provides a rich sound. The Mollenhauer 5223 is a real joy to play. If you are looking for a recorder that is unique, but not overpowering, this is the one for you.
