Modern Alto Recorder with E foot by Mollenhauer

  • Model: Modern Alto with E foot
  • Pitch: A = 442 Hz
  • Wood: Grenadilla
  • Built in: 2023
  • Ships from: United Kingdom
  • Price: £1,300 or €1495
  • Current state: This is the alto with E foot. The instrument is in excellent condition and has been well cared for. It is effectively as new with original case and documents. I bought it for a particular project but have little use for it now. Mollenhauer confirmed it features the modern voicing (not Baroque). The intonation is fantastic with very even sound over low E to high C. The third octave notes speak very easily with a pure sound. Happy to provide sound samples.
