Fipple - the unmistakable beginner instrument from Mollenhauer!
Available in four imaginative colors. Behind each model hides a fun character head. The charming soprano recorder with a colored plastic head in Seeblau and a wooden body made of European maple.
Introducing: Degedus, or simply Dege
The child-friendly and high-quality material combination is the proven recipe for a great start in music. Robust, reliable, and melodious, it offers a good response across the entire range with a curved windway and balanced tuning. The elegant contour of the mouthpiece and the graceful design of the instrument immediately establish a connection to baroque models.
The wooden body with a hand-finished, oiled surface ensures a pleasant feel and beautiful tone. The plastic head simplifies hygienic care by rinsing it with lukewarm water and drying it outside the case.
Baroque Fingering with Double Holes
The standard among the most widespread beginner instruments: baroque fingering with double holes for the notes c/c# and d/d#. Double holes drilled side by side make it easier to play the corresponding semitones accurately, which come into play later in the learning process.

Motivating Learning
Each Fipple model is linked to a character figure that children can identify with. The seeblau Degedus is a movement talent – a creative flute sprinter who loves to play fast melodies with a playful spirit.
The colorful world of Fipples sparks imagination and encourages the willingness to learn. In addition to the instrument, motivating educational materials are offered:
- The adventurous Fipple Story for reading aloud or self-reading
- The fun Fipple Song – small musical exercises for a playful start
- The Fipple Game – a DIY craft for exciting playtime fun
"Every Beginning Is Easy"
This especially applies when you have Michael Schwager’s recorder method book at hand. All notes featured in this book are explained with clear illustrations. Fun exercises and simple explanations of notes, measures, and rhythm guarantee quick learning success with lots of fun.
Additionally, helpful tutorial videos are available for download. Here, Michael explains all exercises and songs in detail, sympathetically, and in an easy-to-understand way.
Music Stand
This music stand features a tripod design for optimal stability. Of course, the legs are equipped with solid, non-slip rubber caps. The music rest can be tilted and fixed with a screw. Thanks to the approx. 4 cm deep music rest, this stand is also perfect for thick music books.
Perfect Care for Your Valuable Instrument
With the Classic Cantabile wool swab, you clean your soprano recorder thoroughly and gently. For lasting enjoyment of your valuable instrument.
The Best Care for Your Instrument
It isolates the condensate from the tuning slides, preventing corrosion and sticking of the inner slides. It is a relatively "stiff" grease with exactly the right consistency for optimal slide movement. Often used for lubricating slides whose precision is not optimal.
