Fipple - the unmistakable beginner instrument from Mollenhauer!
Available in four inspiring colors. Each model hides a fun character head. The friendly soprano recorder with a colored plastic head in Seeblau and a body made of European maple wood.
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 recorder’s beak and the graceful design of the instrument immediately connect to baroque models.
The wooden body with a hand-finished, oiled surface provides a pleasant feel and beautiful tone. The plastic head simplifies hygienic care by simply rinsing with lukewarm water and drying outside the case.
German Fingering with Single Hole
Entry-level instrument with German fingering and single holes designed for the simplest special learning concepts: the basic scale reduces the number of fork fingerings and avoids playing the lowest semitones for beginners.

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 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 playful entry
- The Fipple Game – a DIY craft for exciting play fun
"Every Beginning Is Easy"
This especially applies when you have Michael Schwager’s recorder method 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 plenty of fun.
Additionally, helpful tutorial videos are available for download. Michael explains all exercises and songs thoroughly, sympathetically, and clearly.
Music Stand
This music stand features a tripod design for optimal stability. Of course, the legs have solid, non-slip rubber feet. 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
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 also for lubricating slides whose precision is not optimal.
