Mollenhauer Canta Bent Tenor 2446K - Pearwood (Baroque fingering)

Mollenhauer Canta: a modern tenor in a recognized tradition

With the Canta series, Mollenhauer offers a recorder designed to be robust, practical, and musically reliable. Its positioning emphasizes versatility and playing consistency, while respecting current standards for the tenor recorder: baroque fingering, careful tuning, and design intended for regular use in lessons, rehearsals, or on stage.

For which musicians and styles

The Mollenhauer Canta tenor recorder is aimed at beginner to intermediate level musicians seeking a comfortable and stable instrument, as well as more advanced players looking for a reliable tenor for daily practice. It fits well in recorder ensembles, early music (baroque repertoire), as well as in pedagogy or more contemporary projects thanks to its clear and balanced character.

Sound and design

Pearwood provides a naturally warm timbre while maintaining good clarity of articulation. The Canta stands out with a homogeneous sound spectrum : registers flow smoothly, aiding musicality and intonation. The curved headjoint improves ergonomics by bringing the instrument closer to the body, reducing finger stretch for low notes. The double hole enhances half-tone precision, and the double key facilitates certain fingerings, while contributing to a more relaxed hold thanks to a better-balanced grip.

Recommended compatible accessories

The instrument comes with a case and essential maintenance items. To complete your routine safely, you can add an extra swab (tenor size) and a dedicated microfiber cloth, useful for keeping the bore and body clean after each session.
