Mollenhauer's Modern recorders, developed with Nikolaj Tarasov and Joachim Paetzold, are intended to address the demands of contemporary recorder literature. Its extended bore produces a complex, powerful tone, strong and full in the bottom register, and clear and responsive in the extreme upper range. Its wide bore design gives it a range of over 2 1/2 octaves, without stopping the bell with the knee. The Modern Soprano is made with a b-foot (b',c'',c#'' keys).
