The Rottenburgh range is without doubt the world's most successful recorder series and remains one of The Early Music Shop's top sellers.

This Rottenburgh recorder is an unwaveringly reliable instrument with a carrying tone, whether played in small or large ensembles. It also lends itself perfectly for solo pieces, e.g. for sonatas with basso continuo. The Rottenburgh is the ideal all rounder: reliable, balanced and with a full, expressive tone.

The Rottenburgh is the instrument of choice for recorder players wishing to play music at an advanced level. This immensely popular range of recorders was originally designed by Friederich von Huene after models by Belgian maker Jean-Hyacinth-Joseph Rottenburgh (1672-1756). Versatile, reliable and used by all levels of players, Rottenburgh owners enjoy instruments made to consistently high standards.

This best-selling Moeck 4306 Rottenburgh alto is made from East African olivewood - this is a dense, attractively marked wood with a marbled appearance. (Specific density approx. 0.89) The recorder produces a full, rich tone capable of beautiful, expressive performance in both ensemble and solo settings.

This Rottenburgh recorder comes with a hard case, cleaning rod and cloth, cork grease, fingering chart and maintenance instructions.

It is also supplied with a free Moeck Z0002 maintenance set (recorder oil, oil brush, anti-condensant, paintbrush, maintenance manual) worth £21.50.

    Early days yet, still playing in but the reduced weight, compared to my old alto is worth the upgrade alone. Looks lovely, feels lovely! Well done EMS!

    Mellow tone

    I am still playing this in but it is playing well across the range. A lovely mellow tone is developing. I am delighted with this instrument.

    Wonderful purchase!

    Great advice given and time freely given. Lovely instrument to use, very light to hold and once played in glorious pure sound. Absolutely delighted and seriously contemplating the descant of the same.

    Moeck Rottenburgh Alto Recorder

    This recorder has a beautiful resonance and depth to the lower notes, as well as being exceptionally light and with a lovely wood grain. So far into the playing-in process, it has remained clear and I'm looking forward to many years of use. I have confidence that The Early Music Shop will fix any problems, and they were very helpful in letting me try out a variety of recorders and listening to my requirements.
