Conrad Mollenhauer GmbH (commonly called simply Mollenhauer) is a leading German manufacturer of recorders.

The company was founded in 1822 by Johann Andreas Mollenhauer (1798–1871) in Fulda. In 1961, Bernhard Mollenhauer took over the business. [1]

The company produces recorders for beginners and handmade instruments for soloists. In an effort to develop a renaissance-style recorder for use by beginners, Adriana Breukink developed the Adri's Dream recorder [2] in collaboration with Mollenhauer in 1999. [3] This line was later expanded to include Dream Edition recorders for more advanced players.

The recorder is a family of woodwind musical instruments in the group known as internal duct flutes: flutes with a whistle mouthpiece, also known as fipple flutes. A recorder can be distinguished from other duct flutes by the presence of a thumb-hole for the upper hand and seven finger-holes: three for the upper hand and four for the lower. It is the most prominent duct flute in the western classical tradition.

The garklein recorder in C, also known as the sopranissimo recorder or piccolo recorder, is the smallest size of the recorder family. Its range is C6–A7 (C8). The name garklein is German for "quite small", and is also sometimes used to describe the sopranino in G. Although some modern German makers use the single-word form Garkleinflötlein, this is without historical precedent. Double holes for the two lowest notes (used on the larger recorders to achieve a fully chromatic scale) are uncommon. The instrument is usually notated in the treble clef two octaves lower than its actual sound. The garklein recorder is only about 16 to 18 cm long and is different from larger recorders in that it is usually made in one piece due to its size.
