Benefits

ALTUS headjoint with S-Cut

Britannia silver (958) headjoint

Thanks to the high silver content, the Britannia silver headjoint with 95.8% has a slightly denser sound characteristic and enables a wide range of tonal facets for advanced players.

Body made of Britannia silver (958), silver-plated

Britannia silver has a proportion of 95.8% silver and due to the higher density it allows a pronounced tonal carrying capacity that goes in the direction of gold flutes.

E-mechanism

The E mechanics allow for better stability of the tone E3, while also improving the intonation and response for the tone.

Offset G

The design with advanced G key has an ergonomic position of the flaps for the ring finger of the left hand.

Closed holes keys

Closed keys were used as standard in traditional flute construction and generally facilitate the clean and reliable closing of the keys. Also, maintenance and upholstery is a little easier.

Case, bag and cleaning rod

The scope of delivery of each AZUMI flute includes an elegant, high-quality velvet-lined wooden case, a matching lined case pocket as well as a wiper rod and cleaning cloth.

C-foot joint
