Benefits

ALTUS headjoint with Z-Cut

The handcrafted ALTUS headpiece for the Z-Series models is characterized by the rather angular shape of the mouth hole, the Z-Cut. The wide blowing edge allows a very fast response and full sound. The sound character of this series is supported by the use of 925 sterling silver.

Sterling silver headjoint with ALTUS silver

The lip-plate and riser are made of exclusive ALTUS silver with a 94.6% silver content and, in combination with the Sterling silver headjoint with Z-cut, offer an extremely powerful sound with fascinating tone colours for sophisticated sound production.

Sterling silver (925) headjoint

The sterling silver headjoint with 92.5% silver content gives the instruments the typical bright silver sound, which is standard in the advanced range to produce a sophisticated sound.

Body made of nickel silver, silver-plated

The material is characterized by high strength and corrosion resistance and allows a quick response.

Inline

The inline design means that the G and A flaps are positioned in line with the rest of the flaps. This construction method is particularly in demand in the French flute tradition.

Open hole keys

Open hole keys are a modern development and enable technical refinements that are not possible with closed hole keys. For example, there are special alternative grips, especially for modern playing techniques. The open hole keys can be closed at any time with silicone plugs included in the accessories.

C-foot joint

The C-foot is the traditional design of the flute, as it was standard for many decades, as well as in literature. The response is a little lighter and the timbre a little lighter.

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.
