"Het belangrijkste kenmerk van AZUMI fluiten is de mogelijkheid voor de speler om zijn technische vaardigheden te tonen dankzij de uitstekende mechaniek van het instrument en om zich vrij te uiten in muziek dankzij de prachtige klank van de fluit, die niet alleen de nuances van articulatie onthult, maar ook de gevoelens van de uitvoerder in muziek onthult door de verscheidenheid aan kleuren van de klank van de fluit."
