Key features:
– Britannia silver headjoint: The tonal character of this series is supported by the use of 958 Britannia silver for the headjoint.
– S-cut headjoint: Renowned for producing the trademark Altus sound, this headjoint provides vibrant warmth with excellent projection. Its pure tonal center offers the artist great flexibility within an infinite color palette.
– Altus scale: Based on the work and recommendations of renowned British flutist William Bennett, the Altus Scale offers excellent intonation, carefully tuned harmonics, and balanced registers.
– Pointed key arms: Usually reserved for professional models, all Azumi Flutes feature pointed key arms for an elegant and refined look, improved key strength, and even pad wear. The pointed arms connect the key hinge tube to the key cup at the back and across the top of the key, ending in a point in the center of the cup.
– Open holes: An open hole flute has holes at the center of the A, G, F, E, and D keys. Open holes are the standard among intermediate flutes and are the preference of the majority of flutists.
– Split E mechanism: The Split E mechanism is designed to make the high E more responsive.
