Each Azumi flute comes with a hard case, soft carry cover, cleaning rod, inside cleaning cloth and outside cleaning cloth.
Designed by Altus founder and flutemaker Shuichi Tanaka, Azumi flutes are a perfect fit for the serious student and aspiring flutist.
The Z-Cut Head joint
The most distinctive feature of all Azumi flutes is the Altus Z-cut professional head joint which responds quickly and easily and produces a full and rich tone in all three registers. The significance of the head joint inspired the founder of AZUMI flutes - Shuichi Tanaka to produce a handmade head joint combined with a flute body that is affordable, yet of a high production quality.
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.
Altus-Bennett Scale
Based on the work and recommendations of British flutist William Bennett, the Altus-Bennett scale offers excellent intonation, carefully tuned harmonics, and balanced registers
