Azumi
Azumi flutes are a combination of handmade headjoints, produced by the world renowned Altus, with a high quality flute body and mechanism (produced by Azumi). The headjoint design is one of the most important elements in influencing the characteristic of any flute´s tone. The significance of the headjoint inspired the founder of Azumi flutes – Shuichi Tanaka to produce a handmade headjoint combined with a flute body that is affordable, yet of a high production quality which led to combining the Azumi flute body with a handmade Altus headjoint. With this vision the Azumi flute series was born – to satisfy the different demands of the intermediate and the more advanced musician. The ethos behind Azumi flutes is to offer players a flute with which they can develop their playing to advanced levels at an affordable price.
AZUMI flutes are available in two different series. The Z series for easy articulation, powerful and precise focus of tone; and the S series for beautiful open tone with increased positive resistance
