Azumi

collapse expand iconDescription

Designed by Altus founder and flutemaker Shuichi Tanaka, Azumi flutes are a perfect fit for the serious student and aspiring flutist. The most distinct feature of all Azumi flutes is the Altus Z-cut professional headjoint, which responds quickly and easily, and produces a full and rich tone in all three registers. All Azumi flutes feature pointed key arms for an elegant and refined look, improved key strength, and even pad wear. The Altus/Bennett scale makes these flutes effortless to play in tune. The Azumi Pro line flutes are perfect for the student who has distinguished themself as a committed musician. This is a step-up instrument, just shy of professional in terms of features, but well shy in terms of price. The Azumi AZ3SRB is the pinnacle of the Azumi Pro line.

The Azumi AZ3SRB features a sterling silver Z-cut headjoint, a sterling silver body, B footjoint, open holes and inline G. Comes with case and cleaning products.

    While I am still trying to get the right embouchure and technique. This seems to be an excellent flute. Arrived with the flute box inside of a cardboard box inside of another cardboard box. Beautiful to look at and sounds great. My only complaint is with the footjoint. It's fit was so tight that once I got it together I didn't think I could get it apart. And I have a good grip and pretty good strength. Tried the smallest amount of cork grease and even a little Vaseline. Even though this is really not recommended. Did not help at all. Cleaned it thoroughly with alcohol and clean rags. After reading about this problem it turns out that either graphite or wax is the recommended solution. Made it much easier and little by little it is getting better. Although it is still very snug I can now get it off and on without to much trouble. Overall I like it very much.
