Just Flutes Description
Get the best possible start with the Azumi AZ1000 flute. In our opinion, this is the top beginner's flute available: it is free-blowing and has excellent tuning. Learners will find it easy to produce a good sound; and there is enough depth and flexibility to the tone that advanced players will be able get the range of sounds that is required in more demanding music.

Altus flutes are held in the very highest esteem by professional players and technicians the world over. Now the Altus sound is available at an affordable price, thanks to the Azumi flute.

Featuring an Altus Z-cut headjoint married to a silver-plated body, the Azumi flute is an outstanding package: the tone is strong with a good range of colours; tuning is excellent (because of the accurate William Bennett scale which this flute uses); and the mechanism is strong, responsive and reliable.

The Altus Z-Cut
The Z-Cut headjoint was designed by Altus founder Shuichi Tanaka. It is handcut with a wider, rectangular shape to provide quick response with a large tone, across the range of the flute.
