It has a rich, full sound, very responsive articulation and plays effortlessly between registers. I have used it for both solo and chamber repertoire as well as for orchestra playing. I am parting with it because I am no longer playing professionally, and it's too wonderful of an instrument to let it sit unused.

This is made from .946 solid silver: Altus Flutes’ unique alloy inspired by the old French flutes like Louis Lot. The tone holes are soldered. It works well with any flute, but would work particularly well with a seamed tube flute such as Altus AL 1807 (or their newest version ALII), and the 1607 model. Or an older French flute like Louis Lot/Lebret/Bonneville. Great for anyone wanting a boost to their current set up or if you prefer to have something lighter than B foot. Flutes with C foot are generally a bit more responsive and easier to play in the extreme registers. This foot joint definitely does that. Selling as I no longer need it and would prefer it to be played. In great condition. Slightly tarnished keywork, which can be cleaned up by a technician. Can be tried in the UK (Sussex/London). Can be shipped anywhere (buyer pays all shipping costs including any import fees).Sat, 15 Aug 2026 18:58:59 +0100https://www.musicalchairs.info/sales/21022https://www.musicalchairs.info/sales/21022Silver plated flute and solid silver head joint (MZ 10 head joint) Drawn tone holes Partial brogger system Off set G Split E C foot Serviced recently and plays really well.
