For your consideration is a stunning Original Brogger Flute with Soldered Tone Holes. This flute is everything you would expect from a handmade Brannen Cooper professional flute and much more. This exceptional flute was purchased new from Brannen Brothers Flutemakers, Inc. in December of 2015 making it slightly over one year old. It has been lovingly and professionally taken care of and is in like new condition both aesthetically and mechanically. The flute body is solid silver with a sterling silver Brogger Mekanik pinless mechanism, French style open hole, with silver pointed key arms. It is .016 wall thickness and is A442 with soldered tone holes. The flute comes with a B foot with gizmo key, and "B" engraving. The flute has a split E mechanism for a more solid high E than flutes without this feature. The pads are professional Straubinger pads with very little wear. The Pitch is A442. The headjoint is beautiful J. Rainer Lafin 15/85 headjoint with a 14K rose gold riser and alder wings. The tubing of the entire headjoint is 15% Gold and 85% Silver. The wings make for easier and clean clear articulation, the purpose being to channel any "stray" air to the embouchure. The added gold in the 15/85 tubing and the solid gold riser and wings create a warm round sound such as gold would normally produce, however the addition of the silver body and silver in the 15/85 composite retain the clarity and brilliance/shimmer of the sound of an all silver flute, yet with a warm core. The flute sounds as beautiful as it looks. It projects well, and is at home in all musical settings and with all styles of music. It makes a wonderful flute for solo or ensembles of all sizes. The articulation on this flute is in a word - amazing. This flute articulates very effortlessly and cleanly. Staccatos are very clean, light, and crystal clear. Accents and sfz and ppp to ffff...are effective, clean and easy to produce. It is truly delightful to play!This flute has superb intonation and is in tune and plays with homogeneity from the low B to the highest D with very little adjustment. The flute will come in its’ original black leather, black velvet lined case along with a highly protective black nylon padded Altieri case cover with exterior storage pocket. The case cover came with the flute but was never used and is brand new. If you would like more specific detailed information about the Brannen Brothers Brogger Handmade Flute along with the Lafin winged headjoint, and current pricing, please visit the Brannen Brothers Flutemakers, Inc. website.
