 These flutes showcase the tradition and beauty for which the flute makers of Japan are recognized and celebrated. Named for the mountainous region of Azumino, Japan, the birthplace of Altus handmade flutes, Azumi relies on the premium performance and playability of the unique Altus “Z” embouchure cut on a Britannia Silver headjoint combined with a precisely crafted body and mechanism.
The perfect balance of durable design and affordability, Azumi offers the advancing flutist a superior instrument at a realistic price. Both models feature professional “Z” cut Britannia Silver headjoint and B footjoint with Gizmo key, Bennett Scale for truer intonation, and wide-rib construction with sturdy key mechanisms for greater durability.

There is another side to our business that most flutists do not realize exists. I started the company in 1991, building on years of experience in instrument repair. From that time I have not only been repairing, I have also been providing tools and supplies to technicians and manufacturers. Today, my company designs and builds specialty tools and parts for instrument makers worldwide. This keeps us at the forefront of current instrument technology, and allows us a unique perspective from which to understand the instruments
