About This Flute:
Sankyo flutes are well-known for excellent workmanship, beautiful tone and smooth mechanism. This particular flute plays with a rich tone and evenness of sound over the whole range.  The playability seems ahead of its time when compared with other flutes made during the same period. It has just had a complete overhaul by my trusted tech. and plays beautifully, with a light touch from high to low.
