Standard Series serves as the perfect introduction to Altus’s art and technology in decades of flute making. By finishing up with silver plating all over, Altus offers economic choices of consistent quality sharing the same Altus ScaleTM and key design that are used on the handmade flutes.
A9
A combination of Sterling silver and Britannia silver on the headjoint, A9 features Sterling silver lip plate and riser, and adopts a higher purity silver on the headjoint: Britannia silver. This combination is one of Altus’s features giving the flute a more sophisticated sound.
The ALTUS A9 is a highly popular flute among advanced players. Due to its increased silver content, the 958 Britannia silver head-joint lends this instrument richer harmonics and, thus, expands the musician’s range of tonal expression.
It is the best beginner flute to pave the way for your musical journey.
