The original owner of this truly wonderful instrument was a finisher at Powell, where great painstaking care was given by all who had a part in making this flute. The result is a dazzling array of color in the sound that has the qualities of gold and silver simultaneously in every register and in all dynamics. The nature of the tone here is in the French school way of playing with a focused, clear, and one of a kind sonorous voice. It's all there, beautiful articulation, effortless legato, smooth tapers, ringing overtones, a real joy to play!

The off-set G and D# roller give the player maximum comfort and the mechanism feels fluid and even. In short, the design and effort in making this flute was with the intention of creating a rich gold sound with the utmost comfort possible.
