The flutes from this series share a large part of their technique that of the professional flutes of Yamaha, but have been specifically designed with the needs of the less experienced player in mind. Through the use of nickel-silver, the flute can be offered for a much lower price than the sterling silver models, with only minimal concessions in sound.

The lip plate has a relatively big influence on the sound of a flute and because sterling silver has a greater density than nickel-silver, it gives the flute a more expressive sound.

Covered Keys

Especially for beginners, this is important, because this allows them to focus on the basic techniques first. Advanced players sometines prefer to open keys, as these offer more subtle control and flexibility of tone.
