Our reproduction is based on early 19th century (c. 1810-1815) by D’Almaine Co., London, representing a very late stage in the development of the one keyed flute in the English tradition.

With enlarged tone holes and a larger embouchure hole, it reflects the transitional stage between the late Baroque flute and the fully developed Classical keyed flute, considered a late version of the Baroque flute.

Tuned at A=430 Hz, this late transitional one-keyed flute is well suited to late 18th- and early 19th-century repertoire, where Baroque expressivity meets emerging Classical clarity and the transition from the galant style to early Classical expression.

• Pitch: A=430 and (or) A=440
• Crafted from Boxwood.
• Wood ends are protected by imitation Ivory rings.
• The key is casted from brass and features steel springs with leather pad.
• Comes with care instructions, and a guide with a fingering chart.
• Additionally, accessories such as a plush-lined protective case, cleaning cloth, and extra key pads are provided.
