Our reproduction is based on an original flute by Godfridus Adrianus Rottenburgh of Brussels, dating from around 1745 and owned by Belgian flutist Barthold Kuijken.
With its most important A=415 hz joint, Kuijken performed late Baroque, Rococo, and early Classical repertoire, with a particular focus on mid-18th-century music by Bach, Telemann, Quantz, and C. P. E. Bach.
You have the option of Cocobolo, Grenadilla or Boxwood. Carefully selected materials are used throughout, with the rings individually hand-crafted from imitation ivory. The rings add an elegant appearance while reflecting the attention to craftsmanship and adding value to the instrument.
A=415 Hz - The flute is tuned to Baroque pitch.
The D foot joint has a register and a brass Eb key mounted on a hand-carved key block made directly from the wood body.
The key is cast in brass and left in its original finish, fitted with a brass pin, steel spring, and leather pad.
The traverso comes complete with a case.
