Description

Windward Flute #761 

  • Keyless D Flute
  • Mopane Wood with Sterling silver rings
  • Single billet
  • 2 Corks
  • Includes soft case

Corks: The cork "face" is a "reflector plate" for the sound, and ours are made with either a metal face on the cork, or a flute-wood face. Our tester explores both options during the testing/voicing session, and we determine if the sound is best with wood or metal, if the tone quality is spoiled or enhanced by changing the cork from a wood-faced to a metal-faced cork, we choose the best cork for the job. Some flutes sound best with the metal and are not fully in character with a wood stopper. Others become harsh and less musical with metal. 

A very few of our flutes are "two corkers", displaying two very distinctive personalities, one with the metal-faced stopper, which may add volume to the sound of a particular flute, and another with the wood faced stopper, which is usually preferred. In the case of a "two cork flute" both personalities are interesting and add to the breadth of the flute's tone palette. Those "chosen few" two-cork flutes, deserve both corks and are sold with both corks. It is not just a question of more and less volume, but one of tone colour as well. If a flute becomes brash and loses its range or quality of sound when tested with the metal-faced cork, it is not worth the cost of adding the second cork, unless the player opts to explore for himself. 

Please note that because of their delicate nature, these beautiful Windward Flutes are not available for normal in-home trials. All Windward Flutes must be purchased and paid for in full before we will ship, but we will allow a return period of 7 days. The flute must be properly cared for, per the instructions, during the return window, and we will not accept returns if there is visible damage to the flute, including cracks, caused by neglect or lack of care.
