Lightweight copper body
The "Voce" lip plate and riser are both made from .958 silver, and ensure a free-blowing response with excellent tonal range. This is then accentuated by the lightweight copper body, which offers less resistance than a traditional silver flute. While copper has low resonance, the sound it produces offers plenty of depth and does not sacrifice on sound.
Responsive and resonant
A heavy-weighted engraved crown offers greater air resistance which centres the airflow accurately, ensuring a richer sound. The split E mechanism and offset G ensure a faster, ergonomic playing experience. French-style pointed key arms help develop faster fingering techniques and provide perfect intonation, while the open holes give you more control. The silver construction offers a greater depth of sound alongside better response and more power - everything you need to enhance your sound!
Designed to last
Trevor James flutes are built to stand the test of time. The sturdy construction offered by the French-style pointed key arms results in a tighter mechanism. The arms extend to the centre of the keys, which leads to less wear and leaks - this, combined with the high-quality Italian pads, means that your flute will sound better for longer. The silver plating on the key mechanism produces a beautiful yet durable finish that will keep your flute looking better for longer.
Controlled quality
Dedication to quality ensures that every instrument from Trevor James is finished to a high standard. The embouchure hole is over-cut and under-cut by hand to provide optimal performance with this flute, preventing any rough edges or irregular shapes that can come from machine cutting. Each flute is then setup in the UK by one of Trevor James' technical experts. This attention to detail means that you can be confident that your new instrument will play to its full potential.
