Description
The Emanuel Silver Flute combines traditional flute sonority with modern precision engineering. Individually handcrafted in Boston by master flutemaker Emanuel Arista, each instrument is built one at a time and customized to the musician’s unique artistic and technical needs.
Inspired by the sound of the great French flutes of the nineteenth century, the Emanuel flute is designed to produce a warm, complex tone rich in harmonics, with exceptional projection, flexibility, and a wide palette of tonal colors. Every detail — from silver-soldered tone holes and carefully fitted keywork to the headjoint taper and pad selection — contributes to the instrument’s distinctive character.
At the same time, Emanuel flutes are built to the highest technical standards of modern flute making. Precision-fitted mechanisms, compact ergonomic keywork, optimized cup openings, and exceptionally tight tolerances provide remarkable comfort, reliability, and responsiveness.
Each flute is available in a wide range of custom configurations, including Traditional and Emanuel Modern headjoint models, Cooper or Bennett scales, open-hole or plateau keys, inline or offset G, C or B footjoint, and numerous additional professional options.
The result is an instrument that honors the finest traditions of flute making while meeting the demands of today’s most discerning performers.
