For over 30 years, Altus has hand-crafted flutes that embody the ideals of vintage inspiration and modern technology. Created by Master Flute Maker Shuichi Tanaka, each Altus flute reflects his passion to combine the finest playing flutes with the finest materials and artistry. The meticulous design of the Altus flute and its acclaimed Altus/Bennet scales offers excellent intonation, carefully tuned harmonics and balanced registers. The masterfully hand-sculpted headjoints and precision tubings produce the remarkable sound of the Altus flute.
Altus TS
The Altus TS flute is made entirely out of Sterling silver (925). A silver coating is then added on top of the body and the mechanism. The TS flutes have drawn tone holes and French pointed arms.
The German wind instrument magazine SONIC about the ALTUS TS:
The ALTUS TS is a perfectly handcrafted solid silver flute. Talking about intonation it is one of the best instruments you can get on the market. The flute comes with a head-joint which makes it easy to produce a stable and shining tone.
