Pearl Flutes - Maesta MD970RHF

Some flutes accompany a musician’s early learning; others become true partners in expression as the musician seeks to refine every nuance of their playing. The Pearl Flute Maesta MD970RH-F C-flute belongs to this world of handcrafted instruments designed for flutists who place great importance on the materials, the precision of craftsmanship and the freedom of interpretation.

Handcrafted in Japan, this Maesta stands out for its use of 970‰ solid silver for the body, head and mouthplate. This design, combined with a Forte mouthpiece, is part of the quest for a powerful sound projection, suited to musicians who wish to bring their performances to life in a variety of musical contexts. The reinforced ‘Heavy Walls’ construction, with a stated wall thickness of 0.45 mm, contributes to the unique design of this instrument.

Pearl also pays meticulous attention to the mechanics. The One-Piece Core-Bar technology is based on a central bar designed to improve the cohesion of the key mechanism, whilst the Pinless construction, which does not feature traditional visible pins, aims to minimise certain issues related to wear and corrosion. These technical choices serve a specific purpose: to ensure consistent performance and playing comfort for the flautist throughout hours of practice.

The in-line key action and hollow key plates complete this configuration, with mechanisms crafted from 925‰ sterling silver. The C-key retains a traditional configuration favoured in many repertoires. The set comes with a case, a cover and a cleaning swab to protect the instrument and facilitate its regular maintenance.

The Maesta MD970RH-F is therefore aimed at musicians who wish to invest in a meticulously crafted Japanese-made flute, designed to support in-depth musical practice and demanding work on nuances, phrasing and the quality of performance.
