I have been creating flutes since 1990 and continually strive to craft the best instruments possible. For the past several years I have focused on designing a flute that would have the clearest tone quality, be very responsive and minimize air turbulence.
In the process of making flutes for the past 18 years I have found that the real challenge is to understand the minute details of what makes a great sounding instrument. Only then can the process be repeated precisely to create a quality flute.
This Signature Series is the result of much testing and experimenting with
the subtleties of creating the flute voice.
These flutes take very little breath to play and the fingering response is quick and positive, allowing one to focus on creating sweet notes that resonate with clarity and sustain the emotion intended to communicate.
I am limiting the designs on these flutes to one hundred of each key "A", "G", "F#" and "High D" and "High E". The bore and interior chamber are polished and moisture-proofed. We apply multiple coats of tung oil and hand buff them to a satin luster. These steps not only create a beautiful instrument, but also enhance the resonance and sound quality of the flute.
The designs are inspired by the many magical phenomena in Nature as well as the inspiration of individual recording artists that have worked with High Spirits to create personal designs for their Signature flutes.
I hope you will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed creating them.
