Product Details

George Ormiston Alto flute

> African blackwood

> silver keys and ferrules fully hallmarked

> two bodies (corps de rechanges) in Bb and A

> excellent condition

> one owner from new

> serviced ready for sale

This unusual flute was made for the present owner in November 2006. He has hardly used it. The keys have no wear and there are no cracks in the wood. Pads are intact and well seated. We have serviced the flute ready for sale.

The flute comes with two corps de rechange, the first unkeyed in Bb, the other with the usual left hand keys in A. The flute plays with a wonderfully warm glowing lyrical sound.

George Ormiston has made very few of these over the years; if you could persuade him to accept a commission now the cost would be £5475. The flute comes in its original hard case.
