Flute Review Haynes Amadeus Model 680 Step Up Flute - FCNY Sponsored

Hi, I'm Dr. Angela McBrearty of DoctorFlute.com, and today I’m partnering with the Flute Center of New York to review this beautiful Amadeus by William S. Haynes Model 680 step-up flute.

Listen for the tone and response time as I tongue & slur, do some low register tonguing, try to get an edgier sound, and discuss the resistance in the 3rd octave. I will also discuss the cut of the lip plate on this Q-Series headjoint, and review the mechanism, how it feels in my fingers.

Amadeus by Haynes Model 680 - Haynes classic sterling silver hand-cut headjoint, silver-plated body and mechanism, drawn tone holes, French (open hole) model, pointed style key arms, offset G, split-E mechanism, C# trill key, and B footjoint.
