Flute Maker – Michael Allen
Mike trained as a silver/gold smith and jeweller. A keen amateur flute player, he had a passion for custom-made instruments which led him to begin working on instruments in the all flutes plus workshop for Trevor James. He later established his own business crafting flutes and head joints and is a highly regarded British flute maker.
Headjoint Advice
Headjoints can radically enhance the sound of most flutes. With a vast array of headpieces made by several respected flute makers worldwide, each one differs by its embouchure cut, lip plate and material. Each headjoint offers different qualities including wide-ranging tonal colours, projection, more/less resistance and ease of articulation. Headjoint choices are entirely subjective!
Please note that whilst these head joints are for sale, we advise you to try them before you buy! Head joints come in lots of shapes and sizes. It is therefore recommended that you try the headjoint either in our testing room at All Flutes Plus or by pre-arranged trial within the comfort of your own home.
