Baroque Flute 2-key JJ Quantz Transverse 

Experience the elegance of the Baroque era with this handcrafted transverse flute of the original Johann Joachim Quantz (1697-1773) transverse Baroque flute housed in the 'DCM Collection' of Library of Congress, Washington D.C. USA.

This 18th-century transverse flute, crafted from African Grenadilla black wood, holds significant historical importance in flute making. Renowned for its distinctive sound and characteristics, Grenadilla wood has been a preferred material for centuries, demanding greater care and maintenance to preserve its quality and longevity compared to Indian Cocobolo wood flutes.

This model features 2 keys: an Eb key and a standard D# key. It includes two middle joints—one for A=415Hz and the other for A=440Hz, which can easily play A=430Hz by pulling out the tuning head slide. It has an oval embouchure hole, imitation Ivory protection rings, and tuned in the key of 'D'. 

The package includes a wooden case, a cleaning cloth, replacement pads for the keys, and a fingering chart.
