Over the past century the Boehm-style flute has seen relatively little change. At
Nagahara Flutes we have a staff filled with innovative minds constantly looking
for new ways to improve the performance and quality of the modern flute for the comfort
of the performer. Having worked with both Japanese and American flute makers, Kanichi
Nagahara has created an instrument which draws on the best aspects of both worlds.
By combining Japanese production ingenuity with traditional Boston craftsmanship,
Nagahara Flutes has come to be known as a one-of-a-kind company, making a one-of-a-kind
instrument rated among the top in the industry by professionals around the world.
Like our customers the world over, we realize that there is just no substitute for
a hand-made instrument, and we never tire in our quest to offer players the best
flutes made anywhere. Our professional level instruments are custom made specially
for each one of our customers.
We are committed to producing flutes that will assure the player an enjoyable and
secure performance experience, knowing that their instrument will assist as an ally
to their artistic expression, not an obstacle more to overcome.
