The Yamaha YFL-587H professional concert flute is a stunning showcase of peerless craftsmanship and design. This luxurious flute derives a pure, colorful tone from its sterling silver headjoint, hand-assembled keys and traditional pads. Boasting an inline key system with French-style ring keys, the YFL-587H has a delightful feel that responds to every nuance. The C# trill key adds even more control and expression. Whether performing on stage or recording in the studio, the YFL-587H helps flutists find their voice.

Sterling Silver Headjoint Provides a Rich Tone

The sterling silver headjoint is the heart of the YFL-587H's robust yet agile voice. Sterling silver is prized for producing a tone that is simultaneously bright, rich and resonant. The headjoint's precise cut and contour help flutists achieve a three-dimensional sense of depth and warmth in addition to pinpoint control over pitch. The headjoint alone makes this a flute worthy of the most discerning professional flutists.

Hand-Assembled Keys are Responsive and Reliable

Yamaha's expert technicians hand assemble each key mechanism to ensure the most responsive, reliable and ergonomic feel under the fingers. The sturdy yet lightweight keys enable flutists to play with confidence, speed and nuance. The French-style ring keys in particular provide a comfortable perch for the pinky fingers, enabling extended techniques. Overall, the hand-assembled keys make this flute a delight to play.

Traditional Pads for an Authentic Flute Tone

The YFL-587H features high-quality leather pads for an authentic flute tone and response. Leather pads are prized for providing an airtight seal without dampening the instrument's natural resonance. They enable flutists to achieve a broad range of dynamics and articulations. The pads on this flute are cut and installed with precision to ensure the most uniform, consistent tone and response across all registers.

Additional Features for Expressive Playing

A C# trill key provides more fluid transitions between notes and opens up new possibilities for expressive techniques. An offset G key orientation offers comfortable hand position and access. With a sterling silver crown, lip plate and riser, this flute provides an acoustic experience that inspires artistry. A redesigned case provides durable yet lightweight protection.
