Who the AF670-C Alto Flute Is For
The Haynes AF670-C Amadeus Alto Flute is a curved-head alto flute built for flutists who need a reliable, tenor-voice instrument for orchestral color, flute choir parts, and solo repertoire. Its design supports the characteristic alto range—from mellow, warm low-register tones to a rich, sonorous vibrancy—while maintaining a consistent tonal color and solid scale throughout the octaves.
This model is well suited to advancing players through professionals who want an ergonomic, smooth mechanism and practical features for low-register facility, including an offset G and a low D# roller key. As an authorized Haynes dealer, we recommend the AF670-C for musicians seeking the Amadeus concept: a performance-focused alto flute anchored by a W. Haynes solid silver curved headjoint and a durable silver-plated body and mechanism.
