G.A. ROTTENBURGH





This flute is based on the original instrument of Godfroid Adrien ROTTENBURGH (1703-1768) belonging to B. Kuijken. It is in four parts, made of boxwood, with seven extra middle joints, and dated around 1745/1750.
This is the most copied flute today, due not only to the excellent reputation that has made its owner but also because of its own special qualities (B. Kuijken describes his instrument as elegant, flexible and colourful).
It is these qualities that I look to recreate in my copies, playing easely in tune.
I offer copies of this flute, in stained boxwood or grenadilla, with imitation ivory rings, silver key, pitch a=415 hz.
I can provide extra middle joints for a=410 and/or 420 Hz (with a threaded cork-setting mechanism and a tuning slide on the foot joint).
I also offer :
- a complete instrument with a pitch a=440 Hz based on that of 415 Hz, made of boxwood or grenadilla,
- an instrument with a carefully selected price with a pitch a=415 or 440 Hz, made of rosewood from Madagascar, without rings and with a brass key on the foot joint.
This instrument is not a study model, it has all the qualities of the other flutes, it is only simple in its external appearance so that I can offer it at a cheaper price.
Repertoire : with its flexibility, this flute can be used for a wide repertoire, which is why I recommend it as a first instrument for beginners. B. Kuijken compares the colourfulness of his original flute with a beautiful mezzo-soprano voice, notably appreciated in the music of Rameau.
G.A. Rottenburgh (1703-1768) : from a family of woodwin makers and/or musicians at the court of Brussels, Godfroid Adrien succeeded his father Jean Hyacinthe in 1756, having started working with him in1744. B. Kuijken describes Godfroid’s flutes as being more elegant, more flexible with perhaps a little less strength but more grace than those made by his father.
