Before launching his own shop, Louis Lebret was during years a Louis Lot employee. His own instruments are very delicately shaped, totally in the Louis Lot spirit, and they play beautifully with this deep, rich and singing French school sound so many people are today looking for. The flute is in very good condition considering her age.
She is made with a seamed tube of silver-plated maillechort. There is some plating wear at the usual places. The flute plays with a deep and singing sound, except for the lower notes where there is some air leakage.
The headjoint alone sounds great on other flutes. Very few remain on the market today : they are so cherished by professional musicians and sought after by collectors. Be sure it will be quite impossible to find another like this one, in this condition and at this price! Item is located in France. Please feel free to ask any question.
