Founded in 2006, Di Zhao Flutes' guiding philosophy is to provide superior instruments for serious young musicians in order to secure the future of music. Combining the craftsmanship and tradition of Boston’s finest flute makers with modern day production techniques of the world’s leading instrument factories, Di Zhao flutes are made with careful attention to precision in Tianjin, China where all workers are trained by Mr. Zhao. All Di Zhao flutes are tuned to A=442 and include handcut headjoints with undercuts and overcuts to make the sound quality full and easy to play. These high-quality instruments are able to achieve smooth key action, fast response and excellent resonance. Each flute is tested and adjusted with care by Di Zhao himself. Branching out into all aspects of flute production, Di Zhao manufactures top quality student flutes, alto flutes, bass flutes and piccolos.
