Prelude by Selmer 111 Student Flute - Silver-plated Keys with Split-E Mechanism

Student Concert Flute with Silver-plated Body, Footjoint, Headjoint, and Lip Plate, Silver-plated Keys, Offset G Key System, Case, and Carrying Bag

Designed to Foster a Love for Music Performance

From Selmer, a world leader in band and orchestra instruments, the Prelude 111 student flute is a thoughtfully constructed instrument that perfectly balances affordability and performance. The 111 is designed to foster a love for music in young players, with its rich, centered tone and easy playability. An offset G key system increases comfort by following the natural curves of your hands, and a split E mechanism makes accessing the third-octave E easier. Closed rings provide a fantastic foundation for young players to learn fundamental fingering skills, and the beginner-friendly headjoint offers just the right amount of resistance. Plus, the 111 includes a cleaning rod, in addition to an attractive French-style case and a nylon cover for safe transport and storage.

Superb tone and easy playability

The headjoint, body, footjoint, and lip plate of the Prelude 111 student flute are all crafted from nickel silver and plated in silver. This equates to greater longevity as well as a rich, blooming tone and consistent intonation over the whole range of the instrument. Silver-plated keys are carefully assembled and ergonomically balanced with a comfortable offset G key layout for an organic, easy feel. The Prelude 111's superb tone and easy playability make it a great flute for beginners and students, according to flutists at Sweetwater.

The Selmer legacy of quality and innovation

Conservatory-trained clarinetist Henri Selmer founded Henri Selmer Paris in 1885. Fashioning reeds and mouthpieces in his small workshop, he soon took on instrument repair and modifications, which eventually led to the design and manufacture of clarinets. In 1900, Selmer opened a retail shop in New York (the beginnings of Selmer USA). As a musician himself, Selmer understood that you cannot separate the instrument from the artist, which is why every Selmer instrument is still individually tested and certified by the company’s team of professional musician certificators. Delivering exceptional value at every level, from student to professional, Selmer USA and Henri Selmer Paris offer a full line of woodwind and brass instruments. Sweetwater is proud to bring you Selmer’s rich legacy of quality and innovation.
