Any reviews on the Sonare` SF6BGF or Sonare` flutes in general?

HoTbOd sWiMmeR asked:


I’m an intermediate 7th grade flautist and I’m getting ready to buy a new flute. I went to a music store and played a few different brands, but I really like the sounds on all the registers of the flute, plus it helped that I found a place to postition where I was in tune. I wanted to know if anyone had any
comments on Sonare` flutes in general, and it wouldn’t be wonderful if you knew about the SF6BGF model specifically. Thanks! (It has a solid silver hand-crafted Powell headjoint, silver-plated body, in line G keys, open hole, and B foot if you don’t know it by the model name!)

    I haven’t played the model in question, but Powell is known for making good handmade flutes. The headjoint is the expensive part of this flute, with a student model body included. If you really like this flute and it is within your price range, it will be a good flute to take you to college, maybe even through college. A silver plated flute will eventually wear where it is plated, but this is probably a good intermediate level flute at a reasonable price. Professional models are very expensive and I might suggest you look into used pro models if your budget would allow it. I bought my used pro flute at

    Good luck, and happy fluting!

    Powell’s Sonare flutes are wonderful. They’re one of the best intermediate flute models out there right now, and I recommend them to my students if they can afford it. You need to be careful about the in line G key though. Do you have an in line G on the flute you play now? If you don’t, and have an offset G key instead, switching will be difficult and most people feel that the offset G is most comfortable and less strenuous for the fingers.
