The NUVOBand flute weighs about half as much as a traditional model. It is made from a lightweight yet durable engineering polymer, specifically blended to achieve a high strength-to-weight ratio while maintaining good acoustic properties.
The embouchure hole is cut to encourage beginners, but also to provide a rich and responsive tone in all registers up to the intermediate level. The NUVOBand flute also features carefully positioned silicone touch points to ensure a good grip as well as to maximize comfort and proper posture during rehearsals and performances.
The padded carrying case allows the flute to be stored in 3 pieces, oriented for easy and intuitive assembly and disassembly.
