Pre-Owned Lillian Burkart "Burkart cut" Grenadilla Piccolo Headjoint
Our Description
Burkart (standard) cut - The rectangular shape of this embouchure is slightly overcut at the sides of the embouchure hole for an open, "flute-like" sound that blends well in ensembles. The most flexible headjoint style from Burkart, you can push it to the extremes of fortissimo high notes without it being shrill, and it can produce a colourful, sustained diminuendo.
