Pearl Flutes began 50 years ago as a small group of talented craftsmen with the desire to create instruments of the highest quality and performance. Our spirit of innovation is the guiding philosophy for our company and while five decades have passed, each generation of craftsman has handed down the techniques and expectations for perfection.
We have constantly engaged in the research of flute acoustics, materials, and design to produce the finest instruments available. This standard of seeking the highest level of performance led to the design in 1972 of the Pearl Pinless Mechanism and the truly unique One-Piece Core Bar. The resulting feel, touch, and speed from the Pearl Pinless Mechanism enhances the technical and musical potential for artists of any level.
We’re not just building a flute, we are building an instrument that is an expression and extension of your soul. For 50 years, our passion for sound quality has lead the company to innovate many features that have become the standard to which all others are compared. We look forward to the next 50 years!
