FROM HUMBLE beginnings Friendly Flutes has carried with it the promise of quality, consistency and customer care. From its founding as a secondhand woodwind dealership, these core principles have resulted in customer satisfaction and rapid growth of the business. The arrival of Beaumont Flutes in 2010 marked the culmination of a hard fought path – striving to deliver high quality, high performance instruments at an affordable price in a discerning market. On its introduction last year, the entry- level Beaumont Piper flute received rave reviews from professionals, teachers and technicians alike. The Piper offers the aspiring flautist a high quality affordable instrument that will take them up to Grade 5. The ideas, impartial feedback and experience utilised to develop these flutes are exemplified by the use of double- ringed keys – encouraging correct finger positioning and aiding the transition to open-holed flutes. The Piper was soon followed by the Beaumont Alina, which truly excited both professionals and teachers in early reviews. Retailing at

Friendly Flutes was named as a winner in the national Startups Awards 2010.
£459.99, the Beaumont Alina is in a league of its own. Teachers expressed delight at the prospect of a quality solid-head flute at this price. Every Beaumont flute is meticulously set up and regulated prior to distribution. A solid silver Beaumont flute, oboe and clarinet are also in the latter stages of development. Friendly Flutes’ achievements led to it being named as winners in the national Startups Awards 2010, an award that has gained the company and its Beaumont Flutes much recognition. Judges were impressed by the company’s ability to develop a more affordable entry-level instrument alongside building a strong community for enthusiasts and newcomers alike. It is this approach, which has enabled Beaumont to emerge as a ‘recognised brand’,
gaining the support of flute teachers. With excellent margins,
outstanding after sales service and guaranteed consistency the Beaumont instruments are an appealing proposition. If you would like to know more about Beaumont, visit
