I admire your review about Sankyo flute with RT headjoint. This VDO totally explains my feelings & how I work on my own Sankyo RT. Big Thanks ^^
Thank you for making this video! I have been a Sankyo player for over 11 years now and have always used ST and RT headjoints. I recently got a new FT headjoint and found your tip to "not cram the headjoint into your lower lip" to be extremely helpful when playing below low D, as well as above high F. Had I not watched this video I would have returned the headjoint because I thought the FT was too "stuffy" and finicky, but as soon as I made this minor adjustment everything worked perfectly!
Thanks for doing these reviews Joanna!!!! They're always a highlight on my Saturday!
+ryanmikalson Of course! I hope you're still enjoying your Miyazawa! 😊
Your review of the RT is pretty accurate. This model is named after the original NRS-1 design developed for Alain Marion, so the french articulation as the best for this model makes sense.
I watched two masterclasses in a Rio flute festival in the 90`s and his sound was biggest of all. In the classes he stressed exercises to open the throat and mouth, so your instruction about "wind ball" is spot on.
In resume, RT is a headjoint for people capable to generate a lot of air, with strong diaphragm (he stressed this too in the classes) and relaxed mouth and throat.
He left his personal flute together with the intermediate and student models in the Sankyo stand and we could try it. It was a 24K headjoint and 18K body with silver keys. In the concert hall the sound was beautiful and fat. All the others (including some well known names with gold and platinum Powell, Haynes and Brannen, sounded trebly and with less body, in comparison.
His air stream was in crown direction, as Bouriakov and late Rampal (his teacher). This generates a stronger fundamental and fatter tone.
RIP master Alain marion.
You inspire me so much! I watch your videos everyday for tips. One day I would wanna be like you. Keep making videos Joana!
+메신저 iiomqSkylxr Aw, thank you, that's so sweet!
Your videos are so helpful to me, as I am rediscovering my love for flute after about 25 years away! I played recorder in high school, but as a college music major, they told me I had to pick up a band instrument so chose flute. A cheap flute (barely) got me through college, eventually graduating with my music BA at CSULB in 1985 (wasn't good enough to do a senior recital so I did a mini-thesis instead!). Disillusioned, I went to library school to become a librarian, but kept up with my fluting on and off. In 1988, I purchased a used Sankyo Silver Sonic, which later became the C301 (same as the 201 but with all silver body and head, plated mechanism). When I started playing in a couple of church bands in 1994, I traded it in for the open hole, B foot version of the Silver Sonic (plus got an Altus Alto AF921SE which nearly broke the bank but I adore!) and as my love for flute grew, I ended up purchasing in 1996 a Drelinger Karritium "Modern Wing" headjoint with "gold air reed". I noticed that this Drelinger headjoint has the same raised lip as the RT headjoint, and I'm noticing it does indeed have that same full strong low register that you're describing! I looked through your videos and didn't see any reviews of the Drelinger headjoints, so I'm wondering if maybe in the future you might feature them as well? (Also while I'm asking, maybe you could someday do a review of the Altus Alto line of flutes!). I love your videos -- thanks so much for helping out a guy who hasn't had a flute lesson in 34 years but is learning so much!!
These videos are incredibly useful, I wish there was something like this for clarinets 😞.
+Jonatrus I'm very sure there will be some time. 😉
I may be an oboist, but your videos are so good that I just have to watch all of them
Oh, thank you so much!! That means a lot to me :)
I have the NRS-1 which is now RT headjoint and this baby is LOUD I love it so much. You can get the most velvety low register. I have it on a pro model Yamaha
Holy Cow. Just Wow. Wow. That RT head joint sounded absolutely incredible. I don't know if it's just your amazing playing, but if I had the money, I'd buy it in a second!! T^T thank you so much for making these videos, they're amazing!
+Grace Pent Hahahaha, crazy intense rich projecting sound, right? I love it too!
I actually just bought my Sankyo 301with RT head joint and I must say... Thank you for this, I finally know how to properly direct my air into the head joint (was facing trouble with the higher register). And yes! I agree with you that the flute sounds crazy on the fortes. But it is a joy to play it.
+Jacobe Lim That's wonderful! It took a bit of experimenting for me to find it, and when I did, BOOM, WOW! The RT is a BEAST! 😃
First up! OMG THANK YOU FOR REPLYING!! When I first got the flute and the head joint I sounded like a beginner. And it really took me quite a while.
I love your flute reviews! You should do more of them and more story times
Haha, sure thing! :)
JustAnotherFlutist thanks so much!!!!
I love your reviews so much! You're so freakin' hilarious and honest. I've been playing on my Jupiter 711 for so many years now but in the next year or so I'm definitely going to upgrade. I'd like to see more full professional model reviews as well as semi-pro models (preferably with full silver bodies - it really let's the color of each headjoint shine - with all the plated bodies, I found myself listening through that sound to single out how the headjoint plays)
Congrats on 200 videos!
+MisterSpeedStacking Aw, thanks! Hahaha, I didn't even notice! 😆
Hi Joanna!! I love your reviews, because when it was time to get a new flute I just bought one blindly. Now I own a Pearl 765 Quantz, stirling silver V cut headjoint. I find it more challenging than the C cut however. Should i keep practicingg or find a headjoint that chooses me ;) ?

Oh oh! And last night my marching band played and I was a Prop commander!!
OMG HAHAHAHA you got it to fit so nicely with the theme of this video!!! XD XD And woohoo, congrats!! :D
Thx!
Thank you for this review! Would you recommend this to an undergrad music student?
That Harry Potter reference was just... beautiful xD
hi Im an flute player and my first flute was an altus 907, I m considering to buy one new silver flute to play some modern style music such as jazz or jazzy hiphop,can you recommend some types?? I tend to a sankyo or altus 11/1207..but i have no ideas about whats the differences between them..confuse..
Any chance you can review some alto flutes? Preferably in the lower price range
Hi Joanna and fellow flutists. I just received a Sankyo 201 along with the three head choices to check out for a week on a trial. I am primarily a jazz/rock tenor sax player and a bit of a novice on the flute from a technical perspective. I am having a lot of trouble figuring out which headjoint I like the best :(. I play on one for a while and get used to it and like it - then I play on the next one and get used to it - and like it too. If anyone out there can give some info on these three heads, that make sense to a sax player who doubles on flute, it would be appreciated. Thanks, Rich
Which ST and RT cuts did you review ?
I can only assume RT-2 and ST-2. Thanks.
I like all the comments but It'd be helpful to have a side by side comparison between head joints so you do a scale on one then go to the next to the next etc so you can hear the diffenence without having to find it/search for it. K
Lysm! I am a beginner... any tips!! ilysm!!!!
I love you too! I have a couple beginner tutorials that should help! Most importantly, keep practicing and don't give up! :)
JustAnotherFlutist tysm I will check 'em out
Annie Ngo I am not that beginer I know that I have a plastic cleaning rod but I still get light headed when I play
Love from Texas :)
Amazing review as always Joanna! Can you review more flutes by Jupiter? I have the D-Loop model of it which is for kids. Again I LOVE your videos and keep this up ^-^ Ps: Sorry for my bad English
Your English is awesome! Jupiter is still on my list, so don't worry! :) Thank you for watching!
JustAnotherFlutist Awwww thanks! Plus so that you know English isn't my first language. My first language is German but I perfected my English in school. Yes I know personal XD again your videos are AMAZING! Love from Austria 😘
3:10- Kingma system is the quarter tone system, not quarter note system.
+Paul Mizzi Yeah, I think I said it both ways, haha! Thank you for the correction 😊
O yes! One note though, the A foot Flute has 2 extra keys (one to play Bb, and another for A) , not 1.
+Jacobe Lim Ah! Thank you for the correction, you're quite right!
Hi, any other video on sankyo higher silver models like 501, I like that more, thanks.
+Louie Tang Making my way up the higher end models! 😊
Can you do a review on silver piccolos? Are they better than wood piccolos?
I'd say they're different and usually used for different purposes :)
Could you maybe sometime make a video on that?
if I may, I would say that the silver piccolos are often used in marching bands, and they are less sensitive to climate changes etc, and cheaper in value. On the other hand, wood piccolos are used in orchestral and wind ensembles etc. Because of the wood, more expensive and more sensitive, the piccolo in wood can be more flexible in terms of sound, color changes, etc depending on the headjoint. In a long run, professionally speaking, I recommend you to buy a wood picc.
Generally wood piccolos have a less strident timbre, but silver piccolos can be real nice even for indoor settings. Haynes used to make great silver piccs and I think Sankyo still makes one.
Please could you review the Miyazawa 702 xx
+Blue Diamonds Forever I'll put it on the list!
Hi I'm jamaria I'm on my dad's account and I'm learning the flute can you do an beginner tips video! plz
+Jaquan Gardner Hi Jamaria and Jaquan! I have a few beginner flute videos, check out my tutorials playlist! 😊 Happy practicing! Thank you for watching!! I really appreciate it 😊
Miyazawa has a special way to remove the key plug???????
+talkky Yup! Check out my Miyazawa video! I talk about it there 😊
JustAnotherFlutist oh god I pushed mine straight through the key ._.
Would you be able to make a guide for headjoint purchasing and piccolo purchasing via online?
+Steven Hughes That may be in the works for the future 😊 I'm currently still working my way through the brands!
Nagahara??
Concert, standard, and Galway?????
Hahahaha, it's already on the list ;)
