When we play, a 'V' shape of condensation is created on the lip plate at the front. Looking closely at the more conventional headjoints, this 'V' tends to never complete its journey to arrive at its lowest point. Once the air arrives at the front edge of the lip plate, with no further support, it disperses; effectively falling off a cliff edge and dying. 

The Simply Flute by McKenna solves this problem with an almost continuous lip plate, allowing air to complete its natural journey.

How is the Simply Flute by McKenna headjoint different?

  • A focused and centered sound with noticeably less air noise
  • An extraordinary range of dynamics, in particular at the pianissimo end
  • Ease of playing, depth, and control in the bottom octave
  • Crisp, clear, and immediate articulation


Paul Edmund-Davies has used the Simply Flute headjoint on the soundtracks for James Bond: No Time to Die, Wonder Woman 1984, Blithe Spirit, and The Prom.
