CUSTOM HANDMADE PICCOLOS

Heralded for flute-like sound and resonance, the Burkart custom handmade piccolo is the pinnacle of the American tradition.

Years of research and refinement have produced an instrument that defines the industry standard for acoustics and stability. An expansive and colourful sound makes Burkart custom handmade piccolos the premier choice for the piccolo professional.

LEGENDARY CRAFTSMANSHIP

The genesis of the Burkart tradition lies in the construction of the piccolo. The Burkart Piccolo Scale was revised in 2007, giving way to an even easier high register with incredibly accurate intonation as well as a full and resonant low register. The positioning of finger buttons and placement of touchpieces, combined with a delicate balance of spring tension, provide comfort and technical facility.

HAND-SELECTED MATERIALS

AFRICAN GRENADILLA WOOD

All Burkart piccolos are made of hand-selected, African grenadilla wood. An extensive ageing process provides unmatched stability and longevity to every piccolo. Burkart’s unique tone hole design produces a dark, resonant sound with unparalleled ease.

STERLING SILVER

Keywork, ribs, and posts are made of solid sterling silver, allowing for an exacting and precise mechanism fit.

PADS

Custom handmade piccolos are padded with Straubinger piccolo pads to compliment the Burkart piccolo scale, adding resonance and response in all registers. Cork pads are seated in the trills, thumb keys, and G# key to wick moisture and support reliable performance in all climates.

HANDCUT HEADJOINTS

CLARION

This relatively small embouchure hole, with modest rounding of the edges, is reminiscent of early French and German piccolos. The tone it produces is very focused and sweet. For players using a small aperture when playing, it will have the most stable, clear tone of the various headjoint styles.

WAVE

The headjoint profile is carved with a slightly higher front wall (the blowing edge) and lower back wall against which the chin rests. It produces a very rich, clean, projecting tone, with easy control of dynamics. The low register is very focused, enabling good projection and articulation.
