Both head joints are for playing at different pitches. We believe that one head joint plays at A = 440, and the other at A = 444. The lower-pitched head joint is engraved with a stunning picture of an embouchure hole with wind gliding in and around it. The flute case stores the body tube and foot joint as one piece.
