History The Quantz Series is an homage to the legendary Baroque composer and flutist, Johann Joachim Quantz (1697-1773), who gave us a rich and renowned abundance of flute compositions. The Special Quantz Wall The Quantz Series are enhanced by a unique wall that gives a dark and rich sound, especially in the low register. The Unique Pearl SoundArtists continually remark about the sound's beauty and subtlety, which is further enhanced through Pearl's equal dedication to rock solid intonation. In addition, the technological advancements on each flute allow flawless shifts from the most projecting of concert sounds to the most delicate subtle nuances. Pinless Construction All of this attention to the character of the Pearl sound and intonation would not be possible without their equal dedication to reliability. In 1982, Pearl's innovative technicians created their patented One-Piece Core-Bar and Pinless Construction; perpetual smoothness of the key action became a reality.
