The history of modern flute-making in Japan began in 1923 with the very first flute made by the late pioneer, Koichi Muramatsu, an eminent artisan and the founder of Muramatsu Flutes. At that time, the number of amateur and professional flute players in Japan totaled a mere twenty. Mr. Muramatsu's devoted efforts and passion for flute-making remain alive in the fundamental philosophy of Muramatsu Flutes today.

Mr. Muramatsu often said, "Every artisan must also be a flutist. Without knowing the flute, we cannot answer to the demands of each and every flutists." His philosophy has been passed down to the artisans of today. This diligent study of the instrument fuels the motivation of Muramatsu artisans to craft the finest in handmade flutes.

Muramatsu flutes consistently exceed the expectations of discerning flutists around the globe. Muramatsu Flutes evolved to become the world leader in professional flute-making under the leadership of the late Osamu Muramatsu, the successor of the pioneer, Koichi Muramatsu. Now, their laudable philosophy has been passed on to the next generation, lead by Akio Muramatsu. The Muramatsu flute is the preferred instrument for flute soloists and flutists of world-renowned orchestras.
