Miyazawa is proud that they are the exclusive flute manufacturing company who will be making flutes with the Brögger System™: the most advanced and stable mechanism design available in the marketplace today!

The Brögger System™ was designed by Danish flutemaker Johan Brögger, who gained international recognition with his Brögger Mekanik™ design approximately 20 years ago. Since then, he has developed the Brögger System™ which advances his original concept and includes the innovative and ground-breaking Brögger thumb key design. This translates into some very important benefits that every performer will appreciate:

Increased structural security for a stronger, more stable and precise mechanism
Solid, reliable feel and the fastest response
The pioneering Brögger Thumb Key Mechanism™ featuring an ergonomic design with less hand fatigue for the flutist


The Brögger System™ is a pinless mainline mechanism which gives the flute player a very stable, quiet and longer lasting mechanism.

The innovative inclined thumb key design gives a much smoother and responsive action. The usual thumb key mechanism on flute from all other manufacturers have a flat spring which is positioned on the body tube whereas the Brögger thumb key™ design has unique needle springs construction for the Bb and B keys. There is therefore no contact and friction between springs and body tubing.

Clare plays a Platinum Miyazawa flute with 14k gold mechanism, open G# and C foot joint.
