Die re7olution GbR
The team der re7olution GbR
Inventors Regina Engelhardt und Arne Siebling with Arnd, Nicole und Lilli Mumberg from the „Instrumentenschmiede Mumberg“
In 2017, the founders of re7olution GbR came together to realise the idea of being able to play the flute in a relaxed position.
The re7olution flute bow was developed in 2018 with the Baunatal instrument makers. Master woodwind instrument maker Arnd Mumberg enthusiastically realised the idea of professional musicians Regina Engelhardt and Arne Siebling and designed a prototype based on their ideas, which immediately impressed flutist Regina Engelhardt.
Made in Germany
Since 2019, the necessary steps for the patented flute bow, i.e. production, engraving, silver or gold plating and adaptation to the different flutes, have been carried out exclusively in Germany.
In our tests, gold brass has proven to be the best base material for producing a radiant but particularly warm tone and guaranteeing excellent intonation to the full extent.
We have also developed several options to make the new posture even more comfortable. There are various finger rests available, which we tried out during the development process and found to work well. A neck strap can also be used.
Different look?
Would you like to play the flute without pain and endless gymnastic exercises? But have reservations because the flute no longer meets your visual expectations?
Simply change!
You can swap the re7olution flute bow for your original flute head at any time. So practise pain-free, change the head and give concerts with a more relaxed back in the traditional position.
Prevention!
To avoid pain right from the start, we recommend not only starting with the traditional position, but also using the re7olution flute bow from the very beginning. Our experience has shown that the embouchure and fingerings are learnt much faster in the first two years. With the new posture, orchestra or rehearsal weeks do not become the familiar ordeal without the usual discomfort. But here, too, you can change as required
Simply happy
We are delighted that many people who were no longer able to play the flute for health reasons tell us how happy they are to be able to continue playing their favourite instrument.
There are many reasons to at least try out the re7olution flute bow and no real reason not to. Instead of just talking about diversity, we would like to give you the opportunity to get an impression of the advantages of a different-looking new development without any preconceptions.
