THE BUFFET CRAMPON FLUTE HAS A HISTORY THAT CAN BE TRACED BACK TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MODERN CONCERT FLUTE. THE FLUTES ARE STRONGER YET LIGHTER, CRAFTED USING MODERN METHODS YET MAINTAIN A TRADITIONAL APPEARANCE, AND THE KEY ACTION FEELS COMPARABLE TO A HAND BUILT MODEL YET IT REMAINS COMPETITIVELY PRICED. ALBERT COOPER, A NAME RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY DESIGN INNOVATIONS FOUND ON BUFFET FLUTES IS ALSO A NAME SYNONYMOUS WITH MODERN FLUTE INTONATION. AS AN EMPLOYEE OF A VENERABLE FLUTE MAKING FIRM THAT TRACES ITS HERITAGE TO TODAY'S BUFFET CRAMPON. COOPER RESEARCHED THE TUNING DIFFICULTIES EXPERIENCED BY FLUTE PLAYERS AND REWORKED THEOBOLD BOEHM'S ORIGINAL FLUTE DESIGN CALCULATIONS USING A MODERN PITCH OF A-440HZ PER SECOND. THE RESULT WAS THE COOPER SCALE, WHICH WAS SOON ADOPTED BY FLUTE PLAYERS AS THE INTERNATIONAL STANDARD FOR FLUTE TUNING. THE DEVELOPMENTS PRODUCED BY ALBERT COOPER COMBINED WITH THE CONTINUANCE OF MORE THAN TWO CENTURIES OF FLUTE RESEARCH AND PRODUCTION RESULT IN THE BUFFET CRAMPON FLUTE BEING THE MOST HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT FLUTE AVAILABLE TODAY. THE COOPER SCALE IS USED ON MOST OF THE BEST FLUTES IN THE WORLD WITH A LIST PRICE OF $8,000.00 AN UP.
