Headjoint for a transverse flute having
- a mouthpiece (1),
- at least one adapter piece (2a, 2b), the adapter piece (2a, 2b) comprising
- a first connection section (2a.1, 2b.1) releasably connectable to the mouthpiece (1) and
- a second connection section (2a.2, 2b.2) slidably connectable to a flute component,
- characterized in that in a state, when the second connection section (2a.2, 2b.2) is connected to the flute component, the second connection section (2a.2, 2b.2) is surrounded only by the flute component, wherein the mouthpiece (1) has an embouchure hole (1.1) surrounded by a lip plate (1.2), wherein the lip plate (1.2) is symmetrical to a plane defined by a longitudinal axis of the mouthpiece (1) and a line extending through the embouchure hole (1.1) and being parallel to the longitudinal axis of the mouthpiece (1).
