As you can se we decided to change the brand name after debating it for years. Matija is my son's name, and he is the one to carry on, hopefully. The master flutemaker Boris Popovich started at Verne Q. Powell Flutes in September 2000 by the invitation of Stephen Finley, vice president of quality at that time. After having made over 500 flutes there and another 100 at Haynes flutes, he decided to start Murali Flutes in 2005. Boris made frequent trips to flute factories in China and started making his models there, first in cooperation with Di Zhao, and then with other factories. All flutes are supervised and hands on finished by Boris Popovich to ensure top quality. Our websites: matijaflutes.com fluterentalsonline.com WeChat: boki108 Line: boki108 Instagram: matijaflutes
