connaissance du savoir-faire fran\u00e7ais semble \u00e9vidente. En effet, bien que l\u2019\u00e9caille ait \u00e9t\u00e9 introduite en Europe sous l\u2019impulsion des navigateurs portugais au XVI\u00e8me si\u00e8cle, sa diffusion et son d\u00e9veloppement au XVIII\u00e8me si\u00e8cle reposent sur le travail d\u2019Andr\u00e9-Charles Boulle, \u00e9b\u00e9niste de Louis XIV. Celui-ci a port\u00e9 \u00e0 son plus haut degr\u00e9 l\u2019art du placage en marqueterie constitu\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9cailles. Au temps de Heitz, le travail de l\u2019\u00e9caille de tortue \u00e9tait ainsi une sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 fran\u00e7aise et notre facteur, qui ma\u00eetrisait parfaitement cette technique, s\u2019est ainsi probablement form\u00e9 en France. Renfor\u00e7ant cette hypoth\u00e8se, un certain nombre d\u2019instruments r\u00e9alis\u00e9s au d\u00e9but de la carri\u00e8re de Heitz sont marqu\u00e9s d\u2019une fleur de lys. Selon&nbsp; Schmidt, ces derniers auraient \u00e9t\u00e9 produits pour le march\u00e9 fran\u00e7ais, et certainement pour la cour de France<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>. De plus, tr\u00e8s rares sont les autres facteurs qui ont r\u00e9alis\u00e9 des fl\u00fbtes plaqu\u00e9es d\u2019\u00e9cailles. Le grand nombre de fl\u00fbtes de Heitz pr\u00e9sentant un corps en buis recouvert d&#8217;\u00e9cailles de tortue et des bagues en ivoire a conduit Kirnbauer &amp; Krickeberg \u00e0 \u00e9mettre l\u2019hypoth\u00e8se que Pierre Jaillard &#8211; dit Peter Bressan &#8211; ait \u00e9t\u00e9 son ma\u00eetre<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[<\/sup><\/a><sup><a href=\"#_ftn2\">2<\/a><\/sup><a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>]<\/sup><\/a>, puisqu&#8217;il est le seul autre facteur connu \u00e0 avoir r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement utilis\u00e9 cette technique et que Heitz semble avoir travaill\u00e9 en France au d\u00e9but de sa carri\u00e8re. Comme le d\u00e9montrent plusieurs mod\u00e8les dont ceux du Mus\u00e9e de la musique de Paris, la facture de Heitz est effectivement tr\u00e8s proche de celle de Bressan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a id=\"_ftn1\" href=\"#_ftnref1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Manfred Hermann Schmidt, <em>Die Blockfl\u00f6ten des Musikinstrumentenmuseums in M\u00fcnchen\u201c<\/em> in <em>\u201e Bericht \u00fcber das VI.

Johann Heitz is, with Bressan, one of the only makers to have made flutes using this premium material.

He was immersed in the world of instrument making early on, since he became godfather to the child of a harpsichord maker in 1702<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>. We know little about his personal life, except that he married in 1703 and bought a house in 1732. Regarding his professional career, he was probably active in Berlin from 1700 as a wood turner, and in 1713 he is mentioned in archive documents as a cabinet maker. As a wood turner, he probably worked in collaboration with other corporations, and also used rare natural materials, such as ivory. This experience of working with premium materials explains the high craftsmanship of his tortoiseshell flutes. The craftsmanship of the piccolo in the sale of 7 May 2022, which is veneered with tortoiseshell, is typical of Johann Heitz. The quality of his work, meticulous in nature and not often found in other makers, earned him in 1710 the title of \u201cturner to the royal court and to the arts, as well as manufacturer of musical instruments\u201d<a id=\"_ftnref2\" href=\"#_ftn2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a>.

Given the close relationship between the courts of Berlin and K\u00f6then, it is very likely that he also made instruments for the latter around 1720. At that time, the court of K\u00f6then was calling upon the best makers and composers, the most famous of which was Johann Sebastian Bach. In particular, he wrote his <em>Brandenburg Concertos<\/em> for the court and had them performed in the chapel of K\u00f6then.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-top is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Johann Heitz also worked for the court of Darmstadt and for that of Bayreuth, as suggested by instruments from the estate of the last margrave of Bayreuth, Sophia Charlotte of Brunswick-L\u00fcneburg (1764-1817), which were donated to her most deserving servants after her death, such as the recorder kept at the Historisches Museum in Basel [1].

As with each of Johann Heitz&#8217;s tortoiseshell instruments, the piccolo&#8217;s craftsmanship is extremely meticulous and refined. In addition to their artistic qualities, Heitz\u2019s flutes have undeniable sound qualities which were prized by musicians and collectors. The relatively large number of examples veneered with tortoiseshell that he produced is particularly interesting, since it is a technique that Andr\u00e9-Charles Boulle perfected at the court of Louis XIV. Considering flutes made in this material are very rare, it is quite possible that Johann Heitz \u2013 as maker to the courts \u2013 also worked for the court of France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" id=\"_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Phillip T.

clear he was well versed in French making practices. Indeed, although tortoiseshell was introduced in Europe through Portuguese navigators in the 16th century, the spread and development of its use in the 18th century can be traced to the work of Andr\u00e9-Charles Boulle, cabinetmaker to Louis XIV. He perfected the art of marquetry using tortoiseshell. In Heitz\u2019s time, tortoiseshell work was a French speciality, and it is likely he learned his trade in France, which would explain why he perfectly mastered this technique. The fact that a number of instruments made early in Heitz&#8217;s career are stamped with a <em>fleur-de-lis<\/em> motif reinforces this theory. According to Schmidt, these would have been produced for the French market, most probably the French court<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a>. Moreover, very few other makers made tortoiseshell-veneered flutes. The large number of Heitz flutes in boxwood with tortoiseshell veneer and ivory rings led Kirnbauer &amp; Krickeberg to put forward the theory that Pierre Jaillard \u2013 also known as Peter Bressan \u2013 was his master<a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>[<\/sup><\/a><sup><a href=\"#_ftn2\">2<\/a><\/sup><a id=\"_ftnref1\" href=\"#_ftn1\"><sup>]<\/sup><\/a>, since he is the only other known maker to have regularly used this technique, and since Heitz seems to have worked in France at the beginning of his career. As shown by several examples, including those in the Musee de la musique de Paris, Heitz&#8217;s craftsmanship is indeed very close to that of Bressan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:15px\"><a id=\"_ftn1\" href=\"#_ftnref1\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/a> Manfred Hermann Schmidt, <em>Die Blockfl\u00f6ten des Musikinstrumentenmuseums in M\u00fcnchen\u201c<\/em> in <em>\u201e Bericht \u00fcber das VI.
