The
flute belongs to the woodwind family and produces its sound from the
flow of air across an opening. The pitch of the sound is changed when
the player opens or closes the various holes in its body. Beginners’
flutes are often made from nickel or silver-plated brass whilst
professionals use solid silver, gold and sometimes even platinum flutes.
Wooden flutes produce a dark sound whereas silver flutes produce a
brighter sound.
Woodwind
instruments are easier to learn than string instruments or keyboard
because pupils can make progress quicker on them and are able to learn
three notes in the first lesson. It is a versatile instrument and is
used in classical, jazz and modern band ensembles.Playing the flute is
relaxing, improves co-ordination, concentration and self-discipline.
