FLUTE
 Flute is an age-old wind instrument used both for playing
classical and light music notes. The instrument is remembered associated with Lord
Krishna.
Flute is simple cylindrical tube of uniform girth. It is closed at one end and has a mouth
hole and 7-9 finger holes placed in a straight line. The mouth hole is slightly bigger
than the finger holes and is used for blowing, while the finger holes of uniform size are
tapped with the fingers to
produce
the musical notes.
Flutes can be made of Ivory, Bamboo, Sandalwood, Ebony,
Iron, Silver or Gold. But, of all the materials, Bamboo is preferred the most for its
excellent tonal quality and resonating properties. |
