FLUTE
That beautiful sweet sound!
WHAT IS A
FLUTE?
The flute is a beautiful, shiny silver instrument with lots of keys. Sound is made by blowing air across the hole in the head joint and changing notes using keys along the body.
​
It is especially good at playing high notes and can play any song you like.
WHERE DOES IT
FIT IN THE BAND?
Flute players work together to make a beautiful, sweet sound.
​​
They sit at the front of the band opposite the Clarinet players and get to play the melody a lot.
​​
The best player is the leader of the Flute team, they sit closest to the conductor in the front row.
CAN I TRY IT
ON FOR SIZE?
Absolutely!
That's the best way to see if the Flute is for you.
​
Book into an Instrument Demo session to try the Clarinet with the guidance of an Upscale Music Teacher.
HOW DO I KNOW IF IT'S FOR ME?
You just love the sweet sound! The Flute is played by blowing across an open hole, like when you blow across the top of a bottle. You need to blow a lot of air to play the flute, the most out of all of the wind instruments, but you don’t have to blow the air hard. You then use lots of keys to cover up holes along the flute which changes the pitch of the notes, so having good finger dexterity is important.
