The flute, an instrument of the woodwind family, creates tones by the use of air and pitch. The flute nowadays is approximately 26 inches in length and the center is about 3/4" in diameter. The end of the flute is open producing a sound of its own. The sound produced is dependent upon the musicians lip formation and the air that moves through the cylinder.
The flute consists of a collection of 16 exposures, of which 11 of them can be opened and closed to change the pitch. The other 5 can be opened and closed by a rearrangement of the fingers and left thumb. So, a establishment of home places for specific fingers is taught; the person playing rearranges the fingers down the flute neck to create different tones.
This instruments melody is created by air passing over a sharp end. The air is then compressed inside the body of the flute and the air is vibrated. This air then gets pitched and corrected through the use of keys and button. Usually, the flute is made of either silver or wood and differs depending on area.
An instrument from the same family, the recorder, uses air to create sounds but through a wood piece instead of silver or metal. The recorder is said to be less effective because with the flute, the player has control over the angle in which the air from the his/her lips hits the mouthpiece; this has a major impact over the variable sounds produced from these instruments. This variance of the mouthpiece allows a flute player to stretch notes out, further tune sounds, and produce a broad range of volume and tempo. To boot, the mouthpiece on a flute helps the musician not to over-blow the notes. Over-blowing occurs when one attempts to achieve higher notes by changing octave levels with the air control valve. It is hard to bend ones lips and increase air flow to reach this octave, and therefore, a flute makes this possible because of the mouthpiece.
A flute can also vary pitch by the use of the side cavities. By shortening the air wave and increasing the space of the open air channel, one can achieve these higher notes. This is achieved by raising the harmonic one octave from the fundamental position. The pitch can also be manipulated by aiming air down through the mouthpiece or aiming air high on the mouthpiece. This is also changed by the distance of the lips to the mouthpiece.
Whatever flute is being used, the attendees of the event can be sure of sweet, soft, and melodic harmony that can be used in high and low pitches. Flutes are a great addition in any rhythm and are typically seen at a music production on stage. Flutes have a history going back to the days of orchestras and have been improved upon to be made better and provide more control. Like several instruments, flutes vary in brand and style. As a result in the variance of brands available, flutes very in price. The better quality flutes for professional bands can cost a couple hundred dollars. Starter flutes mostly cost about $50 or so and are great for someone that is learning.
