This flute sounds magical and everyone can play it (no previous knowledge necessary). The flute has a fixed scale, however the separate tones can be modified to half tones by adjusting the amount of air. This gives you more possibilities than a recorder.
The high craftsmanship and inviting character of the flute encourage even the beginner to improvise. They have six holes, and come set up as a 5-hole flute, with removable leather wrapping over the 6th hole. Playing with 6 holes is more difficult but has more notes and is Diatonic. This can be studied with the fingering-chart in the booklet. The 5-hole layout is pentatonic and easier for beginners. Setup for 5 or 6 tones. Comes with an instructional booklet.
Flute maker Odell Borg makes each Native American style High Spirits flute from a solid piece of the finest cedar, walnut, birch and other fine domestic plantation-grown woods or recycled timber, finished with three coats of a non-toxic hardening oil for durability and clarity of sound. Each Native American style flute is precision-tuned so that it will blend perfectly with other instruments
