What’s up guys!

If you have read my about page, then you will know that I play the flute. This is my 4th year playing and I really enjoy it! Here are some facts about a flute:

1. It was held vertically when it was first made
2. The clarinet’s key placement is based on flute keys
3. The flute is a woodwind
4. It does not have a reed
5. It takes a moderate amount of air to play
6. It takes practice to play correctly (like everything 😂)
7. You do not place your finger on every key
8. You can learn to play really high (Which is a lot of fun by the way)
9. On a lot of advanced songs, you have to play really high really quickly, so you have to spend a lot of time practicing
10. You get the melody on many songs, so, everyone has to play quieter so the audience can hear you!

Here is a picture of a gentleman playing a flute:

I hope this little list helped some of you guys understand the flute a bit better!
