Choroi Wooden Interval Flute d"-a"

Descripción

Interval flutes developed especially for use by children, particularly in groups. They have just one finger hole, allowing two notes in a fourth or fifth interval. Two or more players can easily play simple rhythmical or melodical patterns e.g., in a way of question-and-answer games. Differently tuned flutes can be combined in a group, to play elementary melodies up to a pentatonic scale. Finger hole closed = d''; finger hole open = a'' (a=440Htz). Other intervals are also available separately (d'-g" and e"-b"). Treated with linseed oil. It is recommended that the Choroi linseed oil be used for continual treatment of flute (also available on Amazon). Accessories: wooden cleaning swab, cotton flute bag, and manual. All the Choroi flutes are characterized by a warm, light, flexible tone. Compared with traditional instruments, the Choroi flutes possess a tone that sounds more like a voice than an instrument. This unique tone quality leads to a corresponding style of play. A free outbreathing, rather than an active blowing, forms the foundation for the tone. The mouth and lip positions also contribute to the tone formation. The fingers gently touch the specially formed finger holes, which allow half-steps to be achieved naturally by half-covering the holes.
