I discovered the existence of native flutes (flutes of Native North America) in a tale. My heart missed a beat: I started looking for an instrument. The store where I ordered it (in Lyon) offers a wide range (different tones, cedar, birch or walnut) at prices fairly high but justified by the quality of the instrument and its precise tuning. They are branded "High Spirit". Indeed many flutes in the minds of native flutes are not very professional and do not play together because of the relativity of notes ... Pick me and Boch shipped Quickly and carefully instrument.Je I was not disappointed! The sound is warm, very gentle, very meditative, linked to the cedar that is the traditional materials of native flutes. I have methods and scores more, and since this is only happiness! I own the instrument from one quarter to date and I play it often. The fact that it is based on a pentatonic scale offers wonderful opportunities for improvisation. It is an instrument accessible to all, even without musical training, as there are (including the USA and Canada) many tabs. A magical instrument that I have to advise a colleague who wants to make music. Very good investment! Note that it is appropriate to inquire about the spacing of fingering the models because the instrument is more severe (types "bass"), they are more distant).
