Introduction To The Flute

The silver flute is a musical instrument, part of the woodwind family although, it is unlike others in the woodwind family. As it is made from fine metals such as silver, gold, copper and in many cases nickel. Most woodwind instruments such as a clarinet are made of wood sometimes with metal accents or furnishings.

A flute's sound is produced by blowing air across the lip plate, hitting the edge of the hole in the lip plate. This produces the sharp, clear, and vibrant sound of the flute.

Parts of the flute consist of only three, the head joint, body, and foot joint.
