Feature
Inline tone holes for traditional fingering placement6-hole flute in the key of "C" great for playing Irish and traditional music
Kiln fired Lurgan Celtic decoration in red, green, blue, black and yellow
Handcrafted in Washington State, USA by flute maker James Hall from borosilicate glass (81% quartz)
Foam lined dark-green storage box with gold stamped logo, and fingering chart included
Description
This Hall Crystal Flute is handcrafted in Washington State, USA by flute maker James Hall. Starting with precision Pyrex glass tubing, it is sealed and carefully shaped to create a Boehm taper producing beautiful and accurate tones throughout its tonal range. After shaping and tuning the tone holes, the flute is decorated and kiln fired to fuse the decorations and insure durability. Each flute is a handcrafted work of glass art. This flute will arrive nestled in a classy foam lined dark-green storage box with gold stamped logo, along with a complete fingering chart. Free sheet music is avalible on the Hall Crystal Flute website.
The Hall crystal flute is a folk or historical instrument and plays differently than a modern concert flute. The mouth hole has a raised edge and no lip plate. If you play the silver flute, this will take some time to get used to. The biggest difference is that you will need to place the flute higher on the lip and use a slightly tighter embouchure. Of course you can play any style of music you wish. Being a 6-holed flute it is well-suited for playing Celtic music and traditional tunes. It is also similar in design to the renaissance or baroque flute so is excellent for this as well.
11293 Inline C Piccolo - Lurgan Celtic
The C Piccolo is our lower pitched piccolo. It makes clean crisp sounds; softer and mellower than the silver piccolo. Our Piccolos are great for small hands, for the fingering holes are placed close together making it easier to cover the tone holes. The piccolo, being a higher pitched instrument, requires a tighter embouchure then our larger flutes.
Lowest Note: C5 - (one octave above middle C)
Range: 2 Octaves
Chromatics: Yes - (Using half-holes)
Primary Key: C - (no half holes necessary)
Secondary Key: F - (no half holes necessary)
Offset Tone Holes: No
