INFANT THROUGH SCHOOL AGE

Today in music class we learned all about the flute: how many pieces assemble it, the head joint, embouchure, keys and pads, air technique, and how it is a member of the woodwind family. I have several flutes but today I brought an open-holed flute to share. We had fun trying different breath techniques, moving to the pace of the flute's music and also creating a paper flute that even had "hole punched" keys! Ask your child about the flute and if they enjoyed listening today! =)
