The Flute and Piccolo pictured above are played by blowing over the mouth hole as you would a bottle. By saying "too" while feeling the edge of the hole with your lower lip, your lips will be in proper position. All of our Windsong Flutes and Piccolos employ the same simple but efficient fingering system that make these instruments easy to learn and play. The Flute is made in the key of G. This means that the lowest note you can play is the G and that the diatonic do.. re.. me.. scale in the key of G will be played with straight fingering. The Piccolo is played in the same manner as the G flute but at a higher pitch. It's lowest note will be a C and straight fingering will play the C diatonic scale. This simple fingering system makes it very easy to figure out simple melodies such as those in many simple nursery rhymes and children's songs. When you use the included fingering chart to learn all the other notes in the chromatic scale you end up with a very versatile instrument capable of playing in many different keys.
