The size and material of the flute greatly influence its sound.
The flute is perhaps the most varied instrument around. It has been said that the Drum is the music of the Earth and the Flute is the music of the Sky and Winged Beasts.
The "classic" flute that Mozart composed for has undergone many variations since his time. Around the world, flute development took on independent directions.
While flutes were played in the concert halls of Europe, their melodies also resounded in the lives and lore of the Americas.
