Carrying Case  Flute Cleaning Rod	INSTRUMENT FLUTE HISTORY An ancient Chinese flute, the "tsche," played in about 2637 BC, is believed to be the earliest transverse flute (an instrument held horizontally). Made of bamboo, both sides were closed, with a mouth-hole in the middle. Flute have been made of glass, wood, ceramic, brass, and even human and animal bones. Gradually, improvements over the crude designs were made, keys were added, and attempts were made to improve the pitch and sound of the instrument. It is to the genius of Theobald Boehm of Munich (1794-1881), a flutist, composer, and inventor, that we owe credit for the modern flute used today.

Unlike the violin, there are no graduated sizes to fit students as they grow. The entry-level flute has the same size finger placement as the professional model. Most young players, however, do not experience insurmountable problems. As mentioned earlier, the young student who has difficulty reaching the keys because of the instrument's length should start with a flute that offers a curved-style head joint. This head joint positions the instrument flute body and keys within the reach of smaller players. As the young flutist grows, a change to the regular straight head joint can be made. The band director or fl. teacher can assist parents with this decision.

It is extremely important for the beginner student to have a high-quality, entry-level instrument. Buying a used instrument or "bargain basement" Flute without consulting a professional flutist is ill-advised, as you may be wasting your money. Badly made flutes encourage early student dropouts from band programs. Most good entry-level flutes are priced in the $600 range for a plateau (closed-hole) model. French models (open-hole) cost approximately $150 more.
