I play Flute, FYI.
My flute is a Gemienhardt (Pronounced: Gemienhart). A Flute's embouchure hole, you DO NOT put your mouth over the hole you cover 1/4 to 1/3 of the hole. (Thats a mistake I made. ._.;; Unlike the Clarinet,Oboe and Sax ; the Flute is held sideways either left or right, depends on the way you hole a pencil. Flutes on take about... 10- seconds just to assemble it. The noise produced from a Flute can be soft,low,high,loud and piercing, depending on the way you shape your mouth: High notes you need a little opening in your mouth, low notes need a big (but not like your yelling!! ) opening in your mouth, loud notes need a small opening and TONS of air, soft notes need a big opening and little amount of air. Me, I can't do high or loud notes.. The flute has keys, no slide(I wish!! ) flutes have 19 keys. Mr,Hanna(My BD) said I should do the flute becuase I am quite and it would be easy. the case: 12( H) 4(Height) 12( Base ) . The Flute: Two feet
Pros:
The instrument is light unlike a Baritone.
Fast to set up.
Small case.
Cons:
It is held to the side of your face and you cant see the keys!!
Low sound.
Small instrument(Hey thats just me, I don't like small instruments.. )
(IN MY BAND PRACTICE) the Woodwinds have to play SUPER Loud and Brass has to play low.
I think Flute is a good instrument.
