The flute is a well known instrument in the woodwind family. A musician blows air across an opening causing the air to vibrate in the instrument and create sound. Holes can be covered or uncovered by the fingers or by the use of keys. This changes the airflow which then lowers or raises to pitch to produce music.Collection
