Kestrel - E - Aromatic Cedar
Kestrel - E - Aromatic Cedar
The High Spirits high tone Kestrel flute in the key of E minor is handcrafted from domestic Aromatic Cedar wood. It is hand-finished with non-toxic oils that seal the flute and give it a warm, full, resonant musical voice.
Higher toned flutes are ideal for musical collaborations like drum circles because their higher tones beautifully stands out against other lower toned instruments.
The Kestrel's compact size makes it a very versatile flute that is ideal for traveling and hiking; it is 15-inches (38 cm) in length.
This flute is also an excellent accompaniment to any of our other flutes in the key of 'E' minor.
This is a 6-hole flute. We cover the 3rd hole from the top, known as the 6th hole, with a leather hole cover so you have the option to play it as a 5-hole flute (which tends to make the learning process easier) or as a 6-hole flute.
We've named this flute after the American Kestrel (Falco sparverius) which is one of the smallest and most common falcon birds found in North America.
Each flute includes a FREE printed instructional booklet with fingering charts as well as an overview of the FREE High Spirits digital library and YouTube channel, filled with an extensive collection of 'how to play' videos, including new player flute lessons, instruction for intermediate & advanced players, as well as a wide range of videos focused on tips and techniques for understanding and mastering the High Spirit flutes.
