Our EarthTone Spirit Flute in the key of high 'D' minor is tuned to the 432 Hz, a frequency considered to be aligned with sound healing. This flute is handcrafted in southern Arizona from Quilted Maple, which is a hardwood that gives the flute a crisp, clear musical voice with clarity on the high notes.
Our Spirit Flutes feature a unique fixed sound-plate that's design to be durable and travel-friendly. It is approximately 11.0 inches (28 cm) in length making a small flute, which makes it great for travel, those with small hands, and limited hand mobility.
Sound Sample - the flute featured in the sound sample is the same EarthTone Spirit Flute high 'D' but in Madrone wood rather than Quilted Maple. Both are hardwoods with very similar density so the flute's musical voices are close to identical.
This is a six hole flute. We automatically include a leather hole cover with this flute, which can be used on the third hole from the top of the flute, as seen in the product's images. Covering the third hole from the top makes the flute easier to learn to play. The leather hole cover can easily be untied and removed, giving the flute player the option of playing the instrument as either a five hole flute or a six hole flute.
