$ 139.00 $ 120.00
Our Kestrel Flute in the high-tone key of 'D' minor is made from domestic Aromatic Cedar, a softwood with a warm, resonant and full musical voice.
Our high-tone flutes are a great instrument for drum circles because their higher pitch allows them to beautifully stands out among lower-tone instruments.
In general the key of 'D' is often recognized because it is the primary key of Penny Whistles, which adds to the versatility of the Kestrel 'D' for pairing with other instruments and musical styles.
This flute is tuned to the key of "D" minor, and it can also be played in the relative major diatonic scale in the key of "F".
The Kestrel 'D' is the highest octave flute that we make in the key of 'D' minor, which makes it a great accompaniment to any of our other bass tone flutes in the key of 'D' such as our Condor Bass 'D'.
The compact size of our Kestrel Flutes make them an ideal choice for those wanting to use their flutes for travel or outdoor activities such as hiking or backpacking. The Kestrel 'D' is 15 inches (38 cm) in length.
Our Preservation Collection was developed from our commitment to sustainability in the woodworking process, and our deep respect for the Earth's natural resources.
Preservation Collection flutes are different from our regular flute collection because of small imperfections like minor shaping inconsistencies, stone inlay variations, design prototypes, unique wood qualities, or other cosmetic differences, which don't meet the aesthetic perfection of our regular flute line but never compromise their excellent sound quality.
Every flute in our Preservation Collection still meets our company's high-quality, American handcrafted, woodwind instrument guarantee, just at a deeply discounted value.
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.
