17 Open Hole Flute

Generally speaking, the 17 hole flute can be divided into two categories, open hole flute and closed hole flute. The closed hole flute has a stable air stream, so it is easy for beginners to master the pitch quickly, with no need of deliberately controlling the deviation brought by unstable air stream with their fingers.

Considering the different stages of learning, a sealing plug is filled in the open hole, so our 17 open hole flute can also be used as an closed hole flute in the early period of learning, and then after a period of time, it can be used as an open hole flute by removing the plug.

We can offer the 17 hole flute, on either open hole or closed hole category. The silver, nickel and gold plated surface are all available for our 17 hole flute.

Features

The open hole on the key cover increases air stream, thus increasing the volume. However, it is difficult for beginners to control and may lead to deviation of timbre and intonation. Due to this, the open hole flute is suitable for those who have playing experience.

The 17 open hole flute can easily realize a vocal slide between two pitches, which is impossible for closed hole flute. It can also help beginners to develop good playing habits, because their fingers should fully cover the open holes to avoid air leakage.

The 17 open hole flute has an extra tone hole in comparison with the 16 open hole flute, so the range of the register is definitely enlarged, which also brings convenience for playing any note with an extra bass. In addition, when playing high C, if coupled by bass B, it will be very easy to blow.
