Take Your Flute Playing to the Next Level with the Key of E Flute

Our Premiere Native American E flute is tuned to the pentatonic minor scale in the key of E which means the highest and lowest notes on this flute will play the key of E (not including overblow notes). These are large sized flutes measuring 26 inches long (66.04CM). They are larger in diameter than our A, G and F# flutes. Their size makes them a better choice for adults who have previous experience playing flutes or other instruments, or people with large hands. This is a wonderful key for those who are ready to advance their flute playing to a lower key. The key of E is lower than the key of F. It has a deep and soothing voice.
