Kestrel Hawk - high D - Aromatic Cedar

Our Kestrel Flute in the high-tone key of 'D' minor is made from domestic aromatic cedar, a softwood, and sealed with non-toxic oils which give it a warm, resonant and full voice. 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 flutes in the key of 'D' minor. 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. 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. 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.
