The flute played an integral role in the development of Native American culture. It was used for various purposes including healing, meditation, and even courtship. The Native American Flute is still used as an instrument in many new age music recordings today
The flute is made out of two air chambers. One is located at the top, and then the bottom air chamber where the finger holes are found. Originally, the length of the flute would be determined by various locations of the body, for instance the length from someone’s wrist to elbow would determine the length of their flute. The amount of space between the holes was usually about the width of a human thumb. Many different materials were used to construct the Native American flute, and most were various woods such as redwood, cherry, or walnut, depending on the sound the player wanted it to produce.
