Description
The history of modern concert flute goes back to the stone age, but many significant changes in the construction of the flute happened from the 11th century till 1830, when the flutist from Munich Orchestra, Theobald Boehm developed a comprehensive construction concept of modern flutes.
The modern orchestra or concert flute features the Boehm key mechanism and possesses either open or closed keys. On models with closed keys, all the keys have cups fitted with pads of felt and gut. These pads are the instrument’s Achilles’ heel; they are extremely sensitive to changes in temperature and dryness and are quick to shrink, which means they no longer make the tone holes entirely airtight.
The open-keyed flute is also known as the French model or ring keyed flute. Five of the keys on this flute are perforated. The corresponding tone holes are therefore not covered by cups but by the flutist’s fingertips, which enables more effective control of timbre. Many flutists prefer to perform contemporary works on the open flute because it is better suited.
