The?German fingering, creates a slightly stronger tone than flutes with a tone block and has a very light articulation.
The Octa flute, with its renewed labium without a tone block, is the ideal flute for children from about 8 years old. It offers a relaxed respiration technique ability.?
The Choroi Fingering System uses the left hand small finger as well and has a few advantages over German fingering: The higher notes are much better balanced and intoned.
All the Choroi flutes are characterized by a warm, light, flexible tone. Compared with traditional instruments, the Choroi flutes possess a tone that sounds more like a voice than an instrument.?
This unique tone quality leads to a corresponding style of play. A free out breathing, rather than an active blowing, forms the foundation for the tone. The mouth and lip positions also contribute to the tone formation. The fingers gently touch the specially formed finger holes, which allows half-steps to be achieved naturally by half-covering the holes.
