Cross (transverse) flutes

In this episode, I demonstrate cross flutes I have made from bamboo tiki torches and cardboard tubes from aluminum foil rolls.Cross flutes are also called transverse flutes. Fifes are good examples. These flutes consist of hollow tubes with a sealed end and holes drilled into the side. The mouthpiece hole is positioned near the sealed end and the finger holes are located closer to the other end, or the foot of the instrument. Cross flutes are common to many cultures and countries.
