High spirits Little Hawk 'A' - Poplar Wood

Discover the warm, expressive sound of the Little Hawk 'A' Poplar Wood Flute, a handcrafted five-hole wooden flute tuned to A at 440 Hz. Made from a single piece of Poplar hardwood, this compact flute combines traditional-inspired craftsmanship with an approachable design that makes it suitable for both beginners and experienced musicians.

The Little Hawk is tuned to the Minor Pentatonic Scale, one of the most naturally harmonious and versatile musical scales. With five finger holes and no complicated musical theory required, you can begin creating beautiful melodies intuitively, making this an excellent beginner wooden flute as well as a unique addition to an experienced musician's collection.

At approximately 17 inches (44 cm) long, the Little Hawk is comfortable to hold and allows for manageable breath control, making it particularly accessible for new flute players. Its sound is balanced and expressive, while its A 440 Hz tuning makes it easy to play alongside other traditionally tuned instruments.

The flute is handcrafted from Poplar wood and finished with a Walnut wood block (fetish) secured with a dark brown leather tie, giving each instrument a distinctive natural and traditional character.

Although the flute is in the key of A, its pentatonic fingering also allows it to be played in C major, giving you additional musical possibilities.
