The instrument is also a member of the wind ensemble, Woodwind Ensemble and Woodwind Quintet, in which he plays together with Clarinet, Oboe, Fagot and French Horn. This is also characteristic of trios and toWoodwind vartets, although they do not have solid membership, as the quintet Woodwind does.

flutes are the oldest category Woodwind. They were flutes as early as the ninth century BC. The basic design is a tube with a coating into which the player blows and holes for fingers to control the pitch. The modern instrument was developed in 1830 Theobald Boehm and includes its fingering. Flutes and piccolos were originally made of wood, but are now generally metal.
