Classes of traversa flute in Bogotá, at home and virtual

The traverse flute has a light and agile sound that shines with both the orchestra and jazz, Latin music and Colombian Andean music. Her first challenge is to get a clear sound and blow up onto the mouth, so the first classes are dedicated with patience to breathing, the place of the lips and the monitoring of the air. With that well built base, advanced digitation and repertoire becomes much more natural.

At how old do we start?

From age 8

Orientatively, the naughty flute usually starts at about 8 or 9 years old, because it requires some size of hands, arms that reach the place and capacity to dose air. There are curved heads that shorten the instrument and allow smaller children to hold it with comfort. The teacher will tell you if it's a good choice depending on your child's case. Before that age, the [sweet flute]](/clases/flauta-dulce) or [musical initiation]](/clases/iniciacion-musical) If you are an adult, you can start at any age: patience and constancy weigh more than the moment you start.
