The flute has been known in India from very ancient times comparable to the veena of goddess saraswathi, the flute is seen being played by lord Krishna.
The flute is a wind instrument. It is made of wood or metal. It is 67 centimeters (26 ½”) long, with a bore of ¾ “, built in three sections- the head, the body and the foot joint. It is sometimes made in one pieces too. It closed at one end and opened at the other. A few centimeters from the blocked end, there is a blow hole into which the flutist blows air. The body and the foot joint have the note holes (13 atleast) which were manipulated by the flutist.
