Master Flute Making Class by Brent Haines of Woodsounds Flutes will be taught in the afternoons during the Flute School. This class is not a woodworking class but rather will focus on the art of true flute making. This means we will spend a great deal of time on:


  • General understanding of the geometries of the flute and why they work
  • What makes a flute one pitch versus another pitch?
  • What do wood density and grain fiber do to a flute?
  • Voicing flutes
  • Tuning flutes
  • Finish shaping your flute
  • Application of different finishes waxes, oils, or polyurethanes and the benefits of each


The flute blank will be a Mid G with a Darkwood mouthpiece and a Spirit Claw Totem.


Class minimum – 5 students; Class Maximum – 10 students. If fewer than 5 students register, the class will be canceled and fees refunded.
