The wind tunnel is the area in the head of the instrument where the blowing air is formed into a thin sheet of air. This air leaf is the nucleus of the sound of a flute. In interaction with the labium, the air leaf is the source of the vibration that fundamentally generates the flute tone. The shape of the wind tunnel is therefore one of the defining principles for the sound and the response of the instrument.
The model 117-152U by Paetzold by Kunath has a wind tunnel which is straight and conical.Fingering | Pentatonisch |
