I recently received a request to consider making a 6-hole version of my 4-hole Mojave tuning flute. After determining the scale that a 6-hole flute would take, I have come up with a beautiful-sounding instrument that plays a natural B-minor scale. For those of you unfamiliar with the scale, it has the following notes, starting on the B next to middle C on the piano: B, C#, D, E, F#, G, A, B. The flute is fully playable in 2 octaves and the natural minor scale is one of those "can't miss" scales... there's no "wrong note" and no end to the fun you can have improvising with it. Here's a picture of the first two styles in prototype:
Let me know if you are interested, the pricing is like my regular Anasazi Dream flute in A.
