The Pueblo Style Flute is a tribute to the peoples who lived in the Chaco Canyon region, northern New Mexico. The site of the ruins was named by the Pueblo Bonito expedition, where some rim-blown flutes were found in excavations carried out in the last decade of the 19th century.

We produce the Pueblo style flute in three variations: Anazasi, Mojave, and Hopi. The three flutes are vertical rim-blown flutes made of bamboo with 5 or 6 holes that allow easy assembly of the major and minor pentatonic scales. Its mouthpiece is similar to the Japanese Shakuhachi flute, allowing micro-tonal subtleties, harmonic overblowing, and playing the second octave. These flutes are inspired by the ancient flutes of the indigenous peoples of the north.

MODELS AND TUNINGS

The Pueblo flute is produced in 3 variations: Pueblo Anazasi with 6 holes and tuned in Low G (G3), the Hopi Pueblo flute with 5 holes tuned in Low B (B3), and the Mojave flute with 6 holes tuned in Low B (B3).

 

 

BAMBOO

The bamboo selected for these flutes is of high acoustic quality, with internodes and thick walls. The bamboos are shade-dried for 6 months, treated, and sealed to withstand weather and variations in humidity and temperature, as well as protection against fungi. The mouthpiece of the flutes is made from the bamboo itself in the shape of the Shakuhachi mouthpiece.

FINISHES

All flutes receive non-toxic varnish (Indian shellac) and colored protective threads that can be chosen on the flute page. Choose a tuning/model and on the flute page you can choose the colors of the threads. We do not produce in quantity; we create the flute for YOU, with full attention to sound quality.
