The Bass flute is a special gem. With its velvety, earthy sound

Bass flutes are a wonderful and interesting instrument, with a lower tone than most others in the flute family. The bass flute is most commonly pitched in the key of C. This is one octave below the concert flute. 

The instruments sounding  range  is from C3, one octave below middle C, to C6, two octaves above middle C.  Bass flute  music sounds an octave lower than it is written, which is the typical concert flute range  (C4 to C7). 

All models in the Odyssey range of high quality brass band and orchestral instruments have been meticulously designed down to the finest details by Peter Pollard. It’s hardly surprising that, with over 50 years experience and having listened to the ‘wants’ of countless high profile musicians, this master craftsman is one of the most sought after custom brass and woodwind builders in the world.   

At Odyssey, we recognise the significant contribution that an instrument makes to the willingness of a student to persevere, practice, pursue the process of learning to control and master the instrument, enjoy making music and progress.
