Ezi-Quenacho, PVC 'Andean' Flute in D, Handcrafted

The Ezi-Quenacho handcrafted PVC flute was inspired by the traditional Andean
end-blown flutes widely known throughout South America. The traditional
quenacho can be frustrating to learn, because of the difficulty of blowing the
end notch accurately and consistently. Hence the Ezi-Quenacho! It is cross
between a quenacho and a penny whistle. It has a thumb hole like a quenacho,
which helps to get the higher notes more in tune and to get at least some notes
of the third octave. My Ezi-Quenacho has a traditional styled foot with a
stopped down diameter. It is also now fitted with a transport joint that also
acts as a fine tuning slide.

NB, This is a big flute and is not recommended for beginners. However, with
the use of the 'pipers grip' the Ezi-Quenacho can be played even if you have
relatively small hands.

The Ezi-Quenacho is in the traditional key of D major (D = 293.7Hz) and has an
easily playable range of two octaves. The fingerings for notes of the third
octave are included in the instruction sheet, but I do not guarantee you will
be able to play all them. You can hear a demo of the Ezi-Quenacho on SoundCloud
