The Nose Flute is an unusual yet fascinating instrument that produces a warm and slightly smoky sound. Made with oiled jackfruit wood from fair trade plantation wood in Vietnam, this flute or whistle is held in front of the nose and mouth. By blowing softly with your nose into the small round hole, the air flows through the labium, and the slightly open mouth-throat area around the bottom hole serves as a resonance and flute body.
Finding the right tones is easy and intuitive, similar to singing or whistling, eliminating the need to learn any complicated finger sequences. From bird's twittering to complex melodies, play anything with the nose flute. Note that the range of tones depends on the individual ability to vary the mouth/jaw resonation zone.
