1. vertical flute

   A vertical flute, also known as a "transverse" flute, "side-blown" flute or "cross flute," is a type of flute that is held horizontally or sideways when played. The player blows across a hole in the side of the instrument, producing sound from the vibration of the air column inside. This differentiates it from the recorder or the traditional flute, which are blown directly from the end and held vertically. The modern orchestral flute and the piccolo are examples of vertical flutes.

1. Vertical flute

   The vertical flute is either a rim-blown flute, a tubular duct flute, with tapered bore or a transversely blown flute, Giorgi Flute, designed to be played in an upright position. The vertical flute is contrasted with the "cross flute" and "globular flute", and in stricter usage may refer only to the first category above. Rim-blown vertical flutes include the Jiahu flute, the xiao, the danso, the kaval, the ney, the quena, and the shakuhachi. The most familiar ducted vertical flutes are the recorder, tin whistle, and tabor pipe. One historical variety has a slightly tapered bore with 6 tone holes on the top side. A dorsal thumb hole is absent. It sometimes has a small foot section with a single key. The range is a little more than two octaves and the common keynote is "D" major. The instrument is often mistaken for a Recorder with keynote C, but. like the tin whistle and tabor pipe, relies on overblowing to change registers instead of pinching open a thumbhole, recorder style, to "cancel" the fundamental harmonic. An unusual case of a transversely blown but vertically held flute is a special variation of the standard flute, or, more specifically, the Western concert flute, designed to be played in an upright position. This version uses a standard cross-blown flute head joint bent in a "?" question mark shape. It can also be modified for one-handed players for people with disabilities.
