Core Types of Indian Flutes
Bansuri (Hindustani): Predominantly used in North Indian classical music, it typically features six finger holes (though some modern versions have seven). It is known for its warm, deep, and mellow tone, ideal for the long, sustained notes and glides characteristic of Hindustani music.
Venu (Carnatic): Used in South Indian Carnatic music, this flute traditionally has eight finger holes. It is generally shorter and thinner-walled than the bansuri, producing a sharper, more penetrating sound suitable for complex, rapid ornamentation.
Fipple Flute: Unlike the professional transverse flutes, this is a vertical, whistle-like flute often used in folk music or for young beginners, as it is easier to produce a sound from immediately.
