Katia de Peyer $ 96.96
Description Our EarthTone 432 Hz flute in the key of ‘A’ minor is handcrafted in southern Arizona from a single piece of Aromatic Cedar. Aromatic Cedar is a softwood, which give the flute a warm, full tonal quality. For over 30-years we have been crafting flutes from single pieces of Aromatic Cedar and in the process we have become adept at choosing planks with natural characteristics to turn into incredible sounding flutes. Aromatic Cedar has a range of colors from ginger-orange to burgundy-red, it can also showcase sapwood which is yellow colored wood found in Aromatic Cedar. The key of ‘A’ is an ideal flute for learning to play the flute. It has a soothing mid-tone musical voice, its size and length (19 in / 48 cm) make it an instrument that is highly accessible for most hand sizes. The flute is tuned in the key of “A” minor and can also be played in the relative major diatonic scale in the key of “C”. Every flute we make is unique piece of functional art. When you choose one of our Aromatic Cedar flutes we guarantee is high-quality sound, its flawless craftmanship, and its one-of-a-kind features created by nature.   Listen to the High Spirits Flutes – Earthtone 432 Hz – A – Aromatic Cedar   About 432 Hz Tuning Frequency In the world of music there has been a revival of tuning instruments to lower frequencies of sound vibration. Until recently, most musical instruments have been tuned so that the “A” note (of the middle octave on a piano) is tuned to 440Hz (Hz = cycles per second). This is known as Concert Pitch and was established as a standard at the beginning of the 20th century. Our EarthTone wooden flutes use a 432 Hz frequency for the “A” note and all other notes are aligned accordingly. When played alongside flutes that are tuned to the frequency of 440 Hz, the 432 Hz tonal difference is very subtle. The 8Hz of tonal difference are seemingly slight in degree but can be perceptibly different when experiencing the feeling of the music we hear. Much like the subtle inflection of the human voice that can project a subtle variation in feelings, an instrument using a slight change in frequency can alter the feeling quality of the music being played. This flute features Rainbow Moonstone inlaid cabochons, a fetish symbolizing the circle of life, and it is engraved with a geometric pattern representing the 432Hz frequency. This is a six hole flute. We automatically include a leather hole cover with this flute, which can be used on the third hole from the top of the flute, as seen in the product’s images. Covering the third hole from the top makes the flute easier to learn to play. The leather hole cover can easily be untied and removed, giving the flute player the option of playing the instrument as either a five hole flute or a six hole flute. The term “good vibes” has been used to describe a positive experience. It is slang for good vibrations or feelings. Vibrations have a great influence on us and it can be said that all aspects of this physical world are filled with vibrations. On a daily basis, vibrations are not easily seen but rather felt. When listening to music, a dialog or just normal conversation the intensity or calmness of the sound vibration has an effect on what we perceive or feel. Aggressive music can agitate us, a calm voice can sooth us. These are all aspects of sound vibration and they can be measured as well as visualized. An instrument known as a CymaScope can project the physical geometric patterns of any specific vibration. By connecting the instrument to a vessel of liquid or a solid medium such as sand on a plate, the vibration of a specific frequency will create consistent unique geometric shapes. Internet searches for “CymaScope 432Hz” will give many options to see the instrument creating the various patterns. The claims and potential benefits cannot all be scientifically proven. We suggest letting your personal experience be the deciding factor in the choice of tunings. This flute is 19 inches (48 cm) long

About the Author

About the Author

Katia de Peyer’s first book Dancing with MySelf, Sensuous Exercises for Body, Mind and Spirit (Nucleus Publications, 1991; La Source Press, 2026) introduced her method of inner-centering through movement, hailed by Diane von Furstenberg as a whole new attitude about exercising. Her second book Enjoy Your Healing Power (La Source Press, 2025) is an intuitive, helpful guide for developing our healing power.  A ballet dancer born in Paris who lived in Spain to further her studies in flamenco, Katia moved to New York in the late sixties to start a successful career as a personal trainer. There she met the virtuoso clarinettist Gervase de Peyer in 1976.  She and Gervase married in 1980 and lived for two decades in the US and then in the UK until Gervase’s death in 2017.  Katia continues her work as a writer and healer in London and New York.
