"Flautina is a two-octave flute played like an English Concertina.
It is very easy to play, extremely responsive, and sounds very authentic.
The sounds are recorded from my personal 1857 Metzler wooden flute.
The chromatic range is from D4 to C#6.
Touch the '?' icon to show the names of the notes on the buttons.
Touch the 'i' icon to bring up the settings page. You can also visit the app support website by touching the Tradlessons logo on this page.
You can play along with the music on your iPhone/iPod Touch by starting the track using the iPod app, then launching Flautina.
When Charles Wheatsone designed the English concertina, he set it up to match sheet music, the right side is the notes between the lines and the left side is the notes on the lines.
Because English Concertinas play the same note both on a push or a pull of the bellows, it is a very easy instrument to play on the iPhone or iPod Touch.
You simply touch the buttons on the screen to play the notes. The spacing is exactly the same as the real instrument.
To play, hold the iPhone or iPod Touch between your thumb and little fingers of both hands, exactly like a real English Concertina, and press the buttons with your index and middle fingers. Scales alternate between the fingers of the right hand. Notes are higher in pitch as you move from the outside to the middle of the screen.
Flautina runs on the iPhone and iPod Touch."
