{"product_id":"folk-flren-re-nickel-l-unite-129655","title":"Flren - D Nickel - Unit","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA \"folk\" version designed for sessions since 1970\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1970, Generation flageolets have evolved in this \u003cstrong\u003efolk\u003c\/strong\u003e version to better integrate into instrumental sessions and traditional repertoires. The \u003cstrong\u003eD key\u003c\/strong\u003e is central to folk practices: it is the reference tuning for many airs, reels, jigs, and popular melodies, with a playing style easily shared among musicians. Made in \u003cstrong\u003eEngland\u003c\/strong\u003e, this model is aimed at those seeking an accessible, characterful instrument that is immediately recognizable within an ensemble.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFor whom, and for which styles?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Generation Folk D flageolet is perfectly suited for \u003cstrong\u003ebeginners\u003c\/strong\u003e who want an easy-to-handle instrument, as well as \u003cstrong\u003eintermediate\u003c\/strong\u003e musicians looking for a \"session\" whistle with a clear character. It is particularly comfortable in \u003cstrong\u003etraditional music\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003efolk\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eCeltic\u003c\/strong\u003e, dance repertoire, and melodic accompaniment in groups. Its direct operation allows working on fundamentals: breath stability, clean attacks, ornaments, and rhythmic precision.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSound, response, and design: a clear and confident character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for folk playing, this flageolet aims for a \u003cstrong\u003equick\u003c\/strong\u003e and clear response: the note starts fast, which helps to chain typical phrasing and articulations of traditional music. The \u003cstrong\u003eD key\u003c\/strong\u003e promotes a natural brightness, with a clear timbre that easily sits above accompaniment. The \u003cstrong\u003enickel\u003c\/strong\u003e body provides a sense of rigidity and a sharp attack, appreciated when \"holding\" a melodic line in sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs it is \u003cstrong\u003enon-tunable\u003c\/strong\u003e, the instrument focuses on simplicity: no adjustments to manage, the goal is to play immediately. In return, intonation will depend more on your breath control and embouchure angle, making it an excellent tool for developing stable technique. Aesthetically, the \u003cstrong\u003eblue color\u003c\/strong\u003e adds a visible and easily identifiable touch in a case or on a music stand.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eRecommended compatible accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo protect and maintain your flageolet, a \u003cstrong\u003esoft cloth\u003c\/strong\u003e (microfiber) is ideal for wiping moisture after playing and preserving the nickel body's appearance. A \u003cstrong\u003estorage case\u003c\/strong\u003e adapted to the \"whistle\" format is also recommended to avoid shocks during transport, especially if you regularly play in rehearsals or sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eharmonic\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eBlue\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eNickel\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eGeneration\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of manufacture\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEngland\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVersion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eFolk\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:7;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eD\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvolution of the folk version\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003esince 1970\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:4;--wb-r:8;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTunable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54334044700947,"sku":"129655","price":11.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/48343418567e70118ae4d4088c67223fb1681459_VTR_FLREN.png?v=1789430984","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/folk-flren-d-nickel-unit-129655","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
