Folk Flsoln - G Nickel - Unit

A "folk" flageolet rooted in the Generation tradition

Since 1970, Generation flageolets have evolved in this "folk" version to better adapt to instrumental sessions of traditional and folk music. Made in England, this model fits the Generation spirit: offering an accessible instrument, immediately functional, and tailored for group playing where a quick response and spontaneous musicality are paramount.

Within the range, this "folk" variant is designed to accompany traditional repertoire with a simple, coherent, and robust instrument that naturally finds its place alongside other light wind instruments (strings, accordions, percussion) during jams and acoustic gatherings.

For which musicians and styles?

This Generation flageolet in G is aimed both at beginners who want an immediate instrument and at intermediate players looking for a complementary key to expand their palette. Its "plug and play" approach (non-tunable model) suits those who prioritize simplicity and playing stability.

Regarding repertoire, it is naturally comfortable in traditional music, folk, dance music, Celtic repertoires, and melodic accompaniments in sessions. The key of G brings a different color and can be very inspiring to vary fingerings, registers, and responses within the ensemble.

Sound, response, and design: a clear and bright instrument

With its nickel body, this flageolet offers a generally clear and well-projected sound, appreciated for carrying in an acoustic context. The response aims for efficiency: sharp attacks, quick response, and a direct playing feel, useful for ornaments and articulations typical of traditional music.

The choice of a non-tunable model favors a hassle-free handling: you play, listen, and adjust with your breath and embouchure. This philosophy is ideal for improving breath stability, intonation, and homogeneity across registers. The blue color provides simple visual identification and a touch of personality without distracting the instrument from its purpose: making music, anywhere.
