What Your Flute Says About You (Low Flute Edition)

Low flutes are big, bold, and impossible to ignore! If you’ve ever wondered what your instrument choice says about your personality, we’ve got you covered.

This one’s for the alto, bass, and contrabass crew. Let’s break it down:

Alto Flute

You’re chill but with a twist.

You’re the kind of flutist who brings calm, mellow vibes to the ensemble... and then surprises everyone with your low-register shimmer. You’re probably into yoga, ambient playlists, and obscure chamber music. People look to you for balance, and for that one note no one else can reach.

You’ve definitely said, “Honestly, I just love the color of the alto.”

Bass Flute

You like to stand out without saying a word.

You’ve got a mysterious aura, a strong tone, and maybe a secret talent for bass lines and baked goods. You’re not flashy, but you make an impression. You’ve accepted the fact that every rehearsal includes at least one person asking, “Wait… is that a bass flute?!”

You’ve been caught dramatically raising your eyebrows after playing a solo.

Contrabass Flute

You’re the main character.

If you play contrabass flute, you probably own a rolling case, a commanding stage presence, and at least one custom piece of furniture to store your flute. You like your music low, loud, and a little theatrical. You’re not here to blend in, you’re here to shake the room (literally).

You’ve named your contrabass. It probably has its own Instagram. Tag it below.

Bonus: You Own Multiple Low Flutes

You are the ensemble’s backbone and possibly a collector.

You coordinate outfits with your flutes. You’ve searched for hours to find a stand tall enough to hold your instruments during rehearsal. You didn’t choose the low flute life; the low flute life chose you.
