Choroi Quinta Pentatonic Flute, Maple

Choroi is a Swedish instrument manufacturer, known for its string, woodwind, and percussion instruments. Located in Järna, Sweden, Choroi instruments are well-known and beloved to Waldorf (or Steiner) educators and play an intricate role in a Waldorf classroom. Choroi flutes have a characteristic warm, light, flexible tone. Many have noted that the tone of a Choroi flute is more like a voice than an instrument - when compared to traditional instruments.  The unique tone quality that is produced leads to a free and light out-breathing as opposed to active blowing. The Quinta Pentatonic Flute is a relatively new design, made especially for children and groups.  The new design avoids the need for a tone block, giving it a slightly stronger tone than flutes with a tone block.  Not having the tone block keeps things simple and low maintenance.
