Fingering Chart for Eight-Key Simple-System Flute. Filled circles indicate closed finger holes, open circles indicate
open finger holes, half-filled circles indicate partially covered finger holes and diamonds indicate the use of keys.
Large circles show the primary, most-used notes of the flute, small circles the lesser-used notes or fingerings. Note
that some notes have more than one fingering. Try differing fingerings on your flute and find out what works best
for you. You may also find workable fingerings for your flute that do not appear in this chart.
