I was just doing some improvising on #fujara, so figured why not share some of its wonderful #music. And yes, there's a distinct possibility one of these great #flutes, the national #instrument of #Slovakia 🇸🇰 is taller than you. They are often between 180-200cm (from just under 6ft to 6ft 6), though there are smaller models too. The smallest I've come across was a travel model in F and about a metre long (around 3ft 3), which is still longer than most flutes. Funny though. It's a shepherd #flute, sometimes played while walking up to the mountain pastures, so size didn't seem to be an issue before.
The fujara only has 3 finger holes, yet because of using various levels of overblowing, they have a range of over 3 octaves, though the middle 2 are the most useful musically-speaking. Due to using more overblowing, it’s often referred to as a bass overtone flute. I don't agree with this classification, because in that case most flutes will be overtone flutes too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySDNqiZyVqU
