Yamaha YPC-32 Piccoloflöte

I've had this piccolo now for 2 1/3 years and must say it served its purpose well as a beginner model and further up the grades. I played it nearly 2 - 3 hours virtually every single day since I bought it.

By the way, did you know the piccolo flute (in general) is easier to play than the transverse flute and even the recorder. It also requires much less embroucher-breath control than the transverse flute.
And far as finger technique-dexterity ability is needed, it outclasses both the transverse flute and the recorder. Compared to the recorder the side-way outlay of the key work of the piccolo is much easier and faster to learn than the straight up-down tone holes of the recorder.
'The piccolo flute is hard to learn' is most probably a culturally-traditional conditioned myth. Just as the myth 'the guitar is easy to play'. How this arose and is reproduced I don't
know.
Experiment with it, and would like to become musical non-conformist.
