Soprano Flute
This distinctive sounding instrument is rarely found at present. A few American publications for flute choir currently include a part for an Eb (soprano) flute, an instrument pitched a minor third higher than the standard C flute. In these publications, an alternative part is provided either for the C Flute or for the piccolo.
