A small flute is a type of woodwind instrument that produces a high-pitched sound. The term can refer to several different instruments, including the PICCOLO (7 letters), fife (4 letters), ALTO (4 letters), TOOTLE (6 letters), EUTERPE (7 letters), fifed (5 letters), and OBOE (4 letters). The PICCOLO is the smallest and highest-pitched member of the flute family, while the fife is a small, high-pitched flute with six finger holes. The ALTO flute is a larger version of the PICCOLO, and the TOOTLE is a small flute with a conical bore. The EUTERPE is a type of flute from ancient Greece, and the fifed is a type of flute from Scotland. Finally, the OBOE is a double-reed woodwind instrument that is similar to the flute but produces a more mellow sound.
