octave keys are so stupid. why would you do that to yourself
#the answer is because flute is the only instrument for which an octave/register key is made COMPLETELY redundant by the way in which the#instrument functions. whereas LITERALLY every other woodwind needs something to facilitate the overblown interval#(aka make higher notes sound less Fucking Gross) because fundamentally the way the flute does octaves is completely not a thing on other#woodwinds. This fucking blows#pun intended.#listen i just dont like that the thumb key doesnt function in a lowkey nonsensical way#like put it back the flute was here first you ALL came from flute (xcept the bassoon the bassoon is weird and doesnt use the boehm system)#but ALL OF THE REST OF YOU BASTARDS. GET THE FUCK BACK HERE AND STOP DOING THINGS IN A WAY THAT IS EASY AND STRAIGHTFORWARD AND SENSICAL#this has been: rorys ''WHAT THE FUCK WHY IS THE FLUTE SO WEIRD'' hour tune in again next time for im sure more of This#ari opinion hour
