 The Quenacho is a huge Quena in D major.  The natural bamboo from our grove has a natural bow or curve.  Due to the bigger bore of the bamboo the holes are wider and further apart thus recommended best fit a bigger hand with wider fingers. I am offering a concert tuned D Quenacho that you can play with others and use to record. The deep and rich  Quenacho will play in D major, Em G and Bm.   HOW TO PLAY: This is an end blown flute made with a hot iron that burns a notch at the top. When a fine jet of air from a relaxed grin crosses it, there is sound and then adventure. Lesson: At first just hold the flute without covering the holes. Lift it upward pressing against a soft lower lip and tilt it or pivot it while you press up against the lip to find the sweet spot where the air will spit to make sound. This is a D major scale. The traditional bottom note for the Quenacho is D, when all the fingers are down.  So all closed is D, E, F#, G, A, B, C# all top holes open, then the back hole
