		Bass flutes are available from a number of makers, including Eva Kingma, Gemeinhardt and Emerson.
		The modern bass flute in C (not to be confused with the Renaissance or Baroque-era "bass flute" pitched in G - the counterpart of the modern alto flute) is usually made with a "J"-shaped head joint, which brings the embouchure hole within reach.
		The bass flute should be renamed "tenor", with the sub-bass in F considered a "baritone" flute.

	Alto and bass flutes
		The modern bass flute in C came into being in the 1920's as an extension of the flute family.
		The nature of both alto and bass flutes, with the larger bore and less penetrating sound, dictates that the music cannot be as technically demanding as that written for the C flute.
		The possibilities of the alto and bass flutes are that they extend the flute range in the lower sounds, and are especially interesting for flute ensembles and flute choirs.

	Dayton C. Miller Flute Collection: Flute Misnomers
		However, unlike the brass band instruments in flat keys which transpose as expected, the E-flat, B-flat, and F flutes of the flute band are actually in D-flat, A-flat, and E-flat respectively, and their parts are therefore transposed as such.
		However, such C flutes were often termed D flutes due to the basic scale centered on the original lowest written note, D. The practice of designating the pitch of the flute and fife one tone higher than the actual key lasted into the twentieth century, especially among wind bands.
		Some of the smaller or youth bands use only that high "B-flat (A-flat)" flute and, in effect, become fife-and-drum corps, although their "fifes" are in fact flutes, which, unlike the fife, are equipped with at least a simple key system (see "Fife vs. Band Flute").

		It is believed that when the Great Krishna himself played the Flute, "The spirits were enchanted, the rivers paused and stopped flowing, the birds halted their flight, flew down and listened to his music with great jealousy, and all the inanimate things on earth and under the sun grew brighter".
		A short time later, Flutes comprised at least two pieces, which were very tightly fitted together, thus allowing the player to tune his instrument by adjusting the length of the whole tube.
		The Bass Clarinet has a much longer tube than that of the regular Clarinet; the top and bottom of the instrument had to be bent so as to make it possible for the player to cope with its length.

		Featuring an agile response, warm beautiful tone, and precise intonation, Yamaha bass flutes have reached a new standard in harmony flute design.
		Yamaha's unique expertise with the various alloys used in brass instruments has led to the discovery that gold-brass (brass with a higher than usual copper content) is the perfect material for optimum tone, weight, and playability.
		The gold-brass gives a rich, colorful sound, and the flute is much more comfortable to hold and play than traditional bass flutes, being considerably lighter.
