Low G on the Flute

Written G4. Tap the diagram to hear it.

G4
Beginner note
Written G4 on the treble staff

Left hand and the E-flat key only — the simplest fingering in the low register, and often a beginner's very first note. Because the right hand does not move at all, G is a good place to practise a clean tongued attack without disturbing the embouchure.
