The present invention concerns the body structure of a wind instrument and a procedure for making a wind instrument body presenting said structure. The body of a wind instrument, such as a flute, consists of an elongated tube composed of one or several parts (1), in said tube apertures (2) openable and closable with separate keys as required by playing, are made. As taught by the invention, the tube or its parts are made of plastic material, with which one or several fibre courses (4, 5) are combined for reinforcement. An appropriate plastic material is epoxy plastic, and appropriate fibres are e.g. carbon fibres. With these is obtained a body construction which has a high rigidity and low mass and which produces sound with minimal blowing energy. |
