Double contrabass flute - The double contrabass flute (sometimes also called octobass flute or subcontrabass flute) is the largest and lowest pitched flute in the world. It is pitched three octaves below the concert flute (two octaves below the bass flute, and one octave below the contrabass flute).

Bass Flute - The Bass Flute is another member of the Flute family. The Bass Flute is like the regular flute in most ways except its range is one octave lower than that of the regular flute.

Contra-alto flute - The contra-alto flute (also called subcontrabass flute in G or subcontrabass flute) is one of the largest instruments in the flute family.

Willow flute - The willow flute, also known as sallow flute or overtone flute (Norwegian seljefløyte, Swedish sälgflöjt), is a Scandinavian folk flute, or whistle, consisting of a simple tube with a transverse fipple mouthpiece and no finger holes. The mouthpiece is typically constructed by inserting a grooved plug into one end of the tube, and cutting an edged opening in the tube a short distance away from the plug.
