The Flute actually requires a lot of air. Even more than a Tuba! This is because unlike the Clarinet, Saxophone, Oboe, Bassoon and the Brass, we do not have any resistance on our air. The reed or mouthpiece prevent the flow of excess air, and the Flute is open to the air so air is let out quite freely and breath control is needed to be learnt.

How do you play piccolo notes?
You don't just blow, you have to blow across the hole, and get the embouchure right to actually make a note. It may take a long time to get used to. You may find that if you can play the flute, then it is slightly easier to play the piccolo, than a person playing the piccolo for a first instrument! ; ) The piccolo is the same as playing the flute,it's just smaller and harder to hit the keys. I suggest mastering the flute first.

How are piccolo and flute different?
~I know a lot about both instruments because I have been fortunate enough to play both of them. I have played flute for 4 1/2 years and the piccolo for 6 months. Hope these help with your question:Similarities:~They both have the same fingerings even though one is considerably smaller than the other.~They have the same style head joint.Differences:~The flute is three pieces and the piccolo is only 2.~The piccolo is way higher pitched than the flute.~I can not even stick my pinky into the end of a piccolo and I have very small fingers.~You have to have more air support on the piccolo than you have to on the flute. You have to blow harder to get a sound out of a piccolo.Hope this helped you out!! :)
