Toot

@alexhall I'm a sax player, but modern saxophones and flutes both use what is called the "Boehm" system for fingering. All the keys down results in the lowest note, all the keys open is the highest note. There is usually a register key on the back, when it is pushed, your notes will sound an octave higher. As you open keys moving from the bottom of the flute towards the mouthpiece, you will move up the scale. Not sure of the details for accidentals on the flute, but in general it is good to start by training your breath and playing longer tones. Get a metronome or metronome and pitch app. Spend some time every day and try not to get frustrated.
