The Yamaha YFL-212U is ideal for beginners and can take you to grade 7/8 level. You can use it as your first flute, but you will find it is also suitable as a step up instrument.
It is quite capable of being used in both solo and group work effectively.
This particular model comes with both a straight and curved headjoint. The curved headjoint is ideal for younger players as it reduces the arm-span needed to play by bringing the flute closer to the body, players can then swap to the straight head when ready eliminating the need to purchase another flute at this point.
