Koncovkas are overtone flutes, meaning there are no finger holes and melodies are created by varying your blown air pressure and creating the natural harmonics of the instrument. These are made in Slovakia from elder wood and polished with shellac.

In key of A:
When playing, you can open and close the bottom end to achieve around 16 different tones, or even more if you half-cover the end. Koncovkas offer a unique tonal range and extraordinary harmonic capabilities. By manipulating fingerings and controlling your breath, you can create mesmerizing overtones and evoke hauntingly beautiful melodies. The versatility of these flutes allows you to explore your musical creativity and express a wide range of emotions through their enchanting sounds.
Experience the allure of Slovakian music and explore the captivating sounds of koncovkas. These authentic overtone flutes are more than just instruments; they are a direct link to the rich heritage and tradition of Slovakia. Let the koncovka enchant your senses and elevate your musical expressions to new heights.
Approximate Lengths:
Key of E: 20.5 inches

This was my first ever Hardanger, so I basically wanted a "Squier" version of a Hardanger: an entry level Hardanger to learn on that was new and solid but wouldn't break the bank. This has been pretty much perfect and just what I wanted.I love playing it.
Beautiful amazing instrument! Easy and fun to play! Highly recommended! Great customer service and fast shipping!!
Jackie arrived, nicely packed and in rapid order... much lighter than I expected, thank goodness as the instrument is attached to the player by their thumbs (and mine are kind of old).
I never thought that it would be so challenging for me to learn play ... so different from anything I've tried before... I can feel the neurons in my brain sparking and protesting. Actually, it feels good to build new pathways. The cat is none too pleased with my new endeavor. However, Jackie is a beautiful instrument, well made and of good quality. I'm sure, in time, we'll become the best of friends.
Thanks to all at Lark in the Morning for making my experience so pleasant and trouble free. <3
The external Twin Spot works great on my Irish Bouzouki. I've scotched taped the pickup heads and wires it in place for easy adjustment, and the pick up sensitivity is very good. I'm running it through my guitar DI box for increased sensitivity and tone control.
I think that every household should have a buffalo horn. We are now the proud owners of a fine horn which we obtained from Lark in the morning. It will be handy for calling in the children from play, and signaling to the neighbors across the river.
