There are twelve members of the western flute family, smallest first. Piccolo, treble flute, Soprano, Concert, Flute d'amour, Alto, Bass. Contra alto, Contrabass, Subcontrabass, Double contrabass and Hyperbass flutes
Alto flute has a lower pitch than a normal flute.
The flute family primarily consists of three members: the concert flute, the piccolo, and the alto flute. The concert flute is the standard member, typically made of metal and played in a range of orchestral and solo settings. The piccolo is a smaller, higher-pitched version of the flute, while the alto flute is larger and tuned to a lower pitch, offering a richer, mellower sound. Each member has unique characteristics that contribute to their distinct roles in music.
Flutes and Piccolos don't use reeds. Also for E.C., an oboe doesn't use a reed either. :)
There are many variations of the flute...the most common and the ones that most relate the the common "C" flute are the piccolo, alto flute and bass flute. There are glass flutes, bamboo flutes, Irish flutes, etc.
Some examples of flute-like instruments include the piccolo, alto flute, and bass flute. These instruments differ from the traditional flute in terms of their size, pitch range, and timbre. The piccolo is smaller and higher-pitched, while the alto flute is larger and produces a deeper sound. The bass flute is even larger and has a lower pitch than the traditional flute.

The main flute sizes are the piccolo, concert flute, alto flute, and bass flute. The size of the flute affects the pitch and tone of the sound produced. Smaller flutes like the piccolo produce higher pitches and brighter tones, while larger flutes like the bass flute produce lower pitches and richer tones.
