Is the flute a poplular instrument?

Very. It is very popular for both marching and concert bands, as well as many orchestras. I happen to play the flute and love it very much. However, I will say that learning how to first play the flute can be tough, as the mouth positioning is unlike any other instrument (except piccolo). But the flute is a great instrument and if you want to play an instrument that can stand alone or be played in a group, it is a beautiful instrument to learn. Best of luck!

A piccalo is not a percussion instrument, it is a member of the woodwind family. As far as physical description goes a piccalo look much like a miniture flute and is played in the same manner as a flute. In terms of pich the piccalo is easily discribed as high piched with notes that range from the high range of a flute and higher. When put into music a piccalo is heard playing a part similar to that of the flute just in a range in which the flute cannot play. The piece "Stars and Stripes Forever" by John Philip Sousa has a very recognizable piccalo soli section. If you would like to hear an example look up the song on your favorite video website.
