The Paetzold flute is a somewhat strenuous instrument to play, as it requires a large amount of air to produce sound. For this reason, the average duration of a steady tone varies, depending on the register. Perfectly tuned notes are restricted to the "mezzo forte" dynamic level, with very little possible variations.
