Art/Literary - Music / March flute
Danish term or phrase: March flute/marchfløjte
Does anybody know what the flute in the link below is called in English? I have tried to find out by myself but so far I have had no luck. I would really appreciate if somebody could help me with this. Thank you.

Er der nogen, der ved, hvad en marchfløjte kaldes på engelsk? Jeg har prøvet det bedste, jeg kunne, at finde ud af det selv, men uden held. Det ville være til stor hjælp, hvis nogen ved det. Den kan ses i nedenstående link. På forhånd tak.

If you compare images of fifes with the instruments you are looking for, you will see they are a good match: https://www.google.ie/search?rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENIE280&q="fife"&um...
