If she can play the clarinet, then she can play flute. All woodwinds are based upon the same principle, which is a little too complicated to explain here. But if she knows her clarinet fingerings, and can blow across an opening (like we all like to blow across a beer bottle), she’d be fine on flute.

I can play a number of instruments, but I love flute.
