An apparatus is worn on a finger of a user while playing the flute. The apparatus comprises a stabilization pad, an inner support pad, and an outer support pad. The stabilization pad is disposed at a first end of the apparatus and is positionable to abut at least one of the finger and a palm of the user. In contrast, the outer support pad is disposed at a second end of the apparatus and is positionable to project outward from the finger of the user. The inner support pad and the outer support pad are operative to at least partially support the flute.
