Developing, after a break of 30!! Years... I stopped because of frustration, but continued dreaming of playing beautifully, but I always thought I was just too bad. Now, a few weeks ago, bought me a flûte, somewhere I got confident to get over my old frustration. So now I'm unlearning and learning the good way. Thank you Tatiana, your videos are much more helpful than what I've 'learned' 30 years ago. I'm ready now to go through, to get over my feelings of being unable 💓 it's amazing!!! I already sound better than ever 🥰
Intermediate. Been back to flute 4 weeks ago, after a 30 years leave. Played the flute 5 years in high school. I practice 1 hour per day. Also, been playing the clarinet 4 years (still playing).
Scale practice is like taking vitamins ~~ it really pays off. I had a teacher in grade 9 who introduced me to playing extended scales. In a year my level increased to show-off. I really wish I still had the breath capacity I did then. I could play a 3 octave chromatic scale in one breath. Super fast and even. I am forever grateful tho, to my first private teacher (for my second year of playing) who had me memorize a new major scale each week. I cooperated an when 4 years later I learned extended scales tonic up to high C or C# then down to ditto, back up to the tonic, it was easy. She also taught me to play the scales with different articulation patterns, which made practicing scales much more interesting and useful. Music is largely made from scales and arpeggios~ the runs usually don’t begin or end on the tonic. When I got to the Cleveland Institute of Music, Mr Sharp taught me to analyze runs before I sight read ~ one of the best things I learned from him. This works well for most baroque, classical, and baroque period repertoire. Tchaikovsky’s music is scalar, but not major or minor. Greek modes?? Just have to woodshed. I’m still playing as much as I can at 69.
Scales are really good, I use to couldn’t play certain 2nd octave notes easily, but since I learned most of my scales and tried to perfect them, I find it a lot easier to play those notes. Not to mention chromatic is also key
After fifty five years I ‘m a jazz flute player who can blow! I could be a show off but I find that to be in bad taste. What I work on is making my approach totally and uniquely mine. I achieve this by adding grace (blues) notes, playing with an octave above attack on the note, finding ways of connecting notes with chromatic slurs and adding synthesizer like chiffs to notes.
After playing the flute for 3 days now I consider myself developing... I am a fast learner with three years of experience in recorder, to about grade 8, also three years of experience with guitar which I do now teach. Have been playing organ for ten years now and have had plenty of lessons and still have organ lessons. For the other instruments it's with the help of a few UA-cam videos and info I found online (primarily a fingering chart). I'm excited to see how fast I'll grow on the flute, being a multi-instrumentalist and experienced with wind instruments I guess I'm in for a fast route to amateur flute as well!
You must be practicing a lot! One of the reasons student books go so slowly at first is that students are learning to read notes, memorizing fingerings (so many of which are the same as recorder), learning to articulate, as well as the breathing. Because you’ve learned how to “learn” instruments, you’re applying all of those strategies you figured out on your own, to learning the flute. IMO try out some lessons with a flutist so you can have further guidance re: flute specific stuff and repertoire.
I used to sit with my back against the chair and the flute on my shoulder, PLUS I blew really hard (if you know you know 😭) but I'd say I'm between Developing and Intermediate.. Also I have a concert tommorow 😅
Ha! I love how after “Virtuoso” (i.e. show off) is “Show Off” :D Based on this, I’m towards the bottom end of “advanced” but I don’t feel like that term describes where I am… so now I’m confused.
When I was playing-virtuoso but still had a long way to go and would actually only consider what you showed as "virtuoso" as being "advanced". I stopped for ten (long story) years (had stopped for eight years at some point before that too, again long story). I'm 54 now and am just going to have to go into salvage mode if I'm going to play again. I'm miserable without it.
I’m in the beginner stage but try to practice my scales throughout the week as much as I can it’s get frustrating at times but I know I will be able to do it by working it on constantly
QUESTION: (1st) Just got a bamboo flute (or recorder?; it’s vertical) in the key of E minor. All I can do is a little bit inconsistent vibrato, whatever that gurgling technique is called, that thing where you move your finger up and down rapidly to play few notes quickly. I haven’t even figured out what holes to cover to play each note and my finger movements are pretty stiff. Also, it might be because it’s $10 but sometimes while I’m playing different notes it just loses it and goes really sharp. Is that because of inconsistent breathing for specific notes or certain holes getting covered/uncovered or hot air getting trapped or what? I noticed that when I uncover certain holes they play the same sound as if there are 2 or more ways to play each note or something. This mainly happens with the top 3 holes which are the same size while the second from bottom is smaller and the other two are just farther down. (2nd) Is there a video or a picture that maps out or shows what holes to cover for each note? Also is there a good starting video to help with these issues so I can improve and/or learn what I’m doing wrong and what is just the $10 instrument’s fault?
I personally didn’t buy this instrument. My father bought it for me, in fact. I asked the vendor multiple times which instrument would be good to get, what the sound difference is with all of them, and how long the instrument will serve my needs before upgrading.
I’m about intermediate- I’ve been playing since the summer in between 5th and 6th grade and I’m in 8th grade now, I have band lessons and private lessons, and I’ve had years of piano experience before playing it
Well, according to this video I am a show off virtuoso with straightforward scales like F! However, give me scales in thirds or G# minor and I’m instantly back down to intermediate!!
Err uuhhhh I was trying out the flute (I’ve never played any instrument before) today at my trial and I instantly knew what to do and figured out my breathing almost perfectly since the flute I was using wasn’t mine I couldnt use the keys but I’m looking forward to start on 9/30!
Used to be advanced…maybe at developing/ intermediate now? It has been nearly 20 years 😂 Need to get my flute serviced & work my way back to advanced again 🎉
😂 I got a Bundy flute at a thrift shop for 20 bucks, it has a broken/stuck lever.. but I can't even get a solid note out of it.. is it the same as blowing into a bottle for the pitch/tone? I don't know how to read music, but I play a few instruments... Trying out more. 😂
I am a new adult learner, just got a Nuvo 2.0. Things going well. I got the Nuvo because I hope my 7 year old will play it in a few years. I got her at toot to learn on first. ❤️
Wao! I've been in the development stage for ever! I'm stuck! I love the flute sound and it's such a cool instrument but I don't think I have it in me to conquer the higher levels. I'm strugling with every aspect of flute playing 😢 I'm self-taught with help from YT.
Oh dear! What have you been working on? Do you have the right resources for your level? And have you been able to do some scales and technical exercises that are suited to your level?This is so so so important. Start a few steps back with the right resources and see if you can become unstuck.
@@TheFlutePractice Thanks for the reply! I recently joined a NEW community band but now I see it was a big mistake. I tried to quit but they begged me to come back because they need people. I went back because I thought it would help me connect with others and get some support but that's not happening so I will eventually leave and go back to my solo practice. I will follow your advice. Thank you!
My mom tried to teach me flute, I could never get the hang of it. But now that she's passed, I want to try again to learn... She also did piccolo. Which I keep seeing around is really, REALLY hard.
Nice play and I do believe that they do that when they're in beginner I seen a kid do that before while playing the flute it's like they were scared of doing scales😂😂❤
I’m in the advanced stage but sometimes I can attempt the other ones 😂😂 I haven’t played for 3 years since out of college but I wanna get back into it and that’s where I’m starting again, hopefully only better from there 🤞🏾🤞🏾
I’m somewhat in between novice and intermediate. My second octave notes are clearer but i’m struggling with the breath work. I suppose its all practice though!
i mean the last three are just kinda depending on my mood- sometimes i wanna play staccato fast, sometimes i wanna play slow and keep my breath steady, yk whatever sorry if i couldnt explain it better lol, english isnt my first language
Beginner is inaccurate. You forgot the lifting of all the fingers that aren’t pressing notes and constantly looking back at your hands to make sure you’re playing it right
I happen (after 4 years of lessons and practice) to be between Intermediate and Advanced, leaning slightly towards Advanced (very humble here guys)… I am a HS sophomore.
On my instrument (Clarinet) I can play a two octave scale pretty fast. But it’s much easier on a clarinet than flute fingering wise. It’s more of being able to get the notes out.
Really? I play the flute for 7 years and I started to play the clarinet this year and I feel like it is harder to make the sound than it was on the flute when I started. But maybe I just don't remember xd.
I was between advanced and virtuoso but I did have to take a break for a few years because my asthma got really bad. I’m at 23 now and I think I’m still the same with my playing but slightly less for my sheet reading skills! I’m working on trying to get back to where I was before tho so I can do even better ❤
I am 2nd year in. I can currently playBb,Ab,Eb,F, and G scales(both octaves and I can play them all in quarter eighth). I think I'm doing pretty good so I would say just below intermediate. Im not the best at playing for long periods of time without air but am getting better and can hold about 8-10 beats but with scales I can hold the entire time for one octave and breathe twice for 2 octave.
seven months ago I was intermediate that’s what I commented, and now I can say confidently I’m advanced🎉 guys I promise if you practice consistently and work hard you can get better
I think I’m advanced but I only started again recently after barely playing for the past 3 years because of college. But I have a lot of technical work to do to get to the next level as my teacher was never big on scales and exercises.
After 2 years (now beginning my 3rd) of practice we have.. pretty advanced books in certain grades and we have two octave scales to learn, I can play the full scale (with bonking one or two notes) pretty well and consider myself to be in the middle of a novice and an intermediate

I'm also an intermediate flute player, I've been playing the flute for 5 years.
I am in Show off stage, actually Show off Pro Max Ultra Lite Stage 🤣
😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂 best comment!
Same. To the point of boredom. Took up bagpipes and keyless Irish Flute just for the challenge that Boehm flute didn't give me.
at this point I'm somewhere between intermediate and advanced which I'm proud of myself for achieving in a year (I learned on my own)

3 weeks into my life of Fluting, I'd say 'developing' according to your examples.
Win!

Beautiful flute sound to listen. Like👍
I’ve been playing for 7years and yet somehow I feel like my tone sounds closer to novice than anything else😅
Same here.
Definitely Show-off ... or "the one that starts nervously playing chromatic scales before a concert to the utter annoyance of her ensemble".
I used to sit with my back against the chair and the flute on my shoulder, PLUS I blew really hard (if you know you know 😭) but I'd say I'm between Developing and Intermediate.. Also I have a concert tommorow 😅
What do you mean by blowing really hard? is to get out normal notes or getting out high notes in general
Ive been playing flute for six years and am definitely starting to lean towards the virtuoso level.
Ha! I love how after “Virtuoso” (i.e. show off) is “Show Off” :D

After 20 years, we're at advanced, and that's where we're gonna stay.

Depends on a few factors, mostly fingering speed (that's the proper word?)
Show off is very similar to the highest bands warm up. I’m not in it so I’m not sure what note speed it is.
