I'm mainly a recorder player but have purchased an old keyed "german flute" and like the sound of this instrument very much. Your advice is helpful, so thank you for the video
You can refine this by moving the jaw back & forward.
This is more precise than rolling the flute.
Just picked up my flute and this video appeared thanks !
Ive recently started playing an Irish flute so this video is appreciated! I've had to adjust my embouchure quite a bit coming from the silver flute. Im loving all the unique tone colors the Irish flute has to offer! Looking forward to learning more! Thanks for the guidance! Also love your shirt! Cheers! 😄
Ahh, I bet it is an interesting change going from silver flute to wood flute! I don't really know anything about silver flutes myself though I've messed about with one a time or two. Good luck with the new flute - and thanks!!
I just took up the flute. You have been so helpful.
Thank you
Excellent advice!
I play a lot of instruments, as of yet the Irish flute. C# has no keys or notes covered and in my opinion it is the most difficult to get some quality in the note. You can correct the pitch but to make that note sound like something is another journey. It doesn't have many overtones. If you skip over it, fast music, nobody with notice, but I'd rather not hang onto that note if the music is slow.
Thank you so much. Your straight-to-the-point lessons, the high quality of your video and audio, and your incredible musicianship make me keep coming back to your videos. You inspire me to be a better player.
Thanks! 🙂✌️🎻😎
Much appreciated buddy! In one video you have improved my embouchure no end!
Ahh, glad to hear it!
Thank you for this excellent tutorial!
Thanks for this! I'll certainly be putting these into my routine.
Almost the same embouchure problems of the one-keyed baroque flute in D.
Great instruction as ever Sean. Thanks 👍🏽
Merci pour ces astuces !
Excellent, thanks.. Especially those attack/landing notes
I'm not at that level yet with the flute but I got the exact same criticism in my choir - singing the first note too loud after taking a breath.
It was at the funeral service of an ex-chorister & we were doing a very difficult piece, so I guess I was trying too hard.
Goes to show that breath control is breath control, in whatever kind of music you're practicing.
Great video, just the advice I needed.
Great lesson 😎🎙🎶✅
So darn helpful, ty
Very useful video
Cool 🌟😎👍
Very instructive. Exactly what I needed at this juncture.
The issue with first notes after taking a breath has been one of the biggest for me....great tips, will be implementing these today!!
GREAT!!! Really helpful, thank you! I guess that many flute players do this, so I'm sure I'm not alone......but I endlessly obsess about my embouchure and get very frustrated that it seems oversensitive and inconsistent! So any and everything you can show and say about embouchure is deeply appreciated!🙏❤️. Lovely flute by the way! Who made it? It has a sound very like my Martin Doyle keyless one.
IMO obsessing over one's embouchure is one of the joys of the instrument - and one of the curses too, of course :) And thank you, that one is made by Windward Flutes in Nova Scotia. I REALLY want one of their fully keyed ones - someday, perhaps!
Thanks for another helpful video. There are lots of videos on the whistle and on the silver flute--not that many that demonstrate the fundamentals for successful wooden flute playing. It helps to see a demo of what you are describing. I agree with "This One," a video on getting into the second octave with good tone; holding and playing so that you avoid tension; how to manage larger intervals (like the opening of the Kerry Polka); so many questions! So keep the videos coming. We appreciate what you do and the way you do it.
Great lesson, one of the things I am having trouble with is leaping/jumping to and from the low D. I have difficulty getting the note to sound cleanly without it disappearing in an explosion of breath as these moves are usually only of an eighth note duration 🤨
You might have micro leaks of air. I had this too or it's just the flute. It's very frustrating.
Change instruments, imho.
@@Kitiwake I have a Terry McGee Mopane flute with a G# key. I honestly doubt the fault is with the instrument, more with the player [me].
Thanks, good stuff! I got a Copley delrin and it plays much easier than the cheaper flutes I've bought but...I can't hit the second octave! What am I doing wrong?
Ooo good question and a point that I should have mentioned - most people start out thinking that the 2nd octave is all about more air, like it is on the whistle. When really it's about more *focused* air - even to the point of there being an exercise that some folks do where they jump the octave and try to use less air for the 2nd. Anyway, keep that in mind but also if the flute simply will not jump the octave at all, there may be an issue with the instrument itself. I've not heard anything like that from Copleys though, so that would be a surprise.
@@whistletutor Thanks, maybe a topic for your next tutorial!
Could I ask . I play the normal flute . But would like to play the Irish flute. I have small hands . I am wondering if it would be possible ?
Maybe you need a flute in G or E, not in D. You need to try it with your hands
Thank you for sharing so much !! Can this flute play Bach? I love the style you are playing and would like to know the right instrument to chose. Your thoughts would be appreciated!
The flute can... not every flutist can.
The Irish flute is descended from 19th century pre-Boehm flutes. Of course, they played classical music. Bach may not have been played - he was rarely performed in the 19th century, but Mozart was certainly played.
There is a guy on UA-cam who plays both Bach and Mozart on the Indian Bansuri bamboo flute. This is pure acrobatics, but he does it!
But the correct flute for playing Bach is a 17-18 century one-key Baroque flute if you like authentic performance, or a modern silver flute if you play with modern accompanement - a grand piano or symphonic orchestra.
@@MsAraAra thank you! I enjoyed reading and learning what you shared! :)
