Thanks Jonny for the tips, especially the last one. Just made my first drone flute and enjoying it! Blessings
You made one? Very cool!
@oneworldfamily yes, I had the blessings to find a nice craftsman on my vacation in Central America. Now I cannot stop it but playing it. Kinda have a life of its own :) happy fluting!
That's really wonderful! @@yanncourtel8538
Great video Jonny, thanks! I have a couple drone flutes that I purchased from High Spirits Flutes a few years ago, and I really like them. I'm also in the process of ordering a triple drone from Quetzalcoatl Music; SO EXCITING!
I just finished your "Creating Harmonious Flow" course, which has a lot of good stuff in there, even for an experienced flute player. My wife is looking forward to taking that course, as she is just starting out. I also grabbed your "Getting Unstuck" and "Embellishments" courses, after completing the "7 Day Jumpstart" course.
You've got a really good teaching technique, and even though I'm old enough to be your dad, (I'm 58), I very much enjoy learning from you. I guess I'm going to have to add this "Drone Flutes" course to my library!
Thanks for all you continue to do for the flute playing community, and many blessings to you and your wonderful family.
This course will be so good for you! Enjoy!
Thank you very much for the valuable tips Jonny.
My pleasure!
Another wonderful video...Thank you Jonny!!!
My pleasure!
good
Very well done, Jonny! 👍👌👏
Thank you, Liesbet!
Best type of drone for semi beginners
Drones are definitely a little bit more challenging than a single chamber flute. Depending on how long you have been playing, it might be best to become a little more comfortable with a single flute first. Beyond that then it becomes a question of fit. A higher key will be easier to reach if you have smaller hands or aren't accustomed to wider spaced finger holes. But they are so much fun to play! Enjoy!
can you make a video on all the notes on all off your flutes
The new course I have created has ALL the notes that my drones can play. There is a new font/drone tab diagram that I created to show this. I have done all the work up front for you so that you can start playing immediately. Here is the link: www.jonnylipfordmusic.com/pages/new-course
@@JonnyLipford cool
@@JonnyLipford thanks mate
Watching your videos is always a pleasure because I've always learned so much to improve my practice, but I would like to know at times the maker of a particular flute! Ex: the large base F# with the low E! Can you provide info on the maker?
I think you are referring to the low F# with mid B. As mentioned in the video, that is made by Brad Young of 4 Winds Flutes.
Thanks for all the really good tips.
I wish there would be a way to get in touch with 4 winds flutes to see about getting one of their drone flutes. So far, using their website, I haven't received any response.
Thanks again.
Not sure what is going on there. You might try a direct phone call. The phone number is listed at the top of Brad’s web page.
Hi, Jonny. Thank you so much for the video. I’m new to flutes. And I just got my first flute. A drone flute in F. But since I have a relatively short fingers, I can’t reach the fourth hole (4th from the bottom) with my ring finger so I used my pinky finger instead.
Is that common? Or should I change my flute to a higher note, like C, so my ring finger can reach it and the holes are closer to each other?
Thank you so much for the help :)
Hey Aga, a drone flute is an ambitious start for your first. I generally recommend starting with an A or G minor to find your way around at the start of your Native flute journey. There is no reason why you can't start with an F, but as you are already experiencing difficulty, maybe another flute as recommended would be a good idea. I have many courses and tutorials available for Native flute in Horizons Flute School (horizonsfluteschool.com) and we do those in the key of A minor. Almost everyone has an A minor and almost everyone can reach all the holes right away.
Can u put a link to you playing that massive sized flute . Thanks
How about this one? ua-cam.com/users/shortsULr8AlRSvdY?feature=share
What you think from someone that doesn't know how to play flute, would this course allow me to understand? I have a drone and I want to learn from that
That is probably not the best course for getting started with flute. That course assumes you can play and it is about drones specifically. A better course to get started would be this one! www.jonnylipfordmusic.com/collections/native-american-flute-lessons/products/beginning-flute-course. Thank you for asking!
@@JonnyLipford thank you!
Would love to play a low tone flute instrument with 3 pipes, where can I buy one?
You might try elementalflutes.com. Dustin Selva can make whatever you need.
what maker makes the best drone flutes
Like so many "what's the best" questions, there are too many factors to answer this one, sorry.
I just received my wooden double barreled flute I purchased from an online second hand store. It appears to have been played a lot but I am having problems getting more than one note out of it. Help!! It has 3 notes on the left and four notes on the right. Any suggestions please and thank you!
It's really hard to say what the issue might be. The blocks could have shifted during shipping. Or it could be damaged. Its tough to speculate. Good luck to you though.
hello, which flute would you recommend for shamanic sessions?
Great Irish sound!!! Reminds me of the hobbit
Hello Jonny, I just received my first drone flute, do you have a beginners course? I'm finding it quite a bit different from my regular Native American Flutes.
Yes I do! Here is a link to a course we offer in Horizons Flute School but you can buy it ala carte too! www.jonnylipfordmusic.com/collections/native-american-flute-lessons/products/beginning-flute-course Thank you for asking!
where did the course go?
It is still there as far as I can see. Perhaps there is a problem with your login? Be sure you are on the correct tab at the top. Email me if you cannot resolve this.
