    Videos like these are extremely helpful especially when you aren’t able to have private lessons, or because when your with a band teacher in schools they usually play one instrument better than the others and sometimes can’t teach other instruments as well

    • @evilpossessedcat9572
      @evilpossessedcat9572 Рік тому +10

      Or, (as of my school) your band teacher pays attention to the other instruments more then flute, therefore you don’t get to learn as much

    I joined band, not because I’m truly interested in it, but because my sisters were in it and I want to kind of impress them. I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing or I got myself into. Should I quit? I kind of want to not quite because I want to challenge myself and play an instrument, I would play the piano but that’s out of my control.

    Hey! Thanks for the tips! Do you have any tricks to stop salivating? I dunno if it’s common for any other flutists, but I’ll start to play fast or generally high octave notes and I start spitting which ruins the note completely.

    • @TheFlutePractice
      @TheFlutePractice  Рік тому +5

      I find that very often, the increase in saliva is connected to excessive tension. Or sounds like it may be the case, especially because it is happening in the high register and when playing fast as you probably get a bit more tense. Work on release your embouchure and see if that helps!

  • @santabarbaracommunityflute6560
    @santabarbaracommunityflute6560 3 роки тому +1

    Love your videos! I have one question that I cannot seem to find an answer to anywhere. Does a perma-frown affect one's embouchure? I have been playing flute for many years to a very high level. I've noticed that my tone has been diminishing ever since I noticed a perma-frown developing. Throughout my the years of my playing flute, I have never had issues with flexibility but now I am having a hard time playing in the 2nd octave (let alone the 3rd octave). I am able to play these registers after a long session of long tones and harmonics along with doing some weird facial contortions. I am assuming it is all related to my perma-frown. Any help is greatly appreciated! 😀

    Hi, and thanks for this great helpful video! As for singing and playing, have you tried Ian Mullin's spin on this where he doesn't hum the same pitch, but "growls" his lowest possible one while playing our middle B on the staff. When you do it right you are producing a new distorted sound, and not any distinct note at all. The improvement effect on tone quality can be shocking.
