You make amazing flute videos and you inspire me so much. I'm a guy flute player and people sometimes make fun of me for it, but your videos always keep me strong. Please continue making your videos and thank you for them.-David
David Tyler My best friend and he's a guy who plays flute, and he's in the district's honor band and is first chair in my school, and he's a freshmen . he plays 5 instruments
David Tyler lol in India the God of flute is Krishna who is male, here if women play flute will be criticized 😂 although there is an amazing lady flutist from India , Rasika Shekhar .
tip: you should try putting the lyrics off the sound down below to gather a bigger audience and people who want to learn can learn the rhythm of the song.
My daughter has just started and is so excited to come across your videos, which are getting her even more excited about it. She can't wait to see the new videos you post. AWESOME! Thank you for making our morning! - Deb
Our band teacher made us watch you to see how we're suppose to play and as soon as she pulled up the video I screamed, "THAT'S MELISSA!" and was like ooooo everyone just heard me.
My nine year old son just started playing my 40 something old flute 'as did my twenty eight year old daughter. When. She was the same age. .. my son found. Your page and it made me pick up my flute again after forty years and thanks to you I can rock covers it like riding a bike. ..it came back to me.... love you so much. ..by the way my son's only been in class for three weeks and the teacher sent home a note stating he could teach the class. ... since he broke out with some Iggy. ...thanks to you and your notes. ... YOU ARE AWESOME. ....
I don't like the people who disliked this because she is truly amazing at all this flute stuff I am really inspired by her I'm accually learning my flute right now
Honestly you're absolutely amazing! I've been binge watching your videos and I can't get over your amazing tone. As a flute player of 3 years, this is very inspiring and fabulous!!
HOLY CRAP girl!!!!! you are AWESOME AND SO TALENTED,GREAT VIBRATO AND TONGUING!!!! im very empressed and im only a 7th grader how do u get like to where u r
my older sister used to play flute while I sang and my other sister played piano and my brother played guitar... listening to your covers brings back those happy memories from when we were still a family...
Your videos really inspire me. I have a band concert coming up and these really make me believe I can do great. And when I was in choir I sang this song and this is one of my favorites.
Hey Melissa! You are an amazing role model. You really set a good example of never giving up and following you dreams even if they take a lot a practice and time. Your music is wonderful and I recommend you make or somehow "publish" your sheet music so others can play like you. Love u!☺️❤️
OMG SOO NICEE....REALLY GOOD .... sorry my english isn't good but how much time you must ,.. ehh ... exercise ... (Pls Verbessern ! deutsch : omg so (ka) ... wirklich gut ... sorry mein englisch ist nicht gut aber wie lange hast du zum ueben gebraucht?)
I known it sounds weird, but before you start playing, expand your stomach. Don't inhale a bunch of air, it's better if you expand your belly and use a small amount of air for the note
I normally do breath exercises beforehand. I would put your hand in an "L" shape and put your knuckle against your mouth and breathe in for eight beats and exhale for eight. Try to push out as much air as possible. Repeat that about four times. You then inhale for eight beats and exhale for six beats and repeat that four times. You then inhale for eight beats and exhale for four and repeat four times. You then repeat this process twice to expand your lungs. When you play, try to make your mouth almost into a frown so the overture is steady
I'm Advanced at the flute so that means I pretty good...to help you out you want to take a deep breath but blow kinda fast enough to j make noise and keep a paist of not going to fast or not to slow or it won't work keep practicing.. Trust me
what do you mean by like the notes? if so it kind of is G is like the same for sax you put down 3 fingers on the top of the sax for flute you put 3 fingers plus pinky
Actually, I play the flute and it is not something you can just pick up and play! It's so hard but once you learn it becomes easy. So don't ever say flute is easy! And this song ⬆️😍
I recently started to play, 2 months ago, middle school band elective. You are sooo good. You are an inspiration. You can make any song sound awesome and beautiful. Keep playing! I'm only 12, and I hope by the end of the year I am better than my current level :) Thanks for the beautiful flute playing Melissa! :):):):)
Wow, This is FAVORITE song and I thought you did a glamorous job on it!! You've given me inspiration to do flute covers! Your tone and posture are off the charts! I love hearing your music, it gives me cold chills!! Keep up the good work!! 😉 Your doing a magnificent job!!
Wow! You're the most amazing person ever; I have been playing flute for almost 4 years! Now I'm gonna make it my goal to learn some of these songs. You're so awesome!!!!!
Your amazing but my only pet peeve is that you hold your flute low if my teachers saw me doing that they would cuss me out. I have just been taught to always hold my flute high. Other than that you simple sound amazing. @melissa.Flutes
Yes the flute is amazing! I have been playing for about 2 years now as well. At first your going to suck. You will know 2 notes. Don't expect to be able to play any of these songs right off the bat. I think I was only able to play these songs my 2nd year. By the end of the first of your taking a school corse you will most likely Come out barely knowing one scale. But stick with it the next year because that's when most people including me suddenly got really good. I'm so glad I chose the flute in 5th grade! It's super fun once you get past the beginners stuff so I recommend you just stick with it and go. P.s Actually practice at home I didn't all my first year and I regret it. Although I had natural talent to make up for my laziness...perks :)
I do. Make sure your sitting up Straight, your flute is high up (your arms will hurt) and this is really hard but try and push your feet to the ground😉
I'm not sure if this will help, but for me, when I have to play a really high note, I tighten the corners of my mouth. I've been playing for two years so I'm not a pro, but I hope this will help
For me I have been whistling my favorite songs long before I started playing flute so if you can whistle I'd say practice with whistling first then learn the notes. It has helped me tremendously with my flute playing. Good luck. :)
Hey Ms.Melissa. I am Samuel Washington. I play the flute to. I am good as you.I can play lots of songs because of you and I learned so much. Thank you.
you have to put your head joint on to the body then the foot joint but the keys on the body should match up with the hole on the head joint then the bar on the foot joint should match with the keys on the body.
Maravilhosa. Amo lindo. Estou ouvindo me deixou calma.Amo todos os instrumentos e você toca lindamente. Faz um bem ao ouvido e com que alegria posso esse momento te ouvindo. Obrigada por nós proporcionar um devaneio na música.
I love your cover of my favorite song, I actually bought a flute recently and my goal is to play this song as well as you do one day! :) You're amazing!
You make amazing flute videos and you inspire me so much. I'm a guy flute player and people sometimes make fun of me for it, but your videos always keep me strong. Please continue making your videos and thank you for them.-David
David Tyler how dare those people that make fun it doesn't matter who u r 😊
David Tyler My best friend and he's a guy who plays flute, and he's in the district's honor band and is first chair in my school, and he's a freshmen . he plays 5 instruments
Hoping you still play the flute...
David Tyler People in my school call me gay for playing flute. I think they are jealous. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
David Tyler lol in India the God of flute is Krishna who is male, here if women play flute will be criticized 😂 although there is an amazing lady flutist from India , Rasika Shekhar .
Your tone is so amazing!!! Perfect!
Thank you!

I also wanted to play SECRETS too. I love playing the flute and altogether saxophone too.
i love the flute my mom played it and now I do and whenever I watch your videos they inspire me so I work a lot on hard songs
Can any one give me advice on how to play a note for 6 seconds I'm a struggling flute player
Kawaii _Pusheen fast if you can take a breath before you play the note but just rember fast air
I known it sounds weird, but before you start playing, expand your stomach. Don't inhale a bunch of air, it's better if you expand your belly and use a small amount of air for the note
I normally do breath exercises beforehand. I would put your hand in an "L" shape and put your knuckle against your mouth and breathe in for eight beats and exhale for eight. Try to push out as much air as possible. Repeat that about four times.

I'm Advanced at the flute so that means I pretty good...to help you out you want to take a deep breath but blow kinda fast enough to j make noise and keep a paist of not going to fast or not to slow or it won't work keep practicing.. Trust me
I'm a flutist, and this is so inspiring! I can't wait to be able to play like you! You're amazing!
super...! I LOVE THIS SONG

xddd
This is beautiful :) I've been playing the flute for 6 years now and this is absolutely lovely
Is the flute similar to an alto saxophone
I play the saxophone, think that a flute is a really nice relaxing instrument and would love to learn.
what do you mean by like the notes? if so it kind of is G is like the same for sax you put down 3 fingers on the top of the sax for flute you put 3 fingers plus pinky
The flute is not similar to the alto saxophone because a flute doesn’t use any reeds
U speak ur words through ur flute. It's amazing and such pure talent.
I play the flute I wanna learn to play titanium I wish you can send me like a picture of the notes 😞
Francisco Acuna Look at the description....

Flute is awesome. I've been playing for 2 years and that's the best decision I've ever made.

First how well did you know how to play at first.Second is it hard.Third will you recommend it to me
Yes the flute is amazing! I have been playing for about 2 years now as well.
At first your going to suck. You will know 2 notes. Don't expect to be able to play any of these songs right off the bat.
I think I was only able to play these songs my 2nd year. By the end of the first of your taking a school corse you will most likely
Come out barely knowing one scale. But stick with it the next year because that's when most people including me suddenly got really good.
