In 5th grade in 2005 I did flute in band class. Never once did I get it to make a sound. Now after 5 minutes with your video I have a sound. Thank you.

As a trumpet player, I thought you guys had it much easier. This isn't as simple as I thought. And my cheek muscles are tired af now.
@Gibbles4325 жыл бұрын
I'm about a month in, and I retract my statement. Flute is a much easier instrument to blow, but it takes more air control, ie precice air speed and direction. Brass just requires a lot of air pressure behind the mouthpiece which gives me terrible headaches. I'm really starting to fall in love with this instrument.

Weird, I thought they had it harder. We're over here just buzzing our lips meanwhile flute has to literally blow. Just simply try blowing air through your mouth and you'll get a basic understanding

“The clarinet is the hardest wind instrument to play” my music teacher said to me as I struggled to make a sound on my flute. (I have only recently started to play the Clarinet)

Hi, I hope you're still available ... Thanks for the explanation. The sound sounds great, but when I connect the other parts of the flute and play, I still hear the sounds of air being released, especially in the high notes ... and the clicking of the tongue sounds like spitting instead of a delicate T ... What should I do?
