^ This. Give me a run requiring double tonging over anything with super long drawn out phrases. What people don’t realize about flute it that you are basically playing a highly engineered soda bottle. Trying to maintain constant pitch and tone quality over very long phrases is actually in many ways much harder than the stuff that sounds virtuosic to non-flautists. As an example, if I need something easy that I can play well without practice or warmup off the top of my head not having played it for years, I’ll probably do a variation on Carnival of Venice that involves tossing in a bunch of fast (but easy) octave jumps or if I’m feeling a bit more ambitious, arpeggios. Impresses all the non-flautists. If I need to convince someone who actually plays flute that I really do play proficiently I’ll probably first play some quick scales, to get the flute warm enough that it doesn’t sound like crap (they’ll wait ‘cause they get it) and then do Dance of the Blessed Spirits. There’s lots of harder stuff out there than either of those pieces for sure, but the point is that even among the “back pocket repertoire” the easier sounding piece is actually sometimes harder to do well because flute is weird like that.

Personally, I disagree with this. I've got great lungs so breathing and keeping tones aren't very difficult for me. But I had to quit playing after 7 years because my hands got exponentially worse and worse with each year. In the end, it was nearly impossible to play 32nd notes at 240 bpm, but I tried my best to play them anyways. I really shined with the drawn out phrases, and I was the only one who carried those parts. It made me feel like I was still useful to our concerts. I greatly miss being able to play music. I didn't realize how passionate I was until one day I realized I would have to sell my flute, since I can't play it anymore. Even holding it hurts my wrists. Seeing prodigies being able to play fast notes makes me really happy, because they reached something I was forced not to do. I will always appreciate the "shimmer on top". I'd give anything to be able to be that again.

TRUE! im only and intermediate flute player but i used to play game with some mates where they would have to guess which songs are in a higher grade. They would all pick the fast paced songs because they sound more 'complicated'. for me long notes feel harder to maintain in terms of sound quality and slower songs feel more intentional and sound terrible if i mess up xD in a couple of years im sure this perspective may change tho.

The warmth in the tone is hard to achieve without making your breath“too wet” Long phrases in the middle c octave are hard…..

I did the same thing 😂

i can circular breathe but i can't apply it with the embouchure bc stupid braces >:(

Griffin Spears it’s harder wit braces I wish I could tell you the way I did it but I don’t even remember how I managed it

same instrument, same problem here

Flute gang ploblems

Exactly. You know your in trouble when you don't see rests or breath marks in a piece for 30 measures

Whenever I see little to no rests: Aw, I'm gonna miss being able to breathe.

not only that but being allowed a quarter second breath for 20-25 seconds is straight pain if you do it wrong

Have you met vocalists? Cause I'm pretty sure that's what most tenor and sopranos have to go through. As a baritone I had to go through that😅. I got used to it eventually

Blynq that reminds me of when one time I had the hiccups during a live performance at Houston and at the time I was playing bass clarinet and I was the only bass and the piece had like a 2 line solo after a 30 second repeat of whole notes and a quarter rest, so when I got to the rest I couldn’t take a breath because I freaking hiccuped so I literally turned nearly purple because I pushed out all of my air to play all of it... and that’s the time I nearly died 🙃

Double Bass >>>>

Thank you so much!!!!

Barbara there’s definitely a disconnect between the wind instruments and strings players. The whole concept of breath control and embouchure never really “click” until you have to do it.

Well I kinda am with you but i have to disagree with you because i also play clarinet and i cannot say that in any aspect the clarinet is harder than the violin main reason is because in the violin there is just so much to worry about at the same time and so many different techniques that you really need to dedicate yourself to learn violin well (not criticising anything i am just giving my opinion)

Who is your band director 🤨

OH MY GOD fellow flautist here who hates transposition. I was given oboe parts and I always had to play them an octave up and even THAT was awful. HOW DID YOU LIVE?!?

I'm a clarinet player and I was actually given a flute book once. Usually it's trumpet though.

As a clarinetist, in my high school chamber orchestra I constantly was reading off oboe and viola parts, and even occasionally bassoon (sometimes off sax when helping out the band too), so I can sight read off any of those. Transposition is tough at first but really useful to get good at

Going back and forth between parts too. Honestly it was a fun time

True

Really tho, I'm a flutist and we aim our airstream ACROSS the hole and and the air splits to create the sound, so air is lost and goes over the plate that we place our lips on. The rest of the air doesn't even go INTO the instrument itself

trumpets really do be thinkin they’re hot shit #flutegang #doublesgang #maketrumpetsstopcomplaining

@@fernpelt54 lmao

Oboes and their back pressure tho D:

I'm also a flute player and sustaining that note with that dynamic for 6 bars is very hard, and catstuffies tran is right half the air is lost everytime a flute player plays. I've attempted to play sphynx, and I definitely can say that there is a struggle with sustaining a long note like that. It's all about keeping the air flowing through the tone hole as best you can. I do wish that I could circular breath, but unfortunately flutes don't get the luxury.

What are you talking about. Squidward is obviously the best clarinet player

This is so true!

Put this on top

So true !!

They were saying the piece wasn’t as musically impressive as others. They assumed the technical side was up there but concluded it wasn’t “Paganini enough”.

Hello my fellow clarinetist. I'm glad you feel my pain, brother.

Dylan Reed I know, I was just explaining the technical side of the piece. I agree that the piece isn’t very musically.... verbose? as the others.

hm we should have said something... I personally would have said Elias Parish-Alvars as he gets compared to Liszt so indirect correlation?

I'd say Marcel Grandjany, he has some pretty difficult pieces

*sigh*... the harpists are always left out 😂

Maybe,,, Salzedo? A lot of his stuff isn’t that hard if you practice, but the tempos he writes are ridiculously fast, playing them the way he writes it is on a whole other level

Ingrid Wong One of the many struggles of a harpist. We are left out because we are the best

That's been true since Paganini's day

Alex von Seggern Quite right I must say.

Michael Moon that’s really interesting, I had just assumed that it was actually an instinctive/placebo type thing. I’m a piano player, and I know a fair few of my ilk who sometimes try to get a vibrato by wiggling the key side to side.

I think this too when they said it 😄

Not only that but the different methods of vibrato produce different tones I feel. There are some pieces where vibrato using your fingers wouldn’t be appropriate and same with mouth. Using fingers can be more subtle too.

That's pretty interesting, as a beginner trumpeter I kind of always assumed it was the only way to produce vibrato. :')

I play the same kind of vibrato on my oboe

What about flute

Valeria Cardenas I didn’t even notice they didn’t do Flute

I was way better at French horn than clarinet but I switched in middle school because i wanted to play the melody! My band teacher never forgave me.

@@melissaf88 I stuck with French horn through high school; it was hard but fun. Until we started playing pieces by Robert W Smith. I'm pretty sure French horn is his last favorite instrument. One that I remember very vividly is "Into the Storm" - a grade 3. For all the other instruments, at least. For the French horns: -30 straight measures of just playing F -A page turn in the middle of a phrase..... Twice -Literally the entire piece is repetition -Not even a single measure of melody It was so frustrating.

Isaac Dupras i played into the storm in high school (second horn) and the whole first page was one note! The worst! I’d have to say the best horn part I’ve played is el Camino real by Alfred reed, such great parts

Its true, we are always forgotten

Yes; I started the trumpet about six months ago. Large interval jumps are a piece of cake on the flute, and I've been frustrated that the trumpet doesn't make it as easy.

Though legato jumps on the flute aren't easy either :')

@@bente2203 I've gotten pretty good at that on flute. Trumpet, however, has been harder, but I'm still a beginner on that.

@@2NiceyAckerman a trick my old band director taught me, as he was a trombone player, is to sit for a little bit and just sit on open valves, low c g c e, and just practice for a while slightly tightening youf lips until you hit that next note. And then hold it for as long as you can. It will help with 2 things. 1 it will help with breath control and 2, it will help you build that muscle memory of how tight you embouchure should be. Another trick i learned is to sit with just your mouthpiece and just go up and down the scale. It should end up sounding like a really bad siren. Progressing further, you can eventually get to where you cut off your breath between notes. When doing that, try to work on the breath cutoff using the throat. Its more efficient and the tongue method will typically staccato your notes. But by far my biggest tip is just practice using just your mouthpiece. Typically i will warm up for a few minutes doing that as well.

@@FiendFyreNyx I have been doing harmonics (open valve notes, first valve notes, etc.) but not slowly like that.

I was wondering if he was actually singing into it, too! It sounded like overtone singing

I can do this on a trombone. Funny thing is, with doing it in certain ways you can actually play some whole chords bc of overtones
