OMG, it worked!!! The high G and its friend the F# are sounding chrystal clear and not like a herd of rats in a drainpipe any more, thanks to your advice, thank you for posting

6 notes without moving your fingers? I love the flute.

I came here to learn how to play a g7 because my lips go so tight together, my lips make a buzz noise 💀

omg I can't stop laughing because of 2:12 😂😂

Yaaaasss!! Love 2:12!! Lol!!

Flute goals My high C always gets me stuck.

I've been playing the flute for 5 years and never knew you could play six notes on the low C fingering. Thanks! I'm definitely going to try out some of your techniques.

i tried it and when i finally got it, i went to my friends house to show off i ended up forgetting how my mouth was formed my friend was laughing

I really don't know how to play high notes without sounding very LOUD. Could someone please help with that?

That was very helpful. I was able to play the high notes, but was having difficulty with high notes when combined with large intervals. Practicing with harmonics gave a good guide for knowing exactly where to aim. I was a professional bassoonist who started on the flute, but after I quit the bassoon I've been playing my flute again.

Helped greatly. I'm an 8th grade flute player, and have been playing for 4 years. Recently I have been having trouble playing high F and G, and I've been freaking out since our concert is in early December. I tried playing the scale you were, where you play the note low, and then high, and it helped me play the notes I needed. Thank you! :)

I’ve been playing flute for 5 months now, and you’ve really helped me out! Thank you!

I've been playing flute for 20 years, but recently got a new flute and can't get anything above high D to work. I'd never known about harmonics but OH MY GOODNESS! Just tried it and this is a game changer. Thank you!

1. Whoever edited the video did a great job. 2. This video also helps anyone who stopped playing the flute for years and wants to start anew (although I can attest in my case that I lost nothing except speed/dexterity).

Wow thanks for teaching everyone online you doing great work thanks 🙏👍 Thanks for example explaining how to do easy way less effort & struggle

You are amazing! Thank you so much❤

Amelie, you are in a league if your own. It's always a treat to learn from you. You are my Master teacher

I've been playing flute for almost 10 years. 6 notes without changing the fingering. Amazing! 💓

Excellent!! The breathing tips, relating it to singing and the visualizations were all immensely helpful!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Your channel has deeply impacted my understanding of music and singing as well as flute playing. I fell in love with the flute again and can visualize sound and frequency so much more, thanks to you!!! 🤗🙏😍🥰

I play a bamboo flute and the tip to try blowing in different vowels helped a lot!

This is a perfect video for learning high notes. Been having issues with it. And this fixed my problem in just minutes .

Beautiful inside and out and so talented, I,m hoping that early 40s wasnt too late to get good on the flute, the high notes have set back a good start. This is inspiring though. Many thanks from Ireland'

Video starts at 2:12

Super vidéo, c'est ça quand tu fais un avec ton instrument. Tu es incroyable. ça fait 25 ans que je joue mais je n'arrive pas à dépasser la 3ème octave. La théorie m'aide à comprendre sur quoi travailler. Merci!!!

Amlie, your channel is fantastic. You have answers to everything and, most importantly, those answers do work. I am long time multi-instrumentalist (means, I know where and how to start properly), so I decided to teach Flute to myself completely from scratch all alone. No, it isn't hard at all. It just like any other instrument: patience, practice and practice again. And patience. :-) You helped me for low register (mine is B-Foot, and I sounded like a teapot). Now you helped me with high register, where I sounded like a steam engine. Now I went through all chromatic diapason of the entire Flute and it does work! I still have to remove some air, equalise tone etc. But hey, it was just few days in total as I started. So I am totally fan of you. :-) Keep teaching Flute as your way is totally cool with no bulls***t! Love you.

That was super helpful! I did the thing at 0:30 with my low G and it magically turned into a middle register G wtihout any effort! wow!

Omg when you did that “ you know the singers they go eeeeaaaahh”. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You are a wonderful+ calm teacher. You give me confidence I can find each note

had a test in band on the C scale. after this, i was able to play high C easily. thank you so much, i love your channel.

2:12 honestly this is the best youtuber that plays a flute lol. I play my flute everyday. Omg you’re so funny I LOVE YOU

I tried today this advice, and I was surprised how easy was for me to play the high notes. Thanks!

I love the way you visualise your thoughts on how to teach a certain technique :) Thank you for your videos! :) 🌷

This helped me alot. I am learning to play the flute and I am having troubles getting the upper register clear. Thank you for this video

Thank you for your assistance

omigod 2:12 😂 love these tips BTW , this will help me for my band concert! Subbed and liked!!!!

Yet another fantastic vid ! Lots of golden tips, extremely helpful, even though it's NOT easy to make acceptable high register notes for a self-taught adult learner. Merci beaucoup Amélie et longue vie à TFC ;)

This was the first vid that actually helped me break into the higher register for the first time, thanks!

i am so so so so grateful for your video this helped me to learn how to play higher notes on my dizi flute thank you very very much i am your humble and grateful subscriber for now on

I WASNT READY FOR FLUTE LIFE! Girl, you're awesome!

0:28 sounds like the start of the intro to the old show 'Home Improvement' lol

Thank you for the video, very useful

Wow thank you so much! I've been playing for 2 years and your videos help me so much

Thank you so much for this video. I'm just starting to learn the flute and was having troubles with high register notes. Didn't quite understand harmonics on the flute until your demonstration with low C. After about an hour of working on harmonics, I went back to try D-E-F in upper register and, sure enough, it happened with little effort and no straining of my face.

Semplicemente fantastica! Congratulazioni per il tuo lavoro! Grazie 🙏

This video helped me so much! It was much easier to reach the high notes and it sounded heaps better too ♥️

I love the way you explain how to play the upper register. I play alto sax and I reach a flute student who is having troubles in the upper register. This video helps, I will use it in my class. I did not know you could get the overtone series in flute. Also, your explanation of the use of vowels and the egg is what I use for my sax students. Thanks

Thank you soooo much!!! This helped a lot I've been playing for 3 years and my high notes just started to not come out but this helped a lot thank you!!!

excellent teacher

Such pure tone you make. Wow.

This helped a lot, thanks!

I had my second flute lesson, and I am not able to hit the higher notes yet but I keep trying. I enjoy watching your videos on technique they are very helpful in

I like how serious you are while explaining and funny at the sametime 😅😅

Omg this helped me so much! My band director isn’t very good at helping with this type of stuff and I have a hard time reaching my high Eb and high F. You’ve made it really easy to understand and now I can hit the Eb with ease and sometimes the F! Thank you

Playing those high notes have become second nature to me now. And it's thanks to you!

i feel like sometimes i try to make my aperture hole way too small and my lips vibrate(??) and it just ends up sounding horrible and i have absolutely no idea how to fix that lol but i’m trying

This really helped me! I'm self teaching and never knew to tense my abs, so thank you for that

you are amazing! Love the visuals (focusing down vs up. and the egg in the back of the mouth)

2:12 lol I was not expecting that, I couldn’t stop laughing

thanks for the tip. I managed to get all of them easily, now try to reach one more just for the challenge.

I feel so inspired! I am learning the flute and hope to sound as high as you! 😊

I’m just started to learn 3rd octave and this video helped me so much💕

Oh ye getting it now thanks

Keep the note under you and ride the note. Thank you so much for the breathing tip!

Great insight. The way our playing... somehow... translates itself into physical visualisation. It's a real kyneshetic thing.

Very impressive that I can play the high G and not the low one 😎 I’m not gonna stress, I’m learning

Thank you!

So simple - and works fantastic (on the Bansuri btw.)! Thank you very, very much!

Very helpful, thanks!

Thank you for the tip on practicing with harmonics. That is really helpful. I am only starting back after a very long break. Had my flute cleaned and overhauled (not a lot needed doing as she only had me as one careful lady owner :) ) and I am chuffed how much I remember :) even though I do not sound great I enjoy the rediscovery. I practice the harmonics and hopefully my high register will improve :)

The 'riding dirty' clip with digital sunshades... priceless!!

The advice at 3:20 was totally helpful!!!

You're such a great teacher ❤️

Very good method to tell us

I love flute

Excellent way of teaching.

OMG your advice is soooooo useful!

Hockey jokes I love it, 2:42! Thanks so much my lesson teacher kept criticizing me on my high notes and I did this for awhile went back to class and he said I improved so much!

Thank you, thank you very much!!! I applicated all your advices and I get better high notes!!!! Kisses from Argentina
