Thank you for my first flute lesson! When I was a boy, I wanted to play flute and wasn’t allowed. Now as a grown man, I’m getting to do it myself!

Emily, many years ago when I was still young and a student, a friend let me borrow her silver flute for a while, she did not play. I caught onto it very quickly because I play several other instruments. I took the flute often into the forest to play and to my amazement I saw deer being attracted to the sound and come very close. Then I tried the same with horses, playing the flute up on the ridge that separates the Bay Area in Berkeley California from the different landscape and the horse ranches of the back country. Standing by the fences on the ridge with my flute at least a dozen horses would come up from the valley below and stand very close. I felt like a pied piper for hoofed animals, such as deer and horses.

As an alto and tenor saxophonist learning flute to prove a point to a flautist who hates me, this is extremely helpful.

Channels like this are one of the few redeeming qualities of youtube

I used to play the flute when I was in college and stopped right after I graduated. Now, I'm trying to relearn everything. Kinda forgot the everything since it's been so long. Thank you for the tutorial. It was very helpful!

[zagnose]

I have a concert tomorrow and i'm watching every single tutorial to do my best, wish me luck!

Today is my 57th birthday. I have received a beautiful flute as a gift. I took a semester of flute as a child, but that was so long ago that I have forgotten everything. I am here to begin anew.

HUGE TIP FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS
I'm a complete beginner (just got my flute 45 minutes ago) and something I had trouble with is making a sound. I struggled for quite a while until I played around with the angle. I was angling the lip plate so it was at a 90/80 degree angle and I could only get tiny sounds. But then I put the lip plate flush with my lips (basically kiss the lip plate and then pull it slightly back so your lips aren't touching it) and that makes it world's easier

i’m really glad i found this channel honestly. i found out my late sister’s flute is still functional and have been dying to try and learn. thank you for giving me this opportunity to grow closer to her memory.

Went from picking up my new flute for the first time to being a master in 14 minutes flat. Thank You!

[Sushii-nodk]

I am amazed and shocked how emily is the only person who explains and teaches so well unlike other people we met. My sis is 6 and alr know the basics of the flute thanks to you so u deserve my subscription thanks!

[sushicdal]

I was gifted a very expensive flute so I want to learn! I’m actually a percussionist lol.

[-chesnut-]

My grandfather just got me one, so excited! <3


Edit: I just found out it’s a glory one, the cheapest ones you can get, now I’m sitting here crying bc my hopes were up I’d find lessons for mine. I just don’t wanna tell him that because he’s spending so much on others, too.

!!! These parts are only for if you happen to know parts before it, such as reason in following your book directions !!! And yes, these are in order.
0:01 - Head Joint and making sound
2:25 - Assembling your flute
4:20 - Holding the flute
6:20 - Rhythms, Beat Counts, and Time signatures. (This much can be a little over whelming, may want to take a break in between these lesson timings)
7:12 - Treble Clef, lines on Treble, and positioning #2
11:06 - B Note. Another comment may appear later, I’m a lazy kid sorry so part 2 comment later :]

[khaliahgrant]

It's my second day with my flute and I can already make a sound and play a small piece thank you so much

[DG-kqzf]

Can you post a beginner lesson like this on how to hold a piccolo?
I've looked everywhere on how to hold the piccolo.
Just a five minute video would be so appreciated.
Your lessons are so smooth and natural. Thank you.
