I just saw this video. Is the trill guide still available?
Composer here, thank you for sharing this very useful and informative video! 🙂🙂🎶🎶
Hi Jane I have a question about flute. How do you get less spit in your flute? Whenever I’m done with a song the inside of my flute is dripping I need help any tips of on to keep you from doing that?
Jane...you forgot about the other 10,001 variables that all need to be perfect. I've seen circus performers juggle a maximum of six objects at the same time. These are highly skilled professionals. Imagine trying to give them 9,995 more items to juggle at the same time.
Are you Australian ?
Ah great my head hurts every time I try to practice flute I hope this will help . Thank you so much
Happy to help! Let us know how you go! 😊
Brittany and Wales have very close connections, including language, which is why their music sounds more Celt than classic French
Ooh nice! Thanks for sharing! 😀
I have to go to band
Enjoy band! 😊
👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! x😊
What about circular breathing? Is that allowed in concert band or something, because you still get air and you can blow forever
If you can pull it off well then go for it! Normally with circular breathing you don't get a strong tone compared to if you're playing normally. 😀
@ Yeah its harder than it looks 😂 I can’t do circular breathing tho
Im in 7th grade and i can play the highest note in this video!
2:04
That's awesome! Keep up the good work! 😀
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your videos! I am a trumpet player who was asked to teach a music class in school. I knew NOTHING about playing flute! Your videos have been very helpful and informative. Thank you!
Aww you're so welcome! Glad to hear it helped you with your music teaching! 😊
UHM HELLO!?! BEAUTIFUL!! What are the notes for each?? I want to learn so baddd
The link to the piece is in the description. Enjoy! 😀
Okay now okay now WHY HAVE I JUST LEARNED THIS WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE AS PLAYING FLUTE ( I’m in 7th grade playing advanced can’t and no one told me I was wrong 😭
Hopefully you can fix those bad habits now so you can improve your flute playing! Woohoo! 😊
Heyy..how i can be a Professional in my flute In a short time??
Practise with intention and often. You've got this! 😀
I feel like I'm squeezing down so hard to get a good sound. I took my flute to the music store and the technician shone a light in to the inside of the flute and could see many gaps where the keys are not closing properly. Mine is a previously owned flute so I wasnt aware of this problem and hope that I didn't cause it by squeezing too hard. I think I was squeezing too hard because there were the gaps. I think my playing will improve greatly once this situation is corrected. Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Hopefully when getting rid of those leaky keys on your flute, it will feel easier for you to play. You shouldn't have to press super hard with your fingers when playing flute, if you are this might be a sign that you have some leaky keys.
As a student just now learning to play and having trouble with higher notes I can say that I never thought it would be this easy
If you have the right instruction, it can be very clear to learn the flute. 😊
Or maybe tell ones who do that, to pretend like they have a basket of fruit sitting on top of their heads and that they have to not rubberneck to the flute in order to not tip over the basket and tumble the fruit.😁😁😁😁
Ooh nice! I like it! 😀
Apparently, before modern computer rendering, animation production was such a laborious chore that there was little budget for original music. That's why the Warner Brothers producers opted to tap classical pieces from the public domain to serve as the soundtrack for these cartoon classics.
Ooh that makes sense! Thanks for sharing Chris! 😀

Hello, teacher. I so do know how that you love working with kids!!!! The discovery of the presence of this song is still new to me having only come across it approximately three months ago. Anyway, this is a extraordinary piece of music, and this morning, before heading out to church, I came across the little hands of this oboeist executing the performance of this beautifully and thought that I would share the link with you. th-cam.com/video/w3frQW6zLE4/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUsZS5tb3JyaWNvbmUgZ2FicmllbCdzIG9ib2UtLS0tU29saXN0YSBOaWNvbG8%3D Have a good one, from the USA and for the love of music.
Are you a flute teacher or a sorceress? I've been playing for 8 days now. First day: no sound at all. Second day: one or two sounds. From then on, notes down to D, and some tentative hints at overblowing (clarinet is my main instrument, so I know overblowing in principle). My tone: super-mega-ugly. Now, after your video: 500 per cent better sound! Much less air is going the wrong way. Thank you!!!
Awww you're so sweet! Glad to hear I could help! 😀
How often should I wash the cleaning cloth and how to wash it? Thank you ❤
I wash mine when it needs a wash - so it depends how much I'm using it. 😀
Lovely, teach. I would love to hear you play, " Twilight" ( Three Flutes and 🎹 ) or "Summer" ( Flute and Piano) by Master Herman Beeftink. He is an AWESOME composer. You might already have come across him.
Ooh nice pieces! Maybe one day! 😊
@@JaneFluteSchool Thanks for taking it into consideration, teach!!!👍😎
I can hit the high C#!!!!!!!
Yay awesome! 😀
my problem is whenever I play low C it wants to crack into a high C (bamboo flute)
Use a gentle airstream to get the low C to come out. 😊
Excuses me I went to learn about low & higher and there chords can you teach me?
For higher notes, use a smaller embouchure with a consistent airstream. We don't play chords on the flute. 😀
Thats so cool!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Beautiful! I’m doing this for flute for Christmas! :D ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ooh nice! Thank you! Glad you liked it! Enjoy playing it! 😀
I'm a grade 12 struggling with the flute in instrumental music class. I spoke with my teacher and he said I need to take matter in my own hands, and so I did. But, for that I need to know the notes and how to get a clear, but kind of low sound on the flute. I wonder if you could help me improve ? I hope you have online classes, if you do just let me know and I'll join as soon as possible.
If you're interested in learning more from me, I have an online flute school called The Flute Academy. Here's the link to join if you're interested. www.flute.school/academy
I think I am doomed because of a rather prominent Cupid’s bow upper lip. But, I really enjoy flute and wish I could get a consistently good tone
If you have a tear drop lip, you can still play the flute, you will just need to play the flute with an offset embouchure. Here's the link to my video on this topic. th-cam.com/video/8FMHJbkdijk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=KlVIL9jht_mTdJDJ
@@JaneFluteSchool : Thank you Jane! I actually found something that has changed everything for me - It's called the Flip Head flute joint. For what I'm doing with my 3 piece soft-rock band.. it is perfect. I am already playing solos at the gigs. Proper playing is obviously better.. but for what I need, this is a great option.
Doesn't the size of lips impact on this advise? For example, I have a very thin - almost nonexistent- lower lip.
Yes, you might have to adjust this if you have very small lips. Move the flute lower on your lip. 😀
I struggle so much with C and thought it was just i couldn't play it at first bc if my embouchure but could play C# fine. I do have to REALLY try to stretch my fingers and was beginning to think my fingers were the problem but u first got my daughter to press the roller and C# key and i played it perfectly. So my problem is my fingers cannot stretch far enough without my fingers slightly coming off the keys. Is this just a note i will never be able to play???
If you're struggling to reach the keys, make sure the rod of your foot joint is in line with the trills keys. This should hopefully make these keys easier to reach. 😊
i was a clarinet player, ( i was actually more interested in playing flute in band but my director said clarinet suits my shape better). i played it for two years before moving to another country. my dad is a traditional bamboo flute player, and he knew how much i wanted to learn flute, and my family ins't rich so my dad bought an 80 dollar flute for me. i played it for maybe a week, forgot about it for about two years. i opened it up maybe 3 months ago, and it worked GREAT- until today, when all of a sudden, i couldnt play any note below A, and then no sound came out of it, and even if it did, it was really high pitched, and it didnt even sound like the note it was supposed to play. anywho, i saw this video and decided to test wether it was me or it was the flute by playing my dad's bamboo flute (which was a little harder, but i was still able to play it). i asked my dad to play it and no sound even came. i immediately knew it was the flute, not me. never the less, i do not at all regret buying and playing a cheap flute, because it gave me an experience wether i wanted to continue playing flute or not. although, i am about to be pretty busy for the next few months with exams and stuff, so maybe after a couple months, im going to talk to my family and invest in a more expensive flute. from my experience, saying that you shouldn't buy cheap flutes isnt exactly fair, because it depends on the situation (wether you are interested in it, or if you have enough money, or like other things she mentioned in the video). but cheap flutes are definetely great for people who are not sure about wanting to continue it or for beginners :)
I definitely agree with you! Cheaper flutes are great for people who are on the fence about playing flute or not. It is great to give it a go on an affordable budget! Hopefully you can upgrade your flute soon and recommence along your flute journey! 😀
@@JaneFluteSchool thank you! :)
I’m a little late to the party but I recently purchased a new headjoint that was a little snug at first and silly me put it together yesterday to practice instead of going to get it resized and it got stuck. I panicked and called every local(ish) music/repair shop to bring it in since I can’t store it in its case and ship it to my technician, and found a place that’ll fix it within the next few weeks. 🥲 But hopefully I get it back soon, miss it already! In 18 years of playing I’ve now learned my lesson to never put a joint in that doesn’t fit well!
Oh no! That would have been so scary when it got stuck! That's good to hear you'll get it fixed soon! Hopefully they can resize the head joint for you so it will fit well in your flute! 😀
It works so well. I always wondered who first thought to try hot wax or if it was found by painful accident 😂
Glad to hear it works well! 😊
❤
Thank you! 😊
What about a recommendation for a professional flute? (Not a student flute)
I play on a Muramatsu flute 😀
@@JaneFluteSchool Sounds great 👍 Thank you. The advice I seek, is of a step-up/professional flute, in a more affordable price. I learned the flute for 5 years as a child, and still have my student flute.
I love your videos❤ thank you for all the hard work you've done for us.
You're so welcome! Glad to hear you're enjoying them! 💕
Super useful, thank you!
Glad it was useful! 😊
I tend to get mouth farts trying to get the high notes. So, of course, the aperture of my embouchure is too small as I tend to try to do a pinhead aproach.
Oh no! That's not good you're getting mouth farts for the high notes! Check out my free tiny course on tone to help you improve your embouchure. www.flute.school/free
