When you want to show off your flute playing skills at the pool party.
Paganini by the pool
The Flute Channel correction as a violinist I prefer calling Paganini the devil that gives people carpel tunnel
omg lizzo could do that
Thou hast cometh with a proper joke. Thou shalt hee hee to thous proper joke
@@Amber-ns5tg Thou == you, in context of verb 'be'.
... Thou art a common knave, twit!
Thy == your
... Thy intentions wert subtle, cockatrice.
thee == you as object
... I cast thee pearls, and ye become a pig.
Thine = possessive your
... Thine nose grows intoa a Snout, verily!
And so on. So,
"Thou hast uttered a proper jape, knave. Thou shalt hee-haw properly, thus." would've been a bit better
when you’re rushing in the morning and you forgot to practice so you just play your flute in the shower
(that’s oddly specific and I can’t relate)
Good for marching band. Sometimes it rains or its so humid
900
winnie schrader as your profile pic tho
Relatable
Sadly I relate
The plastic flute has surprisingly nice tone quality, but I don’t love the plastic-y buzz in the lower register. I also don’t like the second mouthpiece, sounds too much like a whistle, not a flute. Overall, I think it would be a great flute for outside gigs or for when your primary flute is in the shop.
Yup I think so too! Next is to try it in a concert hall!
I’m just gonna drop this here... I played one of these not too long ago. While I was definitely surprised that certain aspects were better than I was expecting... I would probably NEVER perform on one. The harmonic series just doesn’t come through on it. :(
Or for students to take home if a school doesn't allow them to take home a school owned instrument
Phoenix Farris i think theres a flute in my throat
(I don’t even remember making this comment um)
Interestingly enough, I think that a penny whistle sounds even more distinct than a flute, lol.
I love these new (relatively) inexpensive instruments that people are inventing and manufacturing. A lot of people simply do not realize that for a lot of people, even $180 for a plastic flute involves a huge sacrifice. These instruments are often the only way that a poor or working-class child can be given a chance to learn instrumental music, including classical. And they often don't sound bad; anyone who claims "golden ears," I'd love to do a double-blind test on them. The only thing I've ever been able to hear easily is conical versus cylindrical bore and light woods versus very dense hardwoods or other materials (pearwood versus mopane/ABW/delrin).
Totally! The innovation is amazing! We actually have people who've tried the golden ear test and will have a video out soon, the results are astounding!
@@flutechannel I'm very pumped for the results!!
So true. I'm on $5 an hour an haven't played my flute (gift) in years as I was homeless at one point and still can't afford $200 to service the thing, though I think you can get a Jupiter flute or something else silver plated for under $100.
Not always an option but in many cases schools will provide instruments either free (with sign out) or low cost rentals either from the school or a shop. Granted it was some years ago late 80's or early 90's, had an inexpensive rental clarinet. A little dinged up but it was wood rather than plastic. Maybe a better alternative to putting out even 180-200 on a beginner instrument especially if you don't even know if the kid will stick with it.
It is also great for people who suffer metal (Ni, Ag) allergy and can't afford a gold liplate. Like myself who had to give up flute playing because of that :((
It sounds like a wooden flute. It’s missing the ringing sound that metal flutes have but it also sounds really warm and airy. Honestly sounds WAY better than I was expecting.
Taking “playing in the bathroom for the acoustics” to the next level
Totally Michael, it sounded great in there, might be a new practice room! :D
_aestetic_
I should buy that flute for football games for when it just starts down pouring
*SO I CAN STILL FREAKING PLAYYYYY*
Totally! Might be a good idea! Thanks for watching btw Ariana.
Playing in the rain is the worst!
I play sousaphone, so our valves freeze as soon as water hits them. In my band we all get ponchos, but sousaphones have to put them over our bells like a tent.
Honestly though 😂
Play that sad titanic music when it rains 🤣
I don’t know what it’s called... 😅
Ya so you don’t ruin your flipping instrument
The plastic one honestly sounded better than I thought it would sound
Water resistant, wish I knew that existed when I marched in the rain.
I know, we've all done it if your in marching band.
Me: where was this 20 years ago!?
Serenade I know right
*koff* 40 years ago... but who's counting?
That moment when your main instrument is already mostly water resistant. Clarinet gang

Does flute playin in the shower work the same way as singing in the shower?
Sure it does! :D
The Flute Channel can you play the saxophone in the showerZ
@@naomimorales4163 no the pads would get wet.
David Rice Oh okay thanks :D
It does, I can confirm xD
I used to play flute, but had to stop because of a movement disorder. The Nuvo enables me to play again, as it's much lighter than My solid silver flute and I don't have to spend 30 minutes cleaning it after playing for only 10 minutes. It may not be the same, but it's better than nothing for me
I'm currently teaching myself woodwinds as a form of music therapy. I remembered how much joy I got out of playing the recorder as a child, and thought I might pick it up again after a traumatic event. I played oboe in school, but I want ready to spend $600+ on a new oboe. My friend suggested I try the fife, and that sent me down the road to wanting a flute, but again, I'm looking at the prices. This seems like a viable option, and I appreciate your comment about being able to use a lighter flute because I also have some hand strength/mobility issues. ❤
I hope you are enjoying your music, and thank you for this, a year later 😊
The bathroom makes the flute sound better.
Grell Sutcliff my band director said “it soUndS better in the bathrooM “‘ and then he told us a story of how he played a piano in the bathroom 😂! Funny story’s
Bathrooms always have awesome harmonics!
True bro
It suddenly becomes surround sound dolby digital
It does that so singing too
Being a tubist when u said the weight can be a struggle I made the most scrunched up face ever, lol
Masterchief 1 🤣🤣🤣 I started in French Horn and was much too heavy to march. I switched to flute.
I’m a tubist too #TubaGang
As a flutist I envy you, but I have joint & wrist problems, worsened with how I hold my instrument
Thank you, but why did you comment on this video at 1:00 am 😂
I get that tuba is heavy and the flute really isn’t. But DANG, my wrist starts to ache and it hurts a lot. I guess flute players mix that up with saying “flute is heavy!” when really it isn’t. It just hurts having your wrist in one spot for such a long time to the point where it starts to cramp!
Her: can you guess the music?
Little einstein veteran's: you call this a challege?
JackyBoy hhhh
Right!
LMAO- they were always like “can you match this piece to one of these places?”
Mozart?
First guess tune is: W. A. Mozart - Flute Concerto No. 1 in G major
Second tune is: G.P. Telemann - Fantasy in A Minor
Only because I want anyone who wants to know to be able to find them easily
Musical instruments you can bring to the beach:
In the 90's: ukulele, bamboo flute, nylon strings guitar and marimba. Everything else is prone to rust.
In 2019: all the above, plus flute (this one), saxophone(Jsax) and Clarinet (clarineo) NUVO could change the culture of seaside music forever!
Who’s dragging a huge marimba on the beach 😂😂
@@davids.pumpkins2215 They don't have to... Marimbas can be assembled on site, dismantled and assembled again if they need to use it somewhere else. If they were low on budget, they could make one from bamboo and just burn them when they're finished.
My point is, those musical instruments are what shaped the whole music genre of the people who lived by the sea.
Now that there are plastic instruments, they can make more elaborate tunes than there was before.
Muhammad Zulkhairi Mohd Nasir no i understood that it was just a really funny mental image, as someone who drags them around regularly it was just a funny thought 😂
Bring the keyboard
@@sigure.inspiration It's the 90's. Except the Yamaha SHS series, all the keyboards are still bulky and they cost even more than a marimba. But today portable keyboards are very common, so it would make sense.
I also forgot to mention steelpans/steeldrums. They are a staple of seaside music, especially in the Caribbean.
It didn't sound good until you played in the shower. Has no real resonance. The sound dies immediately.
The professional flute is 10,000x better.
But for a student it's a good deal
trevorpinnocky but a flute isn’t a resonant instrument. No matter how hard I flick mine with my finger, it has no sustain. Lol. I think the chamber of air is what resonates and not the flute itself. This is why the material doesn’t impact the sound like shape / bore / embouchure cut.
trevorpinnocky I think that’s what they call hearing with your eyes-like saying yellow gold sounds warmer.
@@gwgtaylor material does have impact to the sound colour, but as you said not as much as embouchure cut and obviously the flutist him/herself. Metal flutes generally would sound quite similar one to another, but for example wooden flute tone colour is quite different.
Yup it can, but more in the the extreme sides like high register notes etc.
1x better for each dollar
I-I play the saxophone, I don’t know why this was recommended to me

woodwindboi Thank you 💕
THANK UU
I like your water-resistant test. Ha. Your flute sounds much nicer, but the plastic one is not bad for what it is.
Everyone calls you a nerd in high school, then they look up to you when you are a professional.
Lol yes. You're too Busy practising to have a regular childhood but that's the price you pay.
*When you're early and you don't even know what to say-*
Glad your speechless! Hope you like it!
@@flutechannel You're so talentedd!! I wanna be just as talented as you are!
Last time I was that early...
Sound held up surprisingly well compared to your high-end flute. One thing I did notice was the keys were pretty noisy on the plastic flute. I imagine the plastic flute would be great for kids in marching bands playing in the rain. :D
I'm a pianist -- to my ears the plastic flute has a surprisingly very nice sound. I expected to hate it, but I really don't. Maybe some differences, especially in extreme range, but for $180 this seems like a very good 'first flute'. Again -- I'm a pianist, but to my ears it sounds quite nice. Thanks for sharing.
I bought the metallic blue version for myself three months ago as a birthday present. I had a metal student flute that I bought years ago to try to learn, but I put it down for a while and when I picked it back up it was in such poor condition that it was unplayable. The Nuvo flute was an affordable option for me, and while I was a bit skeptical at first, for a casual self-taught adult learner like me who is just a hobbyist, it has been perfect. I don't care about the sound quality because I'm just playing for myself! Three months in and I've already far surpassed where I ever got with my metal flute. I figure that once I outgrow it, I will spring for an inexpensive silver student model, but this is great for me for now. Also love the potential for children or for like high school marching bands that often play outside. The silicone padding and the sizing that is kind for beginners is also a great boon - I'm not in the greatest shape of my life and I am a small gal with short arms, so trying to hold up a metal flute long enough to practice well is a little tougher for me. Okay, huge paragraph over, suffice to say I'm happy to see the Nuvo flute getting more exposure lately because I really love the idea behind it :)
Super glad it worked out anna!

You keep on keeping on. You are doing just fine.
Don't know the first tune, but the second one is definitely Despacito.

@@tadople9677: I think he might have taken you telling me what was actually being played as you not getting the joke. I hope that wasn't the case, as my original comment was just to poke fun at my own ignorance.
Thank you for giving me the actual name, by the way.
First song is Motzart's concerto no. 1 in G major. I've been working on that piece on and off since I started playing again as an adult; after not playing for 15+ years, because my daughter decided to start playing too, and I wanted to play with her.
If you played an instrument throughout your formative years, depending on how long you played, it is as the saying goes "it's like riding a bike".
Mozart flute concertino In G major K 313.
Edit: I played this for an audition and it was really fun to play.
Your good! How did your audition go?
I got first chair in the youth orchestra I auditioned for!!!
@@davidkang6433 Thats amazing!
I was expecting it to be more of a muted sound than it was (as opposed to a bright sound from a metal flute). It sounded surprisingly good, but more importantly, I didn’t hear any leakage, and it seemed to have great ease of play.
I think it sounds more like a wooden flute. It doesn't "ring" like a metal one, not surprisingly. The biggest difference in tone seems to be at the very top end. The Nuvo sounds airier.
Dampens sound more, metal and glass or possibly harder plastic, would probably produce more "metalic" sound since it would be more of a hard stop for air. In fact flute made of sth with infinite density, completely without weight would sound most like it should but then it would be sine generator. Also listening to this online has no sense as you each have different speakers in laptops. Some can't reflect all audible range quite as good as some others. In fact most complaints are about characteristics of your own speakers.
My sister got bit in the face by a German shepherd and to be honest she hasn't been able to play the flute quiet right because of where her lip was technically nald off and basically I think this flute would make her a great Christmas gift so I'm so glad I came across your video
Hope she makes a speedy recovery!
When the band director doesn’t let woodwinds put their instruments away even though it’s raining
Totally.
The „cheap“ flute looks so beautiful
These plastic instruments have one great advantage: You can leave them somewhere in your room, on a chair, on the bed and occasionally grab them to play a few notes.
You don't have to be afraid that an expensive instrument might be damaged. In this way I live with several plastic recorders.
This way you practise a lot more as if you would do, being forced to unbox and assemble your instrument every time.
I have my flute from jr high for this purpose, i keep it assembled and laying around all day for incase I want to play. I tried to sell it once, but the pawn shop would only give me something like 30cad for it.
As someone who's not experienced in this part of music, I can rly hear the difference. The expensive one sounds much more gentler to the ear and absolutely lovely
wow that's a huge difference
Crazy, right?! Thanks for watching!
The piece that you played is called telemann fantasía no.2
I have to admit, that sound was better than I thought it was going to be. I'm actually impressed.
I could tell the most difference when you did the dynamic changes. To of metal flute sounded infinitely better. But I'm still impressed.
I am brand new to your channel. I love the down to earth comparisons. Not everyone needs or can afford an expensive flute. I love your playing.
Mozart's concerto in G major. I just got started practicing it.
I've never in my life considered playing the flute. Yet, here I am thoroughly enjoying the video.
That plastic flute sounds much better than I expected.
My marching band played one of those song and won with it
That's Amazing!
The water resistance is a good thing for marching band. I don't know how many times I got rained on on the field or parade. Often the woodwind were told to put their instruments inside their uniform jackets. This flute could be really useful.
Totally Laura! When I was in marching band years ago, I would've loved this!
Repair tech here! I actually own one of these (in green) for when I taught young players. Interesting fact about this flute is that they are "self leveling" pads. The pad sits on a spindle and pivots to sit on the tone hole. Not ideal pads but it works well on the plastic. Definitely gives it a more squishy feel though.
Thanks for the insight Zoe! Also thanks for watching!
The plastic cheap flute sounds great! Just goes to show you DONT NEED TO PAY alot for a great piece of instrument.
You’re going to laugh-I actually have this flute in blue/black. After I had right thumb surgery I couldn’t play/hold my other flute and my doctor recommended this to get back into playing while recovering from hand/wrist surgery. I felt like a child with this, but my hand therapist agreed it was better than not being able to play at all. It’s super light and I played with a cast for several weeks on this. Didn’t bother the stitches either. Definitely helped me take my mind of the reality of recovery. Great video!
It's a great ultra light flute indeed!

Me a moderately okay flute player: Hm, I think I'm pretty good!
Her: *plays the flute at 120 bpm*
Me: Ah, I was sorely mistaken.
It looks it should belong in one of those bands from Star Wars... 😜💕😂
I play The Chinese traditional Instrument the Yangqin..And I also play Piano
Good video. I do not like that elitist people who criticize and try to look down on such cheap instruments just to set a line between them and working-class people. I am sure that if instruments would be more affordable and socially accepted by the music schools, there will be more musicians most probably even better than the elistist ones with their expensive instruments.
Perfect for underwater fluting with the dolphins! Love it!!
Right?!
It's about the equivalent of playing guitar on a practice amp but I like mine so far as a beginner. Thanks for this video so that I know that the player makes most of the sound and I need to just get better. The durability makes it worth the extra money over a cheaper metal one. I think it will work for me until I get to the point where I want to start performing. Also great for camping. pretty sure the case is waterproof. You can take this thing on a boat no problem which is kind of a game changer.
Glad it was helpful!
@@flutechannel Sounding a lot better with practice.
i dont even play the flute and yet somehow already love this channel
I'm happy you enjoyed it! thanks so much for watching!
Due to a huge pile of work and since i've move from cities to cities every three months, i haven't touch my flute in a year. Hearing Telemann though i can't wait to play again, Fantaisies are such a pleasure to play.
When you said "Volume warning Turn your headphones down" I did put the volume higher😂.

I thought the plastic one sounded way better than I was expecting. I thought it would sound "cheep" but it kept a very good sound
If accidentally dropped, a metal flute will probably dent or bend some part of it, meaning it may be repairable (but could be costly), whereas dropping this flute may result in even the most minor irreparable break!
I have to admire anyone who can play an instrument. My that's why I'm disappointed that my son gave up the trumpet after high school. He had a talent I envyed
The song is No 1 in G major by Mozart (k 313) my favorite flute concerto tbh, my mom bought the music for me when I was in 7th grade😂 I could sorta play it.......
I don’t know a thing about flutes but you make the plastic Flute sound great!!
Happy you liked it Dixon!
Me, A brass player: That flute sounds too win- oh wait...
At least it doesn't sound brassy. 😂
lalaithan The shade lmao 😂
The inexpensive one actually sounds like it was louder in the video, likely due to the wider diameter. It seemed to be similar in responsiveness, which is awesome. I’ve been really curious about these instruments for my students. Thanks for doing this video.
My band director just recently managed to 3D print a mouthpiece for trumpets and hes gonna print more for other brass instruments so i might suggest this for flutes😂
Ya! A 3D printer is so useful!
in 5th grade, we got to pick out an instrument to play for 3/4 of the year. the flutes were actual metal. but i chose violin.
I immediately recognized the "tougher" one as one of the Telemann Fantasies...can't recall which one offhand.
I think it’s A minor
For a beginner, the placement of the silicon pads is great because, beyond showing where to place your fingers to hold the flute, it adds "friction" so the damn thing doesn't easily slide off. And god forbid you get sweaty hands when playing the metal flute.....
This aria from Carmen (act 3) wouah 😍 one of my favorite in the world!!
I've always kind of wanted a flute, and this doesn't seem like too bad of an option, particularly for the price tag. Would be fun to play around with while my violin gives me forlorn looks.
I’m a clarinet player, but my little sister plays flute. She got a professional flute first off and has become incredibly good at it, as my whole family is decently good at music. I can play multiple instruments (clarinet, Barry sax, ukulele, ocarina, piano, and now learning violin and hopefully flute).
The difference between the ‘ring’ you get from the $200 vs the professional flute is astronomical. There’s the angelic feel on the professional flute whilst the cheap one (although has a good sound, I’ll give it that!) doesn’t have the ring and delicate feel the expensive one has.
Tell your sister we said hi! Also thanks for watching!
I was surprised at how nice the plastic flute sounded. At the same time, I could sure tell the difference when playing the silver flute! $200 vs $10,000 though! I'm not sure the silver flute is 50 times better than the plastic one though!
That Mozart piece really brought back flashbacks to all state that I did not need
I want to learn how to play the flute but these are great tips for a stater! Thank you! I enjoyed the video very much!
It is great for playing in a smoky bar, ( not the best conditions;) I have, and knocked over my instrument stand by accident, and the flute went flying- but it still played and had no injury
Mozart flute concerto #1 in G major, classic piece
I’m also a flute player because I’m in the school band
That plastic flute be lookin like a light saber
I played bamboo flute in one evening in 2003. That very night i woke up with 3 ghost sitting around my bed. I stop playing it till today. True story.
Not a flautist, but I've been waiting to see what a pro thinks of the jFlute. The sound is totally different, but I find it really enjoyable. It has a sound that reminds me of less refined, wooden types of flutes without the inconvenience of being some crummy 8 hole bamboo recorder. I would love to hear how an entire section of them would hold up in a normal concert band.
They are actually used in school bands all around. I think if you looked around online you can find videos of them. Thanks for watching Mark!
wow you play the flute very well, you're really professional, the first song looks like the one they always put in movies in the morning. Amazing
I really need help with my flutes!!
Flute 1) This has been passed through 3 generations and is very much like an heirloom. The past 2 didn't play at all but kept as a possession but now I have played for 4 years, have secured a grade 2 and I am working towards grade 3. However, I am so incredibly clumsy and there are so so many dents in the flute. I have also made the mistake of leaving it out for weeks with no play and it bent. But, it isn't possible to straighten due to a big dent in it and there is also one key that has lost the felt underneath but that doesn't affect it. I really want to fix it because my mum suggested to trade it in but I can't do that to such a precious things but I don't have the money to buy a new one or get an extreme fix!
But then...
Flute 2) this was gifted to me by my best friend who played for a month after his dad played, but gave up so easily. He gave it me with no case, no cleaner, a broken key and a really grainy sound. It doesn't sound quite right because of its age and lack of cleanliness and protection as well as the key. I don't like the padding on this flute as they are made from silicone rubber and just feel really clumpy to me. I really don't want to hand this in as it would probably break his heart to hear that it's gone but I don't have any money to fix it and change all the padding - which is practically impossible! I may trade it but I'd have to speak to him first but please someone help me!!
What do I do???
Keep both
@@4GU5GA6 First off thanks for reading all that and replying but second, should I get them fixed because that can be a lot of money??
If you’re too tight on money, fix one and preserve the other one until you’re better off. Having multiple flutes is good because if one breaks, you got a spare. Also, fix the cheaper one first( if there even is a cheaper one) so you can save up to fix the more expensive one. Expensive flutes usually mean better quality, but as a flute player, you take what you can get.
Or you can maybe sell them to a flute fixer or something like that, and get a better flute
@@4GU5GA6 Thanks for that advice. I'll take it into consideration 😁
I can tell the difference but that is because I have hearing that my daughter says I can hear an ant crawl in the wall. It is a matter of resonance and timber due to different materials just like a silver flute sounds different than stainless steel one. Having played flute most of my life I prefer the expensive one only because it is what I am use to, but wouldn't mind playing the plastic one, I think it just takes time to get use to. I prefer wooden flute to plastic one as well. I have small hands but piano fingers so don't think the size difference will be an issue.
second piece was Peter and the Wolf!
I like that black one! It is probably for smaller hands or younger kids since it has so many things that help you on it. I wish I had that as a beginner!
It can still be for adult beginners as well. I was surprised on how it felt in the hands.
It'd be good for marching, I think. I personally like plastic one, even though it is a bit airy. Wonder how it would hold up, and now I'm considering buying this for the rest of high school so I don't damage my concert flute or ruin it any more than it already has been. Marching gets pretty rough on my flute.
For marching I think it could be a deal breaker as long as one is careful. I think its a smart buy and a less damaged flute the better. Thanks for watching btw!
For use in the hot tub. I actually took a plastic Yamaha Fife into a hot tub once and I loved the gurgling sound when it was half full of water.
The articulation is actually quite crisp! I’m not mad at it, especially for $180.
Even in person its surprisingly crisper!
I play guitar tf am I doing here
well, in the beginning i was: "i dont have ears for it, so whatever..."
switches the flute.
"im kinda proud of myself what can hear the abysmal difference XD"
the silver flute has so bouncy lows and sparkingly bright highs, amazing!
My sweaty hands absolutely destroyed my beginner flute, so I'm glad a plastic flute of decent quality exists :) Thanks for the review!
when she said guess the song that was my solo song and i lowkey cried
I do enjoy the flute. I played for 5 years.
I just switched to tenor sax and I feel as if I made a great choice.
I don’t have good embouchure for flute.
It's crazy to me that they sound exactly the same. I went back and forth between the professional and the plastic one, at the same melodies, and I honestly couldn't hear a difference.
Mozart Flute Concerto No. 1 in G Major :) (I’m not a flutist, I’m a violinist with 12 years’ experience but I accompanied a flutist playing that piece.)
There is a clear timbre difference between your pro and the plastic one... but yas to those saying for outside play...
