Thank you! There is precious little Dizi instruction in English and this is very helpful. I wasted a lot of effort trying to blow across and not down. Ignore the negative comments.....this is just what a brand new player needs if they are going to learn on their own.
I plan on getting one soon and I've been playing the western flute for about 7 years now. I'm glad I came here and learned not to blow across like I normally would haha
my dizi was abandoned for a year cuz I thought I couldn't play it or was broken, but thanks to you now I was able to do it! I can already make sound, thank you very much!
Dizi is a beautiful instrument, unfortunately there is a very limited amount of information about learning the dizi in English. This video helped a lot. Actually i thought the instrument was broken at first haha. Thank you very much.
He's played instruments with mouthpieces. This is my first time trying to play an instrument that does not have a mouthpiece. Your advice was incredibly helpful, thank you!
You are a genius! I recently decided to learn how to play this beautiful instrument and I noticed immediately how difficult it was to simply make a sound. With your instructions I'm able to consistently make sound. I also learned that the sound mine makes is completely normal. I thought I put on the dimo too poorly or I somehow broke the flute or it came broken. I was happy to learn that it is normal. Thank you so much!
I just recently (2 days ago) got the Dizi, and I just couldn't get the grip of playing a tone from all the other videos I watched. And after watching your video, I was actually able to play it!! I've never been this euphoric. Thank you so, so much!
My dizi arrived today and immediately started playing after I got home from work, this video really helped me cuz I was able to make a sound within like 10 minutes? Great video!!! And you've got beautiful flutes, greetings from the Netherlands
OMG THIS WAS SO HELPFUL I GOT IT IN MY FIRST DAY BY WATCHING THIS!! WHEN I MADE A SOUND I WAS JUMPING AROUND LIKE THE LITTLE KID I AM XD THANKS SO MUCH
@@PaulChin20 PLEASE HELP..I know yiu said I could use scotch tape instesd ofnthe membrane paper..but when I put scotch tape on top of the remaining bit of membrane paper it doesbt sound grainy or full..should i just use scotch tape..one piece or two??
@@PaulChin20 Ok thank you so much for answering. I'll try and let you know. Do you know why the membrane I got disintegrated sp quickly. It only lasted like a week and I put like two pieces sometimes.
@@PaulChin20 PLEASE HELP..when i put just one piece it sounds too airy and thin and not the characteristic grainy scratchy sound..WHY??!? So frustrating..should I put two pieces .hope you can please PLEASE help.
I watched this and I was able to make a sound just now. im on my 2nd day asa beginner. I made a sound which means my flute is not broken hahaha 😂.But I can't perfect it yet
i have been trying for 30 minutes and i can't get any sound, does it make sound without the membrane? maybe i put the membrane wrong? i do exactly as in the video but it doesn't sound at all.
Great, after watching so many videos and trying to produce a decent sound on my newly bought Dizi, I found your video and here it is, I am beginning to play! Thank you so much!
You, sir, are amazing. I watched so many videos about making a sound with my Dizi, and didn't get much success until I saw this. Thank you so so so much!
This is the best video I've found about how to make a sound on the dizi. Watched a few other ones but nobody could explain it and show it as good as you. Was able to make a sound within 1 min after watching the video. I'm not consistent yet but at least i know how to make a sound and now i just need to keep practicing and become more consistent at it.
Hi I just ordered a Chinese flute from China last week. This is my first time time to practice playing it. I consider you my teacher thanks for uploading your videos it’s really amazing.
So glad I found your site. I just received my Dizi and really enjoy learning from you. You explain it clearly and slowly. Just what I need. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much, Paul Chin. I just got my Dizi today & I watched 2 other videos about how to make a sound and still couldn't make a sound.. but after watching one minute of your video I finally made a sound! Your instructions were very clear and helpful! I will be practising to this video. :)
After watching this video I was able to produce sound from my dizi for the first time. I am so happy. Thank you. Thank you so much. I always thought there must be something wrong with my flute or me but I did it. That hollow beautiful voice came from my flute. MY FLUTE
The moment you said the right way I made a sound. This was actually really helpful since I've been trying to blow the dizi like how I would with a normal flute. Thanks!
Thanks Paul, you teach so well. My mom left many dizi behind after she recently passed away. So I am trying one out tonight. I could not make any sound until I watched your video. Your instructions are very helpful.
One of the best instructional videos I have ever seen! If you follow Mr. Chin's instructions, your dizi will produce a beautiful tone! Thank you so much!
Oh my god. It took me fifteen minutes, but thanks to your help, I made a sound, and in two hours I did part of the melody to My Heart Will Go On. Bless you, good sir.
Just got my dizi a few days ago and practicing while watching your video has helped tremendously. I am having trouble with the air flow, but I know practice makes progress and just taking little steps will help me😊Thank you so much!
Congrats on your new dizi! I am so excited and happy for you. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves that the joy in living is not in reaching a goal, but the joy is in the process itself. The learning and sharing itself - is joyful and fun. The end is never reached - it is just a direction. Just relax and enjoy your dizi and your life...
Super helpful! Between your video and another person's I was able to play correctly. You and the other gentleman are the only ones that I've found that gp step by step as opposed to very vague instructions. Thank you again for this!
Sir, thank you so much for this video! I received my first dizi today. Knowing absolutely nothing about playing instruments, I am already able to make a more or less decent sound, all six notes! Making any sound at all was the hardest part, and your video helped tremendously.
I have NEVER touched a wind instrument (besides a Kazoo LOL), so this was extremely helpful!!! you explained the mouth shape and placement very clearly and thanks to your tips, i made a proper sound!! thank you🙏🏼😊
I get my new dizi today and when I tried to play I find out that I can't, disappointed I thought it was broken, then I find this video and try and now it make it sound at least for a second, I'm very excited now, thank you very much for this video!!
Thank you so much :D I still can't do all the notes while blowing the flute yet, but I think it's a matter of practice now since I can at least make a sound 😅 I'm really grateful for this video. You are an amazing person for helping others like this. Wish you the best 🙏🏼
thanks so much. best tutorial out there, it's also amazing that you mention the membrane or tape needs to be tight not stuck on with a depression. i've almost made a full note
I got my dizi today and after assembling it I tried to blow it...with no luck I almost returned it thinking it's broken...after watching this guess whose making dizi noise all over😂thank you so much.
Ah, as soon as you showed how to place the blowhole directly between the lips and then roll down, I managed to finally get a good sound! Thank you, I'm looking forward to practicing over time.
Thank you for this wonderful playlist. I have received a bamboo floury by a wonderful father I thailand. I have been blowing it and trying to do things on my own as to gain experience on the controls. I have now adventures out for teachers online as I have ample experience in what I have taught myself. I am honored to have come across this page. This video is great thank you again. One day I will master this flute and I will play for you
Got my Dizi yesterday and couldn't make any sound right away but after watching your video I did it in a few minutes! I've been learning to play a tin-whistle for almost a year and thought Dizi would be easier for me but now I realise how wrong I was:D Thank you for such a clear explanation! Hope I can play this wonderful instrument well enough eventually.
This video is very useful for beginner like me. I try to play the dizi but it is not easy. I search for how to play the dizi. There are many good clips but they are Chinese. I don't understand Chinese. I am glad to find this one.
omg I have been watching different videos and trying to play my dizi for an hour or so😖 was gonna give up and try tomorrow but I chanced upon your video and just blew once and it worked! Thanks so much!
OH MY GOD so thank youuu!!! After a while I did it. Although it wasn't that perfect but the sound was so nice. I jumped like a kid in the middle of the night haha:)))) Thank you for your video, it was helpful.
i did it just now , and its work at the first attempt . at first i thought it just funny and weird when u said it like that but now its work perfectly , thank u for the instruction
Здравствуйте! Ваш урок просто потрясающий, я уже почти отчаялась в попытках издать хоть какой-нибудь звук. Ваше видео очень помогло, безмерная благодарность!❤
This video was so much easier especially when u put the paper in front of you to get a better view of the air flow i got my flute a few months ago and i decided i should put it to use the first video i seen was confusing so i looked for another video and this helped a lot!! :D
Has it gotten easier for you? I'm on day 2 and I managed to get a sound out of it maybe 3 or 4 times but then I lose the position and nothing comes out! so aggravating :(
Being left handed wanted to learn a pleasant sounding musical instrument where that isn't a problem plus one easy to carry around. Chose a "G" Key Dizi that has arrived today. Following these steps of yours and mirror imaging what you are doing left handed am finding not a problem and very helpful. Many thanks Paul. :)
i've been blowing a lot and i thought it's broken 🤣i just got it today and when i watch your tutorial i finally can make a sound~ i will practice hard! thank you!!
I can make sound straight away as soon as I saw your method of teaching 😘☺️🙏👍 you are good. But the sound I made is not consistent. And my lips slide out of alignment and the tone disappeared and I lost the sound. Even with persistence I can't get the tune to be consistent . Is there a technique to keep your lips in the right position to keep the tune going. 🙏
Yes, you put your lips covering the blow hole and then rotate the dizi away until the blow hole faces upwards. When you blow, some of the air enters the blow hole whilst some goes across. This splitting of the air produces the sound. With practice, it becomes easier.
@@PaulChin20 thanks it works but when I play the scale when I get up to the Alto,2,3 the sound disappeared. I have to reposition my lips to try again ,the tone starts and then stops
thank you! this is super helpful. i was able to make a sound right away. i’m using a Filipino bamboo flute which is very similar. thank you very much for this instructional. i will continue to practice.
Thank you so much for this one. I thought my Dizi was of poor quality so I got one then another and now third one is on its way from China. After watching your video I could make a sound with one of them but its not steady. My question is why are these stuffed near mouthpiece, i took the stuffing out. Shall I stuff them again??
@@aaqibrehman6983 The body of the dizi is a hollow cylinder with. One end (nearer the blow hole) needs to be closed and the other end needs to be opened. Hope that helps.
You videos will be very helpful for me. I'm a slow learner, so making the correct sounds for me is a little hard. Cause I can hear a second type of sound when I blow in.
Thanks for viewing the videos. The second sound you hear is one octave higher. Try adjusting the size of your lip opening and blow slower - to get the lower octave.
I am the only one who want's to play the dizi only beacuse i want to learn to play ''Wu Ji'' from the untamed?!😂 BTW thank you so much for this video!! It was so helpful!!!💖🙏
OMG THANK YOU!! I’ve finally made a sound it was lame but I’m finally not just blowing air and fainting 😂 seriously thank you! I’ve been watching videos for more than 5 hours 😭
Thank you for your clear and easily understood instructions. Some other man on you tube is so full of words that after so many that bring the viewer any closer to wisdom . I thank you sincerely and will leave a respectful coment unlike those I'd left for the wordy gentleman I spoke of. If you read those coments you will be shocked that my sense of humor is so punishing ,but then also you would know my sincerity when taking time to thank you . So thank you ,thank you ,thank you. .Masterful Wisdom Simplefied for the simple.
Thank you! There is precious little Dizi instruction in English and this is very helpful. I wasted a lot of effort trying to blow across and not down. Ignore the negative comments.....this is just what a brand new player needs if they are going to learn on their own.
Thank you for the kind comments. May you enjoy your dizi and may it bring great happiness and peace to you!
Yeah exactly. I didn't realize you don't blow entirely across either.
As someone who used to play Western transverse flute, I spent SO long trying to blow across too. This video makes everything clear.
I plan on getting one soon and I've been playing the western flute for about 7 years now. I'm glad I came here and learned not to blow across like I normally would haha
@@phoenixwing5133 is flute hard to learn? Im afraid itll be too discouraging nd frustrating?
Oh wow the minute you explained the lips movement I managed to blow correctly lol. Awesome thank you!
This is the best tutorial I've watched; I was actually able to make a flute sound, but I already forgot how I did it. Thank you so much.
my dizi was abandoned for a year cuz I thought I couldn't play it or was broken, but thanks to you now I was able to do it! I can already make sound, thank you very much!

@@Malibaby2u Welcome Zyelle!
thank you! this is super helpful. i was able to make a sound right away. i’m using a Filipino bamboo flute which is very similar. thank you very much for this instructional. i will continue to practice.
Thank you so much for this one. I thought my Dizi was of poor quality so I got one then another and now third one is on its way from China. After watching your video I could make a sound with one of them but its not steady. My question is why are these stuffed near mouthpiece, i took the stuffing out. Shall I stuff them again??
There is a hole next to the blow hole. It needs to be covered. You could use dimo, or, a cellophane tape to cover it.
@@PaulChin20 thank you I covered that hole but I was talking about inside the bamboo. The inside was stuffed.
@@aaqibrehman6983 The body of the dizi is a hollow cylinder with. One end (nearer the blow hole) needs to be closed and the other end needs to be opened. Hope that helps.
@@PaulChin20 oh thank you so I need to stuff it so that one end is closed. I have both ends unblocked.
@@aaqibrehman6983 Yes, Aaqib. You need to close the hole at one end. Enjoy your dizi.
OH MY GOODNESS IT WORKED I'M SO HAPPY!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
Dear Paul, Sensai, Your video is five years old. I hope you are alive and well and enjoying every moment.
I am! Thanks!
Do you know what size is best for a beginner?
If you have no preference, then buy the D dizi. It is just the right length for beginners - and the pitch is not too high like the G dizi.
@@PaulChin20 thank you
@@bullymaguireneedsyourprimo6581 Welcome Venti!
You videos will be very helpful for me. I'm a slow learner, so making the correct sounds for me is a little hard. Cause I can hear a second type of sound when I blow in.
Thanks for viewing the videos. The second sound you hear is one octave higher. Try adjusting the size of your lip opening and blow slower - to get the lower octave.
This video is very helpful, thank you so much for making this video! 😊

You are most welcome. I'm so happy for you. Thanks for watching my videos!
Thank you for your clear and easily understood instructions. Some other man on you tube is so full of words that after so many that bring the viewer any closer to wisdom . I thank you sincerely and will leave a respectful coment unlike those I'd left for the wordy gentleman I spoke of. If you read those coments you will be shocked that my sense of humor is so punishing ,but then also you would know my sincerity when taking time to thank you . So thank you ,thank you ,thank you. .Masterful Wisdom Simplefied for the simple.
Thank you for watching my videos Josh. Enjoy your dizi.
