A pause in your Melody gives the listener time to process the energy that you just played out in your flute. Along with the pause the listener is anticipating the next Melody. Thus the enjoyment and spirituality of the Native American flute! I totally agree with you Charlie! Blessings!
Brother, I’ve printed this song out you have for us to be able to do. Thanks! I’m playing it now for one month. Now reviewing this video to see how close I am to how you are doing it. I know as you say”play it your own way”. However your interpretation is very beautiful. I always give credit to you. Thank you very much. You are an inspiration to me and I’m taking my flute on a 6 mtg hike. I feel it is anyway to further connect to the land as I walk thru it. So I have been playing and practicing extra hard on a daily basis in order to to have a level of profiency when i leave in this hike this April 15, 2024. Thanks again.
I love your rambling! Makes your videos real, not rehearsed feeling like so many others...you keep things interesting with your sense of humor too. Thanks for your videos! I have learned so much!
You are awesome. I love my flute, and I love that you are not only a flute maker and seller, but a teacher. I've sent many friends your way because they thought they could never afford a NAF. Now, they're happy, happy people. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and this song! Ramble on, Charlie!
Just visited Seminole Canyon and would have loved to have been good enough to play in the caves…however, did play “Song of the Blue Bear” while looking at 4-5000 year old pictographs!
Brother That was Awesome! Thank you for putting more than you had to.. iam a little slow sometimes, economie gets better and my body holds together I'll be in your classes!!! GOD Bless😇🙏👍
Many thanks Charlie - I’ve been enchanted with your intro from the first time I heard it. Thanks for sharing. And even though you may ramble, it’s an interesting ramble. Sometimes the best part of a journey is a side trip or a rest stop at an unexpected place. Thanks again❤️
Charlie - This is the song that got me interested in the Native American Flute. It just captivated me. If I close my eyes I can see your ancestors Roaming the land in Harmony. Thank YOu!
I agree with many commenters below - the rambling makes your videos more real and raw. Like the real experience of being in a classroom. I appreciate that habit of yours the most because I learn more about YOU that way. Thanks, Mr. Charlie!
Skills I got from Learning your flutes on my lunch breaks; got me to start learning saxophone. melody carry’s soooooo much farther than knowing how to play every note in tune starting sax. Luckily your flutes are in tune 👌.
Love it! Got one of your premium toasted flutes key of A. absolutely would like to see them again. And a high b in pine of yours. But the pine absorbs a lot of oil/wax vs the other wood seems to hold wax a lot longer it’s great 👍.
Thank you for this Charlie. And I learn alot from your ramblings my friend. Now I have to figure out where to find these 2 pages to download. Then to get a low D from ya.
The vid I've been waiting for! I've been playing/incorporating parts of that first line for at least a couple of years now...probably took me at least that long to figure it out before that....lol Your intro was what inspired me to finally take the plunge and build my own flute....thanks for sharing Charley!
@@BlueBearFlutes seriously Charlie, thank you.....I want to shake your hand some day. I won't get very deep into details here, but you've touched my life more than you could possibly know. Maybe things will get back to normal and I can catch you at Moundville this fall....I only live about an hour away.
I Printed it out. AND being a six hole flute player just made a big black dot for the hole that is "always covered" so as to reduce confusion. (On my part!) Thank you!
I would like to build my sister a flute, and would like to know how would I properly tune it? Thanks for your advice. This will be my first flute to build...🙂
Depending on where you are starting include making, I would suggest simply going over all of the flute making videos we have on my channel and picking out what works best for you. We have videos on tuning, making a flute in the key of A, G, F sharp, and so on. I have videos where I make flutes using only simple tools and so on. I'm sure you'll find one that should help!

Thank you my friend! Well said!
Thank you for your Blue Bear song, I’m 72 and want to play this tune very much. Annette Australia

I love your rambling! Makes your videos real, not rehearsed feeling like so many others...you keep things interesting with your sense of humor too. Thanks for your videos! I have learned so much!
It makes you feel like you're having a conversation with him, not being "talked to"

Thank You Charlie. I'm so lazy I didn't practice for awhile . I will push myself to learn your song.
You can do it!

THANK YOU! I am honored!
Hey Charlie, thanks for the encouragement! Learning your song. Don't be offended. I'm gutting it like a deer. But it will work.
Not offended at all my friend, rather honored!

“It is the silence between the notes that makes the music; it is the space between the bars that cages the tiger.”
