I am at the last year of the music college.This advices are really but really very important..Most important is “thinking and knowing what you are playing”…Practicing scales and arpeggious,and at least maj-min distances (for example in Gmaj ; g-b-a-c-b-d-c-e-d-f#) are very important.If you do this for all your scales everydays then you can play easily and memorize almost every pieces wrote for the flute.Don’t forget to breath ;)
Im scared I stopped playing the flute for 3 month for personal reason and I have a middle school audition to join the symphonic band and I haven’t done my major scales in 3 mouth.The audition is in 16 days I don’t know what to doooo😭😭😭😭
This video is saving my life! I’m auditioning for flute choir, and it’s a given that I have to play my scales. Hopefully, these tips will help me improve on playing them.😅❤️
Hi just join and what a sound may I ask what kind of flute do you have my flute is new but I feel as if I have to squeeze the keys in order to play the note which is hard I hope to invest in a flute I do not have force the notes out to make the sound and to play beautiful me and softly creating music of my own to my family and to my friends
Oh dear. it does sound like you may need to take your flute in for a service! That is probably a good place to start and then maybe consider getting a new instrument. I play a Muramatsu Gx and really love it so much! But there are plenty of really great instruments to choose from. I really recommend the Flute Center of New York if you are in the USA. If you use my code "PRACTICE" here you can even get a few extra perks 😉 hope you can fix your flute soon!
Omg I was doing awesome before then somehow two days later I’m like beginner and my flute exam is tomorrow I don’t know what happened! And it’s literally my grade 7 exam. Maybe cause I did like six hours that day but I literally had a breakdown
My least favorite scales is the C Major scale 😭. Especially the higher octave. I have an extra key on my flute that makes the high C easier to get out, but it throws of my rhythm😔
For the scales, the flats and sharps arent added to the notes, so do we just have to change them ourselves(adding sharps and flats)? Edit: I am aware of the notes to change but not sure if I'm looking at a wrong scale sheet because the sharps/flats dont show
I had practice 7.5 days practice soild seven days. I Had got 76% in exam grade 1 theory exams. I had listened to sister tell me not play flute and not practice it not played off.
Can you be a $2/mo patreon to have access to those exercises you mention in the video? Or is it for zoom access patreons? Thank you for all the inspiration and tips 😊
How am I supposed to know what the notes are.. or what major or minor even means or like what are the flats and sharps and whatt?- I don't knowww and how am I supposed to just automatically know what the arpeggios and thirds things are?- aaaaaaaaaaa why do I just ✨suck✨

This is really helpful I have an exam next week and it really helps thank you!
I'm used to the good old "do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do" scales from my singing days, so that is a major help to me in addition to these tips!
Thank you so much for making scales fun, interesting and you are an inspiration!
Tatiana, thank for your generosity in sharing these lessons! You’re equal parts skilled instructor and delightful human being!
Thank you 🙏 that is very kind of you to say!
This is massively helpful, thank you so much

A really good video with great ideas that will help me to learn and practice my scales. Thank you!
Thank you this was good I was able to play it easily one thing though please tune your flute it was little sharp cheers
Relative minor is 3 semi-tones down the major. Easy!

What do you think of the Trevor Wye flute book 1-6???
Thank you, very helpful.
Very helpful experience sharing. Thank you!
:) Pleasure! I have certainly practiced enough scales in my life!
My least favorite scales is the C Major scale 😭. Especially the higher octave. I have an extra key on my flute that makes the high C easier to get out, but it throws of my rhythm😔
Such good ideas. Thank you.
Wow wonderful lesson thank you
this would be really helpful if u actually showed us which keys u put ur fingers on to play the note(s)!
Plenty of videos for pure beginners (like me) teaching this. Including it here would make the vid too long.
Thank you!
What scale book do you recommend?
Flute Technical work from AMEB that’s like a exam book but it’s good
For the scales, the flats and sharps arent added to the notes, so do we just have to change them ourselves(adding sharps and flats)?
Edit: I am aware of the notes to change but not sure if I'm looking at a wrong scale sheet because the sharps/flats dont show
to anyone that is having that same problem: its likely the key signature which you have to look at
Awesome video !!!
where can I find scale cards?
Do you have any tips for remembering the relative minor scales ?
Hi - I count down three including semitones so D major - D,Dflat,C = B. B is the minor of D major
Relative minor is 3 semi-tones down the major.
And add the sharped 7th to the key signature!
I had practice 7.5 days practice soild seven days. I Had got 76% in exam grade 1 theory exams.
I had listened to sister tell me not play flute and not practice it not played off.
Seems like you had visited south india at the time of making this video
awesome Vedio
Thank you :)
Wtf I don't get any of this AHAH I'm hopeless 😭

Go check out our scales series on TH-cam…I explain each scale step by step! It can be VERY confusing at first!

I don't play flute, it's just a fascinating instrument.
Indeed. It's a very very unique instrument you should really try it. I love the flute and I have only been playing for a year🤣
Sam Samson I agree, bought one a couple of weeks ago, I love it more than I thought I would.
@@divahoof Indeed its a great instrument and I've been playing for about 1 year and a half
It's a beautiful instrument I've played for abou 6 years
It is. Maybe you should try it. You might be surprised how much you can get out of one of the amazon glory flutes for around $100.
Nice.....
❤❤❤

Do you also play the piccolo? I think the piccolo is too high and damaging to our ears. Stay with the flute.
