Fix your Flute high notes: Undertone Harmonics
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ธ.ค. 2023
- Are your high notes thin, muffled from rolling in, or super sharp? Let's build some new habits to approach these high notes from a place that's rooted and grounded.
Undertone harmonics are great exercise to help your upper register be warmer, richer, easier to play, and better in tune!
Why do I tighten up?? The body remembers what we teach it. Chances are, at some point you tightened up to muscle your way to those high notes. Maybe a teacher or band director hollered at you, which made you roll in to fix pitch or tense up even more.
It takes a little bit of time to rebuild habits. But it's worth it! Add this calm and relaxed exercise to your daily warm-up, and you'll have great love of high notes in no time.

Handsome flutist❤
Priceless.
Great video, Dr. A!! We needed this at 118…..big time!!!
Yes! Glad it's useful in your band. Let me know what other videos might be helpful.
Harmonics has helped me out a lot! Great video.
Yes! Traditional harmonics are also great ( as long as we don't practice tensing up just to reach higher harmonics)! Have you tried this variation before?
Yes, I have. The great thing about practicing harmonics, it has taught me to relax. @@PracticeFlute
Thank you. I just went and tried these...it was strangely...pleasant? Also, Dr. Matthew, why is the mouthpiece on your headjoint black?
Playing the flute should be enjoyable, So I'm glad these feel pleasant.
The lip plate on that flute is made of granadilla wood.
Interesting
I'm all about flipping our problems upside down for a different approach to build new habits. :) Thanks for calling it interesting and now weird.
My neighbors are not going to like this! lol
They will once your upper register feels soooo warm and relaxed.
Matthew,
What model and make is your Flute(s)?
This is a Tomasi S10 with Grenadilla lip.
This is Not an easy exercise. Still worth it though... ❤
The bigger the challenge, the bigger the reward. Right?
