- Dora Wang of the New Canadian Global Music Orchestra gives us an introductory lesson to the bamboo flute. She goes over embouchure, a simple scale, how to change your airstream to play in different octaves, and explains the different key flutes.
Dora started her musical journey with piano, but soon took on a variety of Chinese folk music instruments, including the bamboo flute (dizi). She also plays xiao and hulusi. When she came to Canada, she established an all-female mini-orchestra called "Melody of Bamboo Music".

lmaooo your username :)
Sometimes the same instruments can sound different it depends on how u play
@@taylorotaku8501 why does it sometimes not make a sound when i blow the way they show in the video?? PLEASE help..frustating and depressing..
I basically unlocked this sound by covering the reed with a reed protector. It sounds similarly to this.
Hi where from can I get this flute
im willing to learn this because of Yiling Patriach
Same lmao😂
I’m surprised to see so much of the MXTX/MDZS/TGCF fandom here!! The novels need more recognition for real
I wanted to learn how to play a bamboo flute but first i wanted to hear how it sounded before hand that you very much
I literally bought one because of the untamed 🤣
Same im about to learn how to play and then ill play it in the middle of the woods pretending to be wei ying 🥸✌️
r u learning to play dizi, let's learn together
Omg its so hard to even get a sound out lmao
Update: yall I can actually make noise from it as of like a moth ago lol
ME TOO
Oh i. Um.. Because of Wei Wuxian too😂
By bamboo flute is it a Dizi?
That look like one so yeah
Yeah that's a dizi.
Yes, that’s the way to say it in Chinese, or if you want to search it up that way.
nice prof pic :)
Absolutely loved the video! It really helped me learn more, thanks! I’d love to see her play some songs!
Very informative demonstration, appreciate the instrument-keys overview and demonstrations of tone!
Had my flute for a year now and I'll be damned if I cant make a sound. Im here for help. Hopefully Your vids can help me. I just dont know what I am doing wrong but i am determined to learn as I love the sound. I suffer from mental disfunctions and every time I hear these flutes, it just calms me and makes me feel, well normal.
I am getting one this week, I love all nature of flutes, from African traditional flutes to Asian.
Here I also learned how to use the bamboo flute hahah because of the unteamed drama and also because of the playing of oppa wuji I also want to play the unteamed theme song
I'm very addicted and I'm interested in playing oppa wuji So I want to play with my bamboo flute and play the unteamed song😁😅😻😻
that outfit is on point! (it is a beautiful outfit)
It reminds me of a flute and a recorder combined. ;-; Which are basically the same thing, all part of ‘flute’ or woodwind.
Although I’m here because of mommy Wei Wuxian.. I actually play the modern C Flute and I wanted to try out the Dizi Flute! It seems rather complicated tho.. considering all the key ranges
I just got one and cant wait to learn to play it. The sound just touchs my soul🥰
Thanks for the video, it's really helping me to play my grandma's bamboo flute😉
We're so happy Dora's video was helpful to you!
@@cbcmusic Hi, I'm Steve Angueira. I have purchased a Chinese Bamboo Flute and I wanted to know if Mrs. Dora Wong can please teach me?
I would like to see how to wrap the chinese medicine thing around the flute properly. I don't know how to set it up
What song did you play? I love it! I want to learn it!😄
See indian bamboo flute lessons, you will find many things
HAHA everyone came here because of the untamed but I just came here because I play the Western flute and I'm Chinese.... but the untamed is so good
It takes a shitton of muscle memory and thought about your breath to make that little wooden hole sound beautiful. I have to move my mouth around on it and test my breath just to make it sound nice and cant even play any songs yet.
Beautiful lady and awesome skils.
I know this is a very basic question but are there any "tips" you can provide for a beginner trying to make sound come out? Twice I have picked up my new Dizi and I made a sound but then I lost the sound and have not been able to figure out what I did right. Do I need to blow hard, soft, purse my lips, at an angle? Is it essential for the donkey skin to be installed? I am sure I will figure it out eventually but if there is any advice to be given I sure would be grateful to hear it. I will keep looking. I LOVE the sound of a Dizi. I have a left-handed BASS G which I am trying to learn how to play.
I have a flute made out of water pipes maybe you can listen to it I'm still learning
I've buy bamboo flute and want learning it because The untamed 💕
Same😅
I always run out of air lmao how do you get better at it😂
Try that circular breathing that Colin Stetson does!
@@cbcmusic Hi, does Dora Wang has any videos on learning how to play the Chinese Bamboo Flute?
Its 2024 and im here bc of the untamed bro😂
Steel lungs! Wow. The music is so eccentric and beautiful. I'm obsessed!
I get myself stuck in low notes, any suggestions?
You've probably figured it out by now, but air speed and slight rolling of flute to make sure you still produce sound, practice so your muscles remember exactly where you put it.
The Yiling Patriarch 🙇🏻♀️
Hi, which key of dizi flute is easiest for a beginner?
I heard C and D are good to begin. There is a video for that if you need : th-cam.com/video/budBfwKU864/w-d-xo.html
I have always heard G.
g and f are the smallest, but d is used for most songs so i recommend that
I did not expect so many people to come here because of mdzs its UNBELIEAVEABLE (NOT DISSING CAUSE I LOVE MDZS)
I came here for drawing reference on how to properly draw someone playing a bamboo flute (thats still not he video's original purpose but ok)
What would you recommend for a silver flutist like me in which bamboo flute to buy? I play the silver flute for like 6 years and i want to try bamboo this time.
That demo she played in the beginning, what style of music is that called? Just Chinese folk? How do I get into that style of music? Any key artists or songs of that genre I should check out?
The song she played in the beginning is
"The New Sheperd's Song"
Ana marie Lacar thanks for reply. Appreciate that
Que máximo ouvir 🎉🇧🇷👍🤣
I need to buy one of these flutes to play every morning just before i put my hair up like Dragon Ball Z with gel
Go for it the cheapest ones cost like 5 dollars
There's a 3rd octave 😯where did that come from. I can only get 2 and my second one sounds like someone trod on a cat.
tighten lips and fast air, also need to be extremely focused and powerful like an arrow
I love your music, do you have a video on how to position your lips to play this bombions flute?
🤣
How hard can it be?
I guess I'll find out. Got one coming in the mail.
I watched The untamed and i bought the black flute that wwx used AND I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO USE IT!!
whats the song called at 2:06 ?
姑苏行 th-cam.com/video/0hmCp66Sadk/w-d-xo.html
You are beautifful i like it
it has very nice specific and unique sound
i am not trying to offend anybody but i personally prefer indian classical flute or bansuri. it is much more soothing. you guys should also check it out.
Which flute u r using???
The fist key is g key and the last one is c key
oh i get where you going with this here
I am a long stroke D key,
I like how this was uploaded on my 9th birthday
Me with my flute all lost😭
I come to the comment section for help, and everyone just wants to talk about the untamed tribe from Star Wars. Very annoying, but also confusing as I played that story line 20 times and never had anything to do with flutes.
Are are the fingerings the same no matter what key the flute is in ? Sit on a chair to practice because the air intake is more then regular breathing and you may black as you are not used to the different air intake. Your body will adjust eventually.
Why isn’t my flute making any noise when I blow ?
you need to cover the membrane hole with something like bamboo film or tape
@@1003willy Thank you for that but, I eventually just gave up on trying to use the flute lol 😅 I could never make sound come from it, and all the tutorial videos I watched didn’t really do me any justice. I believe if I actually want to play the flute properly in the future I’ll need to get some sort of teaching lessons.
can you play all 12 notes? I'm confused
É BR?
A flauta toca a msm nota só w grave meio e agudo. É cm na partitura se olhar já vai sacar
I don't think so, they are usually tuned to a key from what I understand
@@Anonomusturd you can use half note by convering slightly the holes
you can use half note by convering slightly the holes
So are the fingerings the same as a normal metal flute you play in a high school band?
Okay, what is "The Untamed" thing you're all talking about? I came to re-learn my flute lol
First I have to make the sound. I have difficulty placing the lips, but I will not give up.
I wonder song that she played because I want to learn it
Played Ghost of Tsushima. Now I want to learn the flute. 🤷♂️
I am Indian futist. I want to play China flute.How I will get.your finger is nice and speed .
Even i want 2 learn it
im pretty sure its cz im 6 years old, but nobody gonna laugh about the fact she said "there are 6 fingering holes"?
Salut j'ai achete un flute chinoise traditionell. [professional bambou dizi flûte traditionnelle chinoise]
-- Je connains comment travaile!?
Je pense le changer
Stp montre moi comment l'utiliser...
HI there, Ni hao :) I bought my first dizi flute and it is A flute. I play saxophone and I am trying to play this flute now but it doesnt sound cool like when you play it Can you please make introduction how to play Lower notes because it seams that my flute doesnt have Octave but only one tone line and I can only produce 7 tones...thanks a lot, xie xie and thanks for this upload.
Im not experienced in playing the Dizi but im pretty sure to get the 2 octaves you have to change the way you blow into the flute. that is my hunch because whenever i look at the finger charts for the separate octaves they are the same.
She said that to play the higher notes you have to blow stronger and faster. If I tell you my tips based on the western traverse flute which may be similar, you have six or seven notes in average blow, then blow stronger for another set and again blow even stronger for the third set of notes. There can be also some changes in finger positions but the point is in different strength in blowing.
How is she going up notes or Octives without moving her fingers. I’m only playing 7 notes can someone help
Hello , this is not easy to understand on beginning, everything is difficult in bamboo transversal flutes as dizi(chinese) bansuri(indian) which i play, native sound is the lowest octave , if you blow stronger, you will be able to play second octave and often middle of third again stronger, but except if you have a professional grade flute, second and third will not be so pure.
You've probably figured this out already but for anyone else struggling this is all about increasing the speed of the air being blown across the whole. Essentially you are blowing stronger but people often mistake this just for pushing out more air. To make a fast air speed you need to tighten the whole in your lips, you can do this by pushing your lips forward. Also you need to push with your diaphragm, so pull your stomach in.
day 1 of learning bamboo flute I just bought it yayy
What kind of flute did she say she uses to play the smooth songs? I couldn't make it out. Around the 2:00 mark.
C key flute, plays C major scale
Thx for vídeo! Have more video for continue? I need know more. I have problems with controller of air. I am lost with this. XD with Key C is more complicated i need more Air and Key D i playing with more facility
Can you please also tell us which holes are applicable to which sound? On the video is not visible well this. F.e. to the sound of A which holes we have to cover and then for the whole octave. (I'm playing on classic/silver flute and on quena, as well).
Can you also show us closer video of each sounds from the top and indicate it... from the video is not clear, unfortunately 😕 otherwise the play is great 👍 😊
On my bamboo flute i dont have a film hole for some reason.
where can I buy one of these
Amazon
Is this music copyright free😅
is there a video for key e?
Yeah but nothing in front of Indian style flute music
Came here because of the untamed ,wei wuxian
yea untamed brought me here as well😓
I'm here because of master oogway accend
The song is New Sheperd Song
her embouchure is almost not visible, is it because of the camera angle or it is supposed to be that small?
for small dizi flute like the G key she is holding, a tight embouchure is used, for larger dizi flutes, do not need too tight embouchure, if you blow an octave higher you need to tighten the embouchure too
Hello, the flute holes need to be aligned? My flute is with holes 1 centimeter misaligned because at the time of assembly, my flute caught and I can not turn it
Maicon Sander depending on the flute maker .
anybody who is learning to play dizi, let's learn together
me
came here because of untamed 🤩
i bought one bec of genshin impact, sue me
Why do we need to cover the 2nd hole with the skin?
because it is supposed to vibrate so it produces sound it's like a reed for other instruments. If it isn't there it makes like a windy sound as i found out the hard way when I first got one.
To produce sound. It will just sound like air, if you do not cover the membrane hole with a dimo or tape.
I have to same flute as her
Did you find the video helpful?
Yes
Where to purchase this flute?
What is written on the top part of the dizi?
Poem
I have a homemade flute I bought from Guatemala, and literally only the seller knows how to play it!
This is my first time having one and idk how to use,blow, and hold it properly. Mine doesn't have sound. I'm so stupid. I need help😅
But how do i blow in flute? 😭
My Music Exam mark +2
What is the difference of DIZI in C and G ?
I think higher sound and lower sound?
Nice
How to play sharp (#) or flat (b) notes on dizi?
you need to know the dizi fingering chart, there you can see the combination of fingering to play sharp or flat, i personally use half hole techniques but it may not be suitable and easy to use
what the first song name ??
me mandarias notas de un par de canciones bonitas faciles para aprender a tocar C, tengo una C
Me too.... just ordered a bamboo flute. All because of Untamed!
Sound so beautiful. I wish I know how to play flute.

@@amogus7277 I wish I can learn but when it comes to music I'm little slow Learner.

It is very possible it could be the placement of the membrane. That has to be put on so you can barely see horizontal lines. Here is link or search on youtube for Paste Membrane on a Chinese Bamboo Flute th-cam.com/video/0h7RFZveJ-8/w-d-xo.html
