I need to thank u so much I am a beginner and I was about to quit because I was missing the hole of the flute and I watched 5 videos and none of them helped after watching this I feel more confident about playing the flute thank u so much
Wow, thank you so much for the kind words! I hope some of the tips help you out :))
It was my first day of flute today I was so embarrassed because the teacher was privately helping me cause I couldn’t get it but haha this helped a lot thanks
Glad to hear this helped, thank you
👊
Same im bad
Same! :D I wasn't picking it up at first I got it 2 times but the first one I got it then lost it then got it back!
I didn’t get private lessons but during band I didn’t do anything because I didn’t know how to blow
Oml thank you! I’m joining the school band and I’m playing the flute and this helped soooo much!
Same
🙏✨
Me too lol
This has helped soooo much you have no idea! I’ve always been interested in learning to play the flute and I’ve just recently got one and this has answered so many questions thank you!
Awesome! Glad this helped you 🙏
Hey I'm In The 8th Grade Starting In My High School Band Playing The Flute Your Flute Lesson Really Help Me All I Was Blowing Air😳 I Hear A Whistle Thank You So Much 😌✨
Same 😭
So glad to hear this helped you 💜🙏✨
omg thank you so much I'm learning flute and it is so hard to learn but now I know what I need to do and I finally got a clean noise instead of a wind noise from the flute
Thank you, glad to hear it helped ^_^
This was the third video I watched on how to get sound on the flute headjoint, and the first time I was able to get the note. Well done, Lauren!
OMG THANK YOU!!!! I have tried to make the sound for hours trying vid after vid and yours helped me continue using the flute.
I got me a flute for Christmas. I have been practicing with youtube videos and I'm doing very well 😁
Me too, could you recommend me any good tutorial?
Your smiles captivated me to pursue my practice... thank you
omg thank you for this video. I played the flute for 8 years and I always had a very "unclean" noise because I was breathing from my lungs instead of my stomach. my professor never corrected me for this and I never knew!!!! I wish you were my teacher back then, I have to start again from scratch....
When you say breathing from your stomach do you mean flexing the abdominal muscles to push the air out more concentrated and faster?
Thank you so much ! I have seen other videos before but this one is the best 🙏🏼
Loved the close mouth shots :)
It’s beautiful to share your personal tips for beginners... thanks again
Thank you!! Glad it helped :))
Love you so much for the tip ❤️ ,spent nearly an hour but couldn’t find the perfect place now i can play❤️
Best video example, I have seen on how to do this. Thank you very much Lauren!
This is excellent! Thank you!!
9mg you have no idea how much I have been struggling with the flute in band this year. This has helped me so SO much, I really wanted to thank you.
Very Good ! I am a clarinet and saxophone player and have just got a flute for Christmas. This is extremely useful. Thank you.
This was awesome. Thank you
oh my goodness, tysm!! i just bought a flute today and watched this tutorial before my band class ( tomorrow morning ) and oml this helped me sooo much! like, i can actually blow in to the flute clearly without any air!!
easy thanks Lauren!
girl you are SO HELPFUL TYSMMN I got a flute from my school and we're doing a trip if you learn an instrument so I picked up the flute and you just saved my life💁🏾
What a great and detailed video, glad that I’ve found your channel. Thanks so much for explaining all this 😊🙏
this was so helpful.thank you.
Marvelous, great teaching
Thank you! Very good instructions. Just started today.
Great lesson! Thanks :)
The part about putting the wide side of flute lip to between your bottom lip and chin really helped to make a sound easily. I was starting to think my lips were broken or the flute is faulty. Excellent teaching! Thanks.
I played years ago and this put me back on track thx
Thank you Lauren..your the best❤😊
Thank You!! The lip description helped me a lot!!
This video helped me so much! I've been watching tutorials all afternoon and this one was the one that gave me the best sound! I loved that "rice" idiom, it really helped me. The others showed me how to do it, but sometimes I need a real description of how it should feel. So thanks :)
Thank you! ^_^
after watching a ton of embouchure vids (probally a ton and a half) i can say with absolute certainty, that the picture at (6:38) helped immensely and once i saw it... everything made sense and i GOT IT:) Kudos to Lauren!
Amazing, so glad to hear this, congrats 🎉🥂🙌🙌
Very good thank you. You explained in detail with examples.
OMG you helped me, started playing Irish Flute yesterday (keyless flute) you are beautiful
(I mean that in a respectful way) out of all the online teachers you are the only one that I viewed that said 1/3 of lip over the hole, that it was helped me get the consistent sound! now I can play a major D scale in 1 day THanks!
Yay!!! Thank you for the kind message and glad some of this helped you :)
Appreciate all the helpful videos, Lauren. I'm picking up the flute right now and they've been a good resource. Thanks.
🙏✨
i just love your tutorial # helped me alot love you
This helped SOOOO much!!!
Really helpful thanks
Hi! I'm in fifth grade and joining band!!! Thank you so so so much! I just wanted you to acknowledge that you helped a little ten year old 😊♥️
So glad to hear! Glad this was helpful to you! ^_^
juligar63jr , wow lucky, my school starts in 7th grade
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Thank youuu!
thank you so so much, i just joined the school band and i just got my flute and you helped me so much!!!
I'm a saxplayer trying to get a good sound on the flute. One thing I think is hard is not sounding tense when playing high notes. I can hit them, but they are not relaxed and really nice to listen to. Another thing is playing soft or loud. All my notes except from the really low ones are pretty loud. Thx for these videos!
You make it so clear thanks so much ha
Thank you Lauren!I really enjoyed this video Miss Lauren.
Thank you!
Thank you so much, very useful
Very nice
Really helpful
Thank you godbless you that video really helped
the fan idea was amazing tysm
Trying to pick up flute for jazz, very nice video!
This helped alot, thank you
Thanks!
OMG!!!! You are the best at making videos about flutes.
This helped a lot.
thank you so much :)
Ohhhh thank you! This really helped my 9-year-old who is in band!
Oh my gosh, thank you for explaining the embouchure so well! Everywhere else I looked explained it so briefly and I was getting a little frustrated at the inconsistency in sound XD
I am so happy that I saw this vídeo thanks
very information for bigners . superb........
thx the close up helped!
Your the best thanks
wow thanks a lol madam.... your video was very useful to me. thanks god bless u
Hi, I really enjoyed watching you, especially as I'm about to begin playing the flute. Furthermore you look so happy while explaining, which makes me happy, too :)
Aww, thank you for the comment! Stay tuned as I am planning to do some more beginner tutorials in the coming weeks ;D
Finally someone actually explains the headjoint hole and playing position! thanks - I bought a very poorly maintained flute for $45 which has been played somehow as a lefthanded flute :-D not the way it is made and you explain it
OMG THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH YOU ARE AMLIFE SAVER
I use to play the clarinet but I decided to switch to the flute today. I could press the right keys without my teacher telling/showing me but I just have a problem. I can't blow into the head joint. After watching this video, I tried it on my flute and I made the right sounds. So I just wanted to say Thank You!
Great!! Glad it helped.Thanks for the comment :)
Hey thanks :) I need to play an imaginary flute for drama and this helped me loads :) :) bet you never heard that before LOL PS. You are also a lovely teacher, made me laugh so much just watching you teach :) especially the pout bit, LOL total cuteness. All the best with your flute stuff :)
thanks for teach
you explained it very very well
Thank you!
This is the best explanation I have found so far! Thank you for the close ups too, really helped!
As a clarinet player, the embouchure was very difficult to get at first. This video really helped and I got the correct sound (terrible tone ngl) in just under an hour and a half! This was very helpful. Thanks!

This is an excellent, informative video. Last night I won an eBay auction for a used Selmer Aristocrat flute. I've played clarinets (and string bass, but that's irrelevant to the point I'm making here), but took up a whole range of brass instruments over the past couple years. I'm getting a flute because it's played differently from the other instruments. However, I have a slight overbite, so blowing at the angle taught here comes naturally to me, and I've noticed that in some ways playing a flute is more similar to playing brass than it does to reed instruments, in two ways: 1) nothing (such as a reed) is added to the metal hardware of the instrument, and 2) the position of the lips is somewhat similar, although looser with the flute because air must pass between the lips rather than causing them to vibrate. During one lesson on a trombone, I was told to "spit out" a note...and I heard a somewhat similar mention earlier in this video.
BTW, in another video that dealt with helping children choose a musical instrument, there was a comment that someone having a "teardrop" shaped upper lip is not a good candidate for playing a flute--I suspect the airstream would be split in the middle to be diverted to either side.
FWIW, I also have a Chinese suona, which 'counts' as a double-reed instrument.
you helped me so much! Im not trying to be rude in any shape or form but I was watching Mrselfridge and he just couldn't help me in any way. I went to many others trying to seek help and I came across you and I did as u said and it worked. I cant thank you enough
Wow, thanks!! Glad some of this was helpful thank you ^__^
Thanks mam 🙂🙂god always happy😊😊
Thank you, i can finally make my first noise on the flute. XD
Than you for this vidoe my child was getting discouraged watching video after video but we watched your video and boom she got it!! Thank you!!!
You helped me soooo much thx u
Thank you! Glad it was helpful ^_^
im joing the school band and this works thank u so much girl
You're welcome glad it was helpful! 🙌
very nice tutorial. I'm learning to play my father's flute during my mid-life crisis 😂😂😂 he loved Jethro Tull
Amazing how you sound good while spilling air
Lauren ur lesson on the aperture was helpful. Still I need to focus the air at that one angle and not spill like u said. I just understood the lip shape . I need to practice the blowing . I am not yet getting it right.
An old man gàve this flute to a friend of mine before his death and it has been lying in my house for 3 years. I've always wanted to learn to play this flute for the glory of God. But I have no money for classes. I am a poor 50yr old woman. Your lessons on fingering and notes would be very helpful dear. You are a blessed young woman and a musical teacher.
Keep me posted if you can and if u have time, Lauren. Your lessons were helpful than some of the others I've seen so far.
God bless you.
THANK.YOU.
I can't do it for the life of me
SmgThrack I play the flute for band and I make a sound and then I don't lol
Keep trying goodluck
lmao same
Biggay I learned how to blow it for like 3 hours dang I suck
@@denia4115 Same T-T
Thank you so much I have tried searching for an explanation for why I cant play the flute and I realized i was not keeping my stream of air thin enough. now i can Attempt to learn Thank you so much!!! :D
✨🙏
I was able to produce my first few notes on a daegeum thanks 😊 to this video.
Yay 🙌
Thank You. Madam. Very very Nice 👍👍👌👌👌
I really like the way you speak
Hi this is my first year playing the flute! I hear a little whistle but also very airy! But this did help! Any more tips!
Dammmmmn, you won't believe how much happy I'm today. After so many disappointments I'm finally able to blow flute correctly. I tried many times before and left practicing flute, but today I again watched your video and boom.
In India most of the flutes don't have lip plates that's why I came to your channel.
Thanks and love from India 🌟
Same dude
ty
Great lesson. Do you have a link to the practice armature with the fan blades?
OMG IT WORKED. OMG OMG OMG OMG
I have a daughter, 14, plays the flute in school band but she doesnt want to play at home or around anyone. Any ideas on how I can help build her confidence while playing in front of family?
I had a problem blowing through the mouth piece but I knew what to do but the problem was that I was supposed to put my chin on it. Thank you😊
Hi Lauren . How do you play Eb on the flute?
Благодарю
Hey Lauren, I'm a middle schooler who once played the clarinet and since it's summer I bought a piccolo online.... I never played the flute so I have no idea and I'm having trouble making a sound
