When you want to show off your flute playing skills at the pool party.
Paganini by the pool
The Flute Channel correction as a violinist I prefer calling Paganini the devil that gives people carpel tunnel
omg lizzo could do that
Thou hast cometh with a proper joke. Thou shalt hee hee to thous proper joke
@@Amber-ns5tg Thou == you, in context of verb 'be'.
... Thou art a common knave, twit!
Thy == your
... Thy intentions wert subtle, cockatrice.
thee == you as object
... I cast thee pearls, and ye become a pig.
Thine = possessive your
... Thine nose grows intoa a Snout, verily!
And so on. So,
"Thou hast uttered a proper jape, knave. Thou shalt hee-haw properly, thus." would've been a bit better
Everyone calls you a nerd in high school, then they look up to you when you are a professional.
Lol yes. You're too Busy practising to have a regular childhood but that's the price you pay.
You’re going to laugh-I actually have this flute in blue/black. After I had right thumb surgery I couldn’t play/hold my other flute and my doctor recommended this to get back into playing while recovering from hand/wrist surgery. I felt like a child with this, but my hand therapist agreed it was better than not being able to play at all. It’s super light and I played with a cast for several weeks on this. Didn’t bother the stitches either. Definitely helped me take my mind of the reality of recovery. Great video!
It's a great ultra light flute indeed!
I've always kind of wanted a flute, and this doesn't seem like too bad of an option, particularly for the price tag. Would be fun to play around with while my violin gives me forlorn looks.
I immediately recognized the "tougher" one as one of the Telemann Fantasies...can't recall which one offhand.
I think it’s A minor
I actually stumbled upon this product online and i was so excited to find this video! I might get it😎
The first piece is Mozart's Flute Concerto 1.
Omg who edits these videos? So humorous and perfectly timed haha!
Thank you for uploading, I really would love to learn flute soon
Happy you like it! I do with another editor we do it together!
Omg the first piece I played it as my solo my high school sophomore year which was last year! ( G concert by mozart)
first tune is mozart concerto in g
Me when she played Paganini on the plastic flute: WOW, such talent!
Thanks Angela! It was super fun playing on this flute!
Hey, idea. If you put a plastic hose on the end of the mouthpiece adapter, you could theoretically play the flute holding it like a clarinet or any other position you like.
Why though? Meh, cuz you can.
There are mouthpieces that make it possible to play like a clarinet. I forget what they are called but a quick google search would remedy that.
omg, i never even knew there was a flute like that
the gray and black one
pretty cool, right?
Hello Amelie do you have a certain time that you were considering doing a FCNY review on Wooden flutes/headjoints. I'd love to hear how they compare to the way your silver Flute sounds?
We have, but haven't gotten around to it. Hopefully in November will have a chance to do it.
@@flutechannel Hey my professor sent out a studio message about a Flute day Festival happening near me in Savannah, Georgia on November 23rd!! This will be my first ever Flute Convention that I will be going to, if you happen to be able to review any Wooden flutes in a video by then,
Could you recommend a few of the ones that you think will be interesting for me to look for and try out at the convention??
You actually played Paganini at the end 😃. I still prefer the violin.
Yes, per your test, the flute sounds fine for an entry level instrument. But Bach sounds much better on your professional instrument.. definitely. The price really determines the quality of an instrument, whether is a watch, a writing instrument like Montlanc or a musical instrument like your flute. Awesome content. I found your channel by mistake while listening Brandenburg concerto and Jean-Pierre Rampal playing Bach Sonata #1 . Really liked your content . Cheers from Houston, Texas .
Does anybody know what piece she is playing at 5:19 (in the shower)? It is soo beautiful
I can’t get my flute to make a sound for the life of me😕😕
It’s an Armstrong one UwU
Might need a trip to the repair shop. Sometime it could be very tiny adjustments.
You're an awesome flutist!!! The flute? Plastic? Silver? Well, whatever!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 😍
When you've got it, flutist!
Which is the piece of the 4:24 minute?
I have a $75 metal flute, LOL but it's just for fooling around with
when you’re rushing in the morning and you forgot to practice so you just play your flute in the shower
(that’s oddly specific and I can’t relate)
Good for marching band. Sometimes it rains or its so humid
900
winnie schrader as your profile pic tho
Relatable
Sadly I relate
The plastic one honestly sounded better than I thought it would sound
The plastic flute has surprisingly nice tone quality, but I don’t love the plastic-y buzz in the lower register. I also don’t like the second mouthpiece, sounds too much like a whistle, not a flute. Overall, I think it would be a great flute for outside gigs or for when your primary flute is in the shop.
Yup I think so too! Next is to try it in a concert hall!
I’m just gonna drop this here... I played one of these not too long ago. While I was definitely surprised that certain aspects were better than I was expecting... I would probably NEVER perform on one. The harmonic series just doesn’t come through on it. :(
Or for students to take home if a school doesn't allow them to take home a school owned instrument
Phoenix Farris i think theres a flute in my throat
(I don’t even remember making this comment um)
Interestingly enough, I think that a penny whistle sounds even more distinct than a flute, lol.
To be honest, she makes any cheap flute sound so good! ._.
Awww thanks.
But can she make expensive flute sound bad? No! I could.
I got a 87$ flute on Amazon that works amazing! It’s better then my friends 400 dollar flute that she rented!
It’s me Amanda liiiiink please !
Susato piccolo and Irish whistles have a similar tone . The plastic seems to sound great in flutes and whistles at a tiny price
The bathroom makes the flute sound better.
Grell Sutcliff my band director said “it soUndS better in the bathrooM “‘ and then he told us a story of how he played a piano in the bathroom 😂! Funny story’s
Bathrooms always have awesome harmonics!
True bro
It suddenly becomes surround sound dolby digital
It does that so singing too
I should buy that flute for football games for when it just starts down pouring
*SO I CAN STILL FREAKING PLAYYYYY*
Totally! Might be a good idea! Thanks for watching btw Ariana.
Playing in the rain is the worst!
I play sousaphone, so our valves freeze as soon as water hits them. In my band we all get ponchos, but sousaphones have to put them over our bells like a tent.
Honestly though 😂
Play that sad titanic music when it rains 🤣
I don’t know what it’s called... 😅
Ya so you don’t ruin your flipping instrument
I wish I had the plastic flute for when I was starting out. Also it would be great for marching
Right I think it could be a great marching flute. It can still project like a metal flute.
Use that for marching and when you have competition or parade use it xd
Zerodanteyuy I know right!
@@canadaisnotreal7513 nope. I hate seeing good instruments getting destroyed because of the matching band. I don't even know why marching band is still a thing. One of my friends tripped and fell on there flute. They busted there lip and broke there flute. Didn't help it was 100 and they didn't drink enough water.
Canada Is Not Real it would also be handy in certain weather like she said, what with humidity and all. Not necessarily the weight of it. Honestly the whole “cuz your flute is sooo heavy” joke is getting old lol
Water resistant, wish I knew that existed when I marched in the rain.
I know, we've all done it if your in marching band.
Me: where was this 20 years ago!?
Serenade I know right
*koff* 40 years ago... but who's counting?
That moment when your main instrument is already mostly water resistant. Clarinet gang
@@NormalLunkclarinet gang!
I love these new (relatively) inexpensive instruments that people are inventing and manufacturing. A lot of people simply do not realize that for a lot of people, even $180 for a plastic flute involves a huge sacrifice. These instruments are often the only way that a poor or working-class child can be given a chance to learn instrumental music, including classical. And they often don't sound bad; anyone who claims "golden ears," I'd love to do a double-blind test on them. The only thing I've ever been able to hear easily is conical versus cylindrical bore and light woods versus very dense hardwoods or other materials (pearwood versus mopane/ABW/delrin).
Totally! The innovation is amazing! We actually have people who've tried the golden ear test and will have a video out soon, the results are astounding!
@@flutechannel I'm very pumped for the results!!
So true. I'm on $5 an hour an haven't played my flute (gift) in years as I was homeless at one point and still can't afford $200 to service the thing, though I think you can get a Jupiter flute or something else silver plated for under $100.
Not always an option but in many cases schools will provide instruments either free (with sign out) or low cost rentals either from the school or a shop. Granted it was some years ago late 80's or early 90's, had an inexpensive rental clarinet. A little dinged up but it was wood rather than plastic. Maybe a better alternative to putting out even 180-200 on a beginner instrument especially if you don't even know if the kid will stick with it.
It is also great for people who suffer metal (Ni, Ag) allergy and can't afford a gold liplate. Like myself who had to give up flute playing because of that :((
Does flute playin in the shower work the same way as singing in the shower?
Sure it does! :D
The Flute Channel can you play the saxophone in the showerZ
@@naomimorales4163 no the pads would get wet.
David Rice Oh okay thanks :D
It does, I can confirm xD
It sounds like a wooden flute. It’s missing the ringing sound that metal flutes have but it also sounds really warm and airy. Honestly sounds WAY better than I was expecting.

It didn't sound good until you played in the shower. Has no real resonance. The sound dies immediately.
The professional flute is 10,000x better.
But for a student it's a good deal
trevorpinnocky but a flute isn’t a resonant instrument. No matter how hard I flick mine with my finger, it has no sustain. Lol. I think the chamber of air is what resonates and not the flute itself. This is why the material doesn’t impact the sound like shape / bore / embouchure cut.
trevorpinnocky I think that’s what they call hearing with your eyes-like saying yellow gold sounds warmer.
@@gwgtaylor material does have impact to the sound colour, but as you said not as much as embouchure cut and obviously the flutist him/herself. Metal flutes generally would sound quite similar one to another, but for example wooden flute tone colour is quite different.
Yup it can, but more in the the extreme sides like high register notes etc.
1x better for each dollar

I used to play flute, but had to stop because of a movement disorder. The Nuvo enables me to play again, as it's much lighter than My solid silver flute and I don't have to spend 30 minutes cleaning it after playing for only 10 minutes. It may not be the same, but it's better than nothing for me
I'm currently teaching myself woodwinds as a form of music therapy. I remembered how much joy I got out of playing the recorder as a child, and thought I might pick it up again after a traumatic event. I played oboe in school, but I want ready to spend $600+ on a new oboe. My friend suggested I try the fife, and that sent me down the road to wanting a flute, but again, I'm looking at the prices. This seems like a viable option, and I appreciate your comment about being able to use a lighter flute because I also have some hand strength/mobility issues. ❤
I hope you are enjoying your music, and thank you for this, a year later 😊
*When you're early and you don't even know what to say-*
Glad your speechless! Hope you like it!

Last time I was that early...
Being a tubist when u said the weight can be a struggle I made the most scrunched up face ever, lol
Masterchief 1 🤣🤣🤣 I started in French Horn and was much too heavy to march. I switched to flute.
I’m a tubist too #TubaGang
As a flutist I envy you, but I have joint & wrist problems, worsened with how I hold my instrument
Thank you, but why did you comment on this video at 1:00 am 😂
I get that tuba is heavy and the flute really isn’t. But DANG, my wrist starts to ache and it hurts a lot. I guess flute players mix that up with saying “flute is heavy!” when really it isn’t. It just hurts having your wrist in one spot for such a long time to the point where it starts to cramp!

Silver flute +1
Silver flute
Silver of course. But im curious if the type of silver used in a flute affects the sound (i.e. sterling silver 92.5, vs other silver types with more or less silver content)
The Flute Channel silver flute
Undoubtedly, the silver flute! But as you pointed out, for a early learner who might need something a bit sturdier, or for those playing in potentially humid/wet conditions, the Nuvo is quite passable. But gosh, the width! It would be like doubling on my alto, I'd think, but much lighter!
Musical instruments you can bring to the beach:
In the 90's: ukulele, bamboo flute, nylon strings guitar and marimba. Everything else is prone to rust.
In 2019: all the above, plus flute (this one), saxophone(Jsax) and Clarinet (clarineo) NUVO could change the culture of seaside music forever!
Who’s dragging a huge marimba on the beach 😂😂
@@davids.pumpkins2215 They don't have to... Marimbas can be assembled on site, dismantled and assembled again if they need to use it somewhere else. If they were low on budget, they could make one from bamboo and just burn them when they're finished.
My point is, those musical instruments are what shaped the whole music genre of the people who lived by the sea.
Now that there are plastic instruments, they can make more elaborate tunes than there was before.
Muhammad Zulkhairi Mohd Nasir no i understood that it was just a really funny mental image, as someone who drags them around regularly it was just a funny thought 😂
Bring the keyboard
@@sigure.inspiration It's the 90's. Except the Yamaha SHS series, all the keyboards are still bulky and they cost even more than a marimba. But today portable keyboards are very common, so it would make sense.
I also forgot to mention steelpans/steeldrums. They are a staple of seaside music, especially in the Caribbean.
Don't know the first tune, but the second one is definitely Despacito.

Sound held up surprisingly well compared to your high-end flute. One thing I did notice was the keys were pretty noisy on the plastic flute. I imagine the plastic flute would be great for kids in marching bands playing in the rain. :D

The plastic cheap flute sounds great! Just goes to show you DONT NEED TO PAY alot for a great piece of instrument.
When the band director doesn’t let woodwinds put their instruments away even though it’s raining
Totally.
Good video. I do not like that elitist people who criticize and try to look down on such cheap instruments just to set a line between them and working-class people. I am sure that if instruments would be more affordable and socially accepted by the music schools, there will be more musicians most probably even better than the elistist ones with their expensive instruments.

The Bird from Peter and the Wolf, Prokofiev
Fantasia #2 1st movement, Telemann

woodwindboi Thank you 💕
THANK UU
I think it sounds more like a wooden flute. It doesn't "ring" like a metal one, not surprisingly. The biggest difference in tone seems to be at the very top end. The Nuvo sounds airier.
Dampens sound more, metal and glass or possibly harder plastic, would probably produce more "metalic" sound since it would be more of a hard stop for air. In fact flute made of sth with infinite density, completely without weight would sound most like it should but then it would be sine generator. Also listening to this online has no sense as you each have different speakers in laptops. Some can't reflect all audible range quite as good as some others. In fact most complaints are about characteristics of your own speakers.

@@flutechannel wait, you watch 2Set?
@@vaaaaaaliiii of course!
Try plastic piano
That's because you can't fit the violin in the shower when the piano is already in it.
I bought the metallic blue version for myself three months ago as a birthday present. I had a metal student flute that I bought years ago to try to learn, but I put it down for a while and when I picked it back up it was in such poor condition that it was unplayable. The Nuvo flute was an affordable option for me, and while I was a bit skeptical at first, for a casual self-taught adult learner like me who is just a hobbyist, it has been perfect. I don't care about the sound quality because I'm just playing for myself! Three months in and I've already far surpassed where I ever got with my metal flute. I figure that once I outgrow it, I will spring for an inexpensive silver student model, but this is great for me for now. Also love the potential for children or for like high school marching bands that often play outside. The silicone padding and the sizing that is kind for beginners is also a great boon - I'm not in the greatest shape of my life and I am a small gal with short arms, so trying to hold up a metal flute long enough to practice well is a little tougher for me. Okay, huge paragraph over, suffice to say I'm happy to see the Nuvo flute getting more exposure lately because I really love the idea behind it :)
Super glad it worked out anna!

Obviously because you are looking for something simpler and less challenging than the triangle. 😁
I've been considering getting a Nuvo for a couple years. My band does some parades and an outdoor concert in the summer and rain is always a worry. With this, I could play in the rain and not worry about ruining my good Pearl. It also costs less than the repair estimate for my old Artley (my former outdoor flute but right now it's not playable).
I like how you dont bash the less expensive or even cheap instruments, most people do.
I'm a pianist -- to my ears the plastic flute has a surprisingly very nice sound. I expected to hate it, but I really don't. Maybe some differences, especially in extreme range, but for $180 this seems like a very good 'first flute'. Again -- I'm a pianist, but to my ears it sounds quite nice. Thanks for sharing.

Im in beginner band, our band director is teaching finger placements on the whole flute ,also i never knew plastic flutes existed, i don’t know why xD
Moody KitKat omgggg welcome to the band world!!! I love the flute good luck!
I'm an Organist from Germany and i would say, that i've a good ear to hear the difference. The cheaper flute is more 'spitting', what is needable for baroque music. Your expensive flute is more soft and does not have this range of 'overtones', which allows to play more romantic pieces. That's what i mean. Maybe my english is not that good to explain it...
I was expecting it to be more of a muted sound than it was (as opposed to a bright sound from a metal flute). It sounded surprisingly good, but more importantly, I didn’t hear any leakage, and it seemed to have great ease of play.
The piece that you played is called telemann fantasía no.2
I'm a beginner and got this flute for Christmas. I'm really having trouble with the middle octave (worst note being middle E) but everyone else seems to talk about those low notes and those high notes, nobody talks about the second octave. My flute book even said that it's the easiest for most beginners. Having tried it out, do you think it could be the flute or is it me? If it's me, do you have any tips? Thank you, I love your channel
wow that's a huge difference
Crazy, right?! Thanks for watching!
Fluting in the shower 🤣. That's dedication!
Thanks! Tell your friends!
First song is Motzart's concerto no. 1 in G major. I've been working on that piece on and off since I started playing again as an adult; after not playing for 15+ years, because my daughter decided to start playing too, and I wanted to play with her.
If you played an instrument throughout your formative years, depending on how long you played, it is as the saying goes "it's like riding a bike".
Bravo ,,but i prefer listen celebre song on test.....excuse me i m french,,not good english...thanks
Huh, when I read "plastic flute" in the title I was expecting something horrible, but this looks like really good design, with the padding and light weight etc. And for my amateur ears the sound was okay too. Lookes like ideal for learning the instrument.
Do you know that it's a dream for majority of people in the world , like me , to be able to buy that 200 $ one , let alone the expensive ones ?!!🙄☹️
Ha she should’ve played my heart will go on on that plastic flute
Coming soon perhaps! Love that song! Thanks for watching btw!
The middle range sounds okay but i hear a lot of air in the upper and lower range. And noisey keys. What did you think of the other lip plate? And i wonder how tuning is
Tuning was surprisingly easy. Other mouth piece is for smaller flutist who need a little guidance. I should that at the end of the video and you should hear the difference between the two of them pretty clearly. Hope that helps.
@@flutechannel i saw you play with the other lip plate but how did you like it? Would it be helpful for beginners or would it cause problems down the road?
@@TracyKMainwaring Its really for short use maybe a few weeks max. But I wouldn't use it for teaching long term with a new student. You can just jump in with the default lip plate.

The „cheap“ flute looks so beautiful
This barely relates to the video because it is with her accent, but I could tell she was French, checked the channel about section “lessons offered in French and English” but her accent, certain phrases, and pronunciations clues me into something else, a French Canadian accent, so I checked some of the social media links, sure enough the twitter location states Canada. The easiest French Canadian identifier is the “you know”. I also don’t want to sound rude to anybody from Quebec, but comparing Quebec french accents when speaking English to France French accents when speaking English, the Quebec accent sounds a little more “hill billy” if that makes sense. I like the difference between a French Canadian accent and a French accent from France, it’s neat to hear!
My skin chemistry eats up metal. My flutes always look like they have been dipped in acid. Can’t wear jewelry either. This plastic flute...humm. I’m not a pro. Just a former band student who loves her flute.
You would love this flute then!
A waterproof flute would be quite cool to have! Just a side question regarding a different flute: What are your thoughts on Gemeinhardt's 3OB-BLK ?
We've always wanted to review it. Never tried it though. I would give the FCNY a call and see if they have it.
@@flutechannel I own one an I think it's a really great flute. The professional I have that repairs it said he was amazed at the low price I got for a quality product. I'm pretty sure I got it for way cheaper than the FCNY sells it for as well.
@@matthewgelderman4881 Wow!
I was surprised at how nice the plastic flute sounded. At the same time, I could sure tell the difference when playing the silver flute! $200 vs $10,000 though! I'm not sure the silver flute is 50 times better than the plastic one though!
These plastic instruments have one great advantage: You can leave them somewhere in your room, on a chair, on the bed and occasionally grab them to play a few notes.
You don't have to be afraid that an expensive instrument might be damaged. In this way I live with several plastic recorders.
This way you practise a lot more as if you would do, being forced to unbox and assemble your instrument every time.
I have my flute from jr high for this purpose, i keep it assembled and laying around all day for incase I want to play. I tried to sell it once, but the pawn shop would only give me something like 30cad for it.
It is no so much the instrument but the artist playing it which is all the difference. Ego and selfish pride is the reason for purchasing the more expensive instruments.
Wow this makes me want a plastic flute.... and I don’t play flute 🤣 Well not in the past 15 years anyhow
Watching you play the flute in the shower was fun! Thanks for the information.
