Are there good pink flutes? Lol would love that
Unicat Caticorn Guo makes a decent plastic one
The eBay sounds better
@@unicatcaticorn5340 Maybe a rose gold one?
In band, My friend bought the same pink flute you have and one day she opened her case and all the keys fell off
Mena Toda omg that is TRAGIC 😂😂😂
That comment made me laugh so much and I don't know why
😆😆😆😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂
We have the same name lol
You found a pink flute that is worse but also costs twice as much. Sounds about right. A metaphor for life.
So true, though!!!
I think I should buy a pink violin... I sound bad anyways so at least I can rip people's ears out while being all pretty.
Sybil Vane lmao 😂
Sybil Vane HAHAH
Just gotta say... YOUR NAME😍
Just bought my first fuchsia violin but not an amazon or an eBay model and it was 2400 I recommend it
Literally me lol my first violin is going to be white because I know I'll sound bad for at least the first year
you know it's a bad instrument when they include accessories that are used for another instrument lol
Lol 😅😅 yeah why the cork grease??
Its slide grease and can be used on the flute joints
@@natalievergara5191 but it's mainly used for ex: clarinets and cork grease is only used if the flute is like really old and it won't go on
TypicalFlutist I could have used that cork grease man 😂
You can use it for a flute
I can hear the amazon one sounds like this *"fFFFfFfFfFffFfFfFFfFFFFFffFffffFfF"*
Yah its playing an instrument that you whistle into
That and it sounds more like fth-fthTfh-fth-Tfh
You would be shocked to know how many times beginning band directors see Mendini instruments
Poor them ...
Yeah a Mendini was my first trumpet so sadly I had to contribute to that.... luckily I have a King horn now
Hah that's why better off to rent the instruments..
RIP beginning band directors everywhere
Mine was a selmer flute but I play French horn now and it’s a conn
Besides the f# leaking the fuchsia flute doesn't actually sound worse then the baby pink one. BUT they both kinda sound like paper compared to your beautiful Muramatsu! Yet if there isn't the Muramatsu to compare, they both sound pretty good because YOU are playing them!💖
There should be differences in sound quality otherwise we'd all walk around playing pink flutes ... But I'm still surprised how decent the pink flutes sound. Nevertheless I doubt that a beginner (wo those flutes are aimed at) would be able to produce anything near that result. Even more I think they would lose interest in flute playing after a couple of days.
It does sound worse. The ebay pink one lacks depth, the fuchsia one lacks both depth and tone.
Wich name is the last song that was playing?
Theory: these flutes don't seal well on the headjoint-body connection, so the cork grease is there to help create a seal so the flute can be played. It's not for lubrication, it's basically caulk for instruments.
Possible, but then the headjoint would slip and mess up the tuning. You never grease a flute (an exception is the joints of a bass flute, since they have cork).
angela_flute52689 - also for piccolo! the connection between the headjoint and the body takes cork grease, if the piccolo has a cork
The leaking is so bad on the amazon flute. Oh my goodness! You can really hear it.
My flute costs $180 and I don't know how to play It but I'm learning
@@avacado1170 my first flute is 1k😅
@@astridplays6023 3k
@@lauradumhart6140 😮
We can’t all be Lizzo and have a custom lacquered Muramatsu. 😂Definitely hear the difference but you sound fabulous no matter what you’re playing.
Even though the 2pink flutes are "spotty" you make them sound professional :)
The band camp anecdote had me in tears!! I haven't played my flute in years, but I recently pulled it out. Watching your videos is such a delight!
simply nailogical but... flute?
simply flutelogical
2:05 I can confirm it's not a good experience
desperate times call for desperate measures 😂
Nice vid. I could hear the difference going from the cheap flutes to your flute, especially in the depth and resonance when you used vibrato. I think a cool video idea would be doing flute "VOD" reviews. What I mean by this is listen to a video of somebody playing and give them tips and things you think they could work on and let them know what they're doing well also, etc. That would be fun to watch and good to learn from as a flute major dropout lol.
Ah u mean the roasting stuff 2set does 🤣🤣
I couldn't help but notice that your rose gold professional flute is also pink ;)
Roset828 it’s gold..
That's a reflection as the wall is pink...
I think the beautiful color overrides the leaking keys! People will be so in awe of the beautiful color that they won't even notice the bad notes! It all balances out! (I'm a little too obsessed with these videos.... HELP!)
i’m a bassoonist watching.. lol. but if a bassoonist can watch a video centered around flute and learn AND be entertained, then you’re doing something right! love your content :)
The amazon flute was definitely inferior to the ebay flute - both were really airy in the higher octaves. I thought they were quite decent for the price, but I doubt that a beginner would be able to produce a respectable tone at all. I guess the amount of effort you have to put into the intonation is much higher and so you'll be limited in the range of your playing (changing from legato to double tongueing, switching between octaves etc.). I guess the dynamics are limited, too. You did not show many dynamic changes (which is understandable. I don't think playing pink flutes gives you a lot of joy).
No idea what just said 😂 I play clarinet.
@@Kt-cn2rq I wouldn't have thought that clarinet is that different from flute - did you ever come across a superioir instrument like intermediate or for professionals? They are really pricy and a bit more tricky to use, but you will get a better intonation and a broader range of techniques with them.
The eBay flute sounded much more vibrant and easier to play than the amazon flute and of course your professional flute sounded amazing. It was kind of like comparing a couple of kitchen scullery maids to a beautiful queen.
I was given the “silver” plated mendini flute shown here as my first flute in 6th grade and instantly I experienced problems. It’s really worth a good instrument to learn on-for a long time I thought my airy tone was attributed to my embouchure, and practice was plagued with frustration. In fact it was the same problem here: leaky keys all over.
A few things to mention:
1. I love you so much and look up to you!
2. All of your videos are so helpful for me...even if they’re a bit random and fun😅
3. Collab with twoset?
4. 2:07 is such a mood haha
5. You sounded amAAAzing on all of them
*imagines you having a collection of flutes like scientists have dead insects or butterflies*
If you want a third option, you should try out the Nuvo Student Flute. The first version is available in solid hot pink, and the updated 2.0 version has the option of white with hot pink accents. I am both cheap and a hobbyist, so I bought one to learn on and it is Surprisingly Decent (TM) for a plastic flute.
I have two of them ;)
The Nuvo is also waterproof!
OMG YAS FLUTELYFE MERCH GO OFF QUEEN brb ordering them in all the colors
i’m a clarinetist.
what am i doing here?
why do i want the flutelyfe hate when i know nothing about playing a flute 💀
marty kunstlerin omg samee

Pffft I play French Horn

I relate. I’ve never played the flute in my life- yet. Here. I. Am.
Hi Katie! I picked my flute up last year after a 15-year hiatus, and I've really been enjoying watching your videos! You're inspiring me to play more.
Would you be willing to put a card/annotation into your videos for each piece's composer and title? Thank you!
The eBay pale pink one wasn’t half bad tbh especially for its price 🙂but the rose gold Muramatsu was absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Of course it’s your playing ability that makes them sound so good. Once the fuschia flute was fixed it probably wouldn’t sound too bad either for it’s price point.
I guess like most things in life we get what we pay for?!
Love your channel Katie .❤️
A big difference between your beautiful flute and the two pink ones. Yours sounded so much better. The pinks flutes are still fun 😜
Moral of this story: You, Katie, and your playing are the highlight! Like someone else said, "Anything you play would be beautiful." Your playing is amazing. But you yourself! What a great girl! (I'm almost 60 years old, so I hope I can say that!) I love your personality, confidence, and sense of humor. I love that you love music & pink! I love that's you're so whimsical and fun (flamingo raft!😅). Your videos are just plain FUN to watch! ~ Mama Luna 😃
Halo sweet Katiemy friend. This was a great video. Not easy to hear the different sounds, I think it depend a lot of the player. You can get a golden tone out of the Pink Flute. Thanks for sharing. All the best/Kjell 🎸 🎸
I got the Amazon flute it was $73 dollars and alot of the keys leaked like that! I sent them a video and also one of me playing another flute as they tried to say I just couldn't play! I never got my money back. I now have a decent flute and would never buy a cheap one again...glad to see you do this vid katie :-)
4:28 Amazon Flute
5:03 eBay Flute
5:40 Muramatsu flute.
Since the back to back comparison isn’t very helpful, I posted some time stamps to better hear the difference.
6:25, the only way you can get around it is if you get used to playing F# with the E key instead of D key (Only pressing the middle finger key as opposed to pressing the ring finger key for those of you who don’t know.)

中国系ニュジーランド人です :D フルートが大好きです(￣∀￣)
Ten years ago when I got my first flute it was deadass that amazon flute. I played it for fifth grade band lmao
Traci Pinzon I have a 300 dollar flute that is super good for its age it was my grandmas in high school so it’s well over 40 years old has some issues but still a great starter flute for mee
The difference is absolutely noticeable. That fuscia flute would make a lovely pink lamp.
I am glad I found you I play the flute and I am so glad to see new stuff about flutes.
They included the screw driver as they knew you would immediately need it to fix the leaks.
I played that EXACT Amazon flute in 8th grade band and this whole time I thought I was the reason it sounded so airy 😭
The light pink flute was much better than the hot pink one. Didn't hear a huge difference in the light pink and gold flute, but did hear some.
I love your playing style! I aspire to play like you when I'm older :')
Carmen is our marching band show theme this year. It’s awesome
I've never played before. I just got my $65 wal-mart flute and love it. I can learn how to hold it, and my fingerings. It's fun to learn. I might get a better one in a year or so.
I actually know nothing about flutes, but this taught me what a good one sounds like. With your own flute, the notes are clear and distinguishable, whereas with the cheap flutes, they kind of blur
From personal experience, they probably gave you cork grease for when the flute starts sticking a bit. Add the tiniest bit of cork grease to your connecting joints and it'll loosen it back up and make assembling and disassembling the flute much easier again
Haha I think the baby pink flute was better because it wasn't leaking so much! Also I loved the piece you played on your gold flute. It was so amazing
Me : * literally knowing nothing about blowing instruments*
Also me : yea I totally can hear a difference !
Her: has a 20,000 dollar flute
Me: has 1,000 dollar clairnet
bunky _2007 okay but same

My flute's $2000.
I love your professional performance flute 😍
Oh my god the expensive flute sounds SOOO much better, it gave me goosebumps 😱😱😱
What’s the song that she played on all three flutes? I would really like to learn it!

Thank you for the lesson, I bought my daughter the pink eBay flute, very bad experience. Your guide was so helpful, thank you for the help, I am definitely not a you tuber but you popped up first when i typed flute buying videos, Thanks again
I play flute too! And I’m a Katie! This must be destiny, subscribing now😂
I'm a Saxophonist. Is this purple flute the equivalent of dreaded Blue Amazon Saxophone?
It’s never enough to have some more pink flutes :)
TRUE
Hey Katie!! Just wanted to let you know I love your videos!!!
thank you so much!!! :')
That was the exact flute that I played on for my first 3 years. Needless to say, I was really shocked when I got my first actual flute
The notes sound so much smoother on your own flute
The Mendeni Flutes I always said we’re horrible and I don’t know if my flute is broken or not cause I’m a beginner and my band teacher blames the leakage/screech on me. It took me a while for me to learn just from the amount of times my flute broke since it’s a mendini 7 year old flute, I’m going to buy the recommended flute for a beginner on your channel and learn for my own being.
I play horn and don't know what is A good flute sounds like lmao 😂 buttttt I still love this channel
Okay this is creepy I was just talking to my mom about getting a flute and now this is in my recommendations
Google: aw yeah, its all coming together
Markus Jonas 😂
Nikola Was Here I high key feel our phones listen to us. Stuff like that happens to too much people to be a coincidence. And Google gotta be behind it
join the flute cult 😂
Yeah, Google does that.
THE fuscia pink flute had a nicer tome and botto end, if you fixed the leakage it would be really nice, Your flute sounds beautiful!
Actually I am a pianist but I love your channel and I think your flute sounds like heaven!!! 😇😍 good luck
Ooo I recognize that F# leak sound anywhere! There's an adjustment screw behind the first key below the G# spoon key that you can barely turn to fix the leak. It happens to my flute occasionally.😅 I think you turn the screw clockwise to lower the key and fix the leak.
You have to make the decision: Do I want a car or a flute??
Flutes are less expensive, smaller, and more environmentally friendly sooo...
BeaBunny Fair enough
Mine is between a phone or flute 😭
I know this is late, but can I ask what is what katie played @4:40 ? Im just curious, thank you in advance!
I have that same flute brand and it's actually quite a decent brand once you get used to it and get it adjusted properly. Mine is a regular silver one though
Note that I have another professional flute too, so even comparing them it's not too bad
That Bizet made me really happy :)
Wow! You're amazing. I have been playing for a year and I am no where near as good as you! Keep it up👍👍
Your Muramatsu flute sounded very lovely compared to the other two nicki minaj wannabees 😵 the precision when it hits each note is uhMayzing!
Can I just say as a fellow clarinet player i have never seen fingers move that fast in my life. And thats on (food)
La flûte enchantée ! Hamelin est de retour lol . Thats nice !
You could turn the bad flutes into lamps. ☺🎶😁
I haven't played in 20 years and bought a flute off of ebay to see if i could still make a sound with it. I'm having my flute teacher try it out but it's not too bad on scales. The challenge for me will be reading music.

Hey Katie! I was wondering what song you use in your intro? I love it so much, thanks!
it's the allegretto from Godard's suite of three pieces :)
katieflute thank you so much!
i had to learn that for my band exam last year :)
The darker pink flutes sound makes me maddd
I had such a bad experience with mendini. I was only in 6th grade and had no idea what I was buying!!
This girl in my band has the same brand flute as the amazon one and she swears up and down it’s an expensive brand and it’s super nice. I undoubtedly laugh every time it breaks and she has to repair it and use someone else’s 🤦🏻♀️😂
I have had my muramatsu since 1979. Bought from principal flutist of a major symphony orchestra. I like it, but have played other headjoints I prefer more.
I’ve noticed that these Chinese alibaba instruments have a huge difference in quality. Some are almost decent instruments but others are ready to fall apart right out of the box. You never know what you are going to get. When you get a cheap starter instrument from a reputable manufacturer you know it’s going to be set up decently

I think it's pretty obvious that your normal flute is much better than the others, but I have to agree that the ebay flute is better than the amazon flute. The leaking on that one is very audible.
The fuchsia one definitely sounds much leakier, as you said. The professional one sounds a little better than the others on the soft notes, but still sounds fairly harsh on the loud high notes, though maybe there's no way around that with flutes.
What was the song she was playing at 4:45? Amazing playing!!
Video idea,
make your own flute orchestra with recorded & edited video of you playing each part
(plus maybe the creation process of said video)
A Pink flute is so beautiful
What is the piece of music she repeatedly played to demonstrate the flutes called? I can't remember the name and it's so frustrating Lol
Carmen Fantasy - near the end about 10 minutes in
Artemis Lorain thanks!

what’s the song at 4:28 plssss
Funny experiment when you Shazam all three flutes playing the Carmen only her personal flute comes up with the result lol

I NEED to know what piece you played in this!!
Carmen Fantasy - near the end about 10 minutes into it
Artemis Lorain omg you’re a lifesaver thank you so much I’ve been dying to get sheet music for this 😂
Honestly the Amazon sounded better than the Ebay one even with the leaks. it wasn't a huge difference but the Amazon sounded not as muffled at times like the Ebay one.
My flute is already so bad that I’m considering getting the light pink one. Mine leaks on sooo many notes
I’m saving up for a better flute but like,,, pink
I don't know what's wrong with my ears but all three flutes sound the same to me 😂
Cuz she's pro hcjdkdnfb
I got the same flute but it was just the regular nickel plated one. Unfortunately, it was already getting tarnished after a few months and eventually I wasn't even able to play F, F sharp, G, and A flat in the second octave. But, I recently got a Geminhardt 2sp flute from the Flute Center of New York and it's coming in soon :D
