pov: your doing begginers band at your school and your playing flute and cant make a sound
edit: I can play hot cross buns now
Same but my mom got me a flute cause I said I wanted to learn the bass 💀
Lol I’m borrowing my sisters flute
I have no clue how to use it
LMFAO BYE
LMAO
Emily, many years ago when I was still young and a student, a friend let me borrow her silver flute for a while, she did not play. I caught onto it very quickly because I play several other instruments. I took the flute often into the forest to play and to my amazement I saw deer being attracted to the sound and come very close. Then I tried the same with horses, playing the flute up on the ridge that separates the Bay Area in Berkeley California from the different landscape and the horse ranches of the back country. Standing by the fences on the ridge with my flute at least a dozen horses would come up from the valley below and stand very close. I felt like a pied piper for hoofed animals, such as deer and horses.
Wow incredible story! Thanks for sharing!
Woah
*Even i can't do that*
Thank but who is Emily😅
@@ritahmar2018 idk maybe the girl in the video
@@ritahmar2018 The very beginning of the video starts with hi my name is Amelie 🤓🤩
As an alto and tenor saxophonist learning flute to prove a point to a flautist who hates me, this is extremely helpful.
Same here, but I hate the flutist and play the violin 😅
What am I doing here? I have a major exam tomorrow. And I don't even own a flute.
Same here, my last semester and I'm watching a useless video when I have exams
Thank you for my first flute lesson! When I was a boy, I wanted to play flute and wasn’t allowed. Now as a grown man, I’m getting to do it myself!
why werent you allowed to?
@@-God_IS_Real- Good question! I had a mother who was very controlling for no reason and decided I should play something like guitar instead. Now I play them both! Happy playing :)
@@Clintthecoolguy Nice! I play saxophone right now, I also wanna play clarinet and flute
@@-God_IS_Real- Go for it! You should have good breath control already :)
Same! Was not allowed to learn to play music and was forced to study as a child, now as a grown woman I’m planning to learn to play flute
My guitars burnt up in a fire, so I bought a flute. Flute burnt up in a house fire . Now my brother gave me another flute. Now its game on. No more fires gonna stop me
You guys need to work on not setting ur house on fire 😅
@kathysteph932
They were just playing some hot tunes and WHOOOSH! 🔥
Went from picking up my new flute for the first time to being a master in 14 minutes flat. Thank You!

My saxophone! Oh, no!
What is the price of your flute madam
In middle school band, they made me oil my keys! 😲
Channels like this are one of the few redeeming qualities of youtube
Mighty kind of you Isaac!
I used to play the flute when I was in college and stopped right after I graduated. Now, I'm trying to relearn everything. Kinda forgot the everything since it's been so long. Thank you for the tutorial. It was very helpful!
My pleasure kat!
This is why I am here too! For me it was finishing after high school and that was a long time ago!
I played in middle and high school and was pretty good, not bragging, just telling it like it is/was. Unfortunately, I didn’t have a flute for years after graduating, so my ability to play diminished. Finally, got a flute and was able to play at a beginner level. Now, I am trying to relearn and regain my ability to play well. I will be using this site! Thank you!
I stopped in 2011, so trying to relearn again as well.
I used to play the flute when I studied at Music School. I graduated two years ago. Now I wanna relearn the flute.
HUGE TIP FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS
I'm a complete beginner (just got my flute 45 minutes ago) and something I had trouble with is making a sound. I struggled for quite a while until I played around with the angle. I was angling the lip plate so it was at a 90/80 degree angle and I could only get tiny sounds. But then I put the lip plate flush with my lips (basically kiss the lip plate and then pull it slightly back so your lips aren't touching it) and that makes it world's easier
Did you buy a beginners flute or a normal one?
You arose the sleeping flute with your kiss ! How is the romance going on these days ?
My issue is I can’t stop whistling
Thank you so much I can finally do it
i still can't do it. :(
I have a concert tomorrow and i'm watching every single tutorial to do my best, wish me luck!
I was gifted a very expensive flute so I want to learn! I’m actually a percussionist lol.
Good Rhythm is always great to have! Welcome to the community and take a look at all of my videos and the playlist may guide you a little bit more! Happy practicing!
SAMEEE (on the learning flute and percussionist part) my friend let me borrow their flute tho
I am in a similar position,A drummer and percussionist.I just bought a flute of a mate of mine.I already practice bass guitar and looking at flute as well.Oh well suppose it keeps me out of trouble I suppose.
@@IanNorman-uu7jx
I dunno, there are plenty of musicians who find a way to get into trouble. 😉😆
I played flute for three months, then I dropped it and switched to trombone. 8 years later, I'm picking flute back up again. Thank you for this.
Hi shimmer, my daughter is the opposite, she's been learning trombone and now wants to learn flute.. do you think she will find playing the flute easily?
@@melissascheffer522 They're not exactly close together, but it would be easier from trombone to flute than something like cello to flute. Also flute was like my 8th instrument, so I was accustomed to learning how to play an instrument. I found it relatively easy
@@Nixplaystrombone funny actually, I’m switching from a cello to a flute- this transition is so incredibly hard for me.. I never really wanted to stop playing the cello but that’s just how it ended up. Now I am just beginning the flute and can almost barely make a sound most of the time..
@@zenmilk oh good luck. Switching clefs and methods of sound production is difficult
@@Nixplaystrombone thanks I’m gonna need it, and yes it’s very hard.. I don’t have very good breath control so that’s something I really need to work on.
i’m really glad i found this channel honestly. i found out my late sister’s flute is still functional and have been dying to try and learn. thank you for giving me this opportunity to grow closer to her memory.
Rest in peace “your sister”. May she rest in peace
Sorry for your loss. Rest in peace.
Just bought the course and my flute is arriving tomorrow. I can't wait!! Thank you so much for working so hard to provide resources for those of us who can't really afford music lessons/ don't have the time to attend one. 😁🎶
Happy to help! Happy practicing!
My grandfather just got me one, so excited!
Even a cheap flute can have a beautiful sound, as long as you are determined
Today is my 57th birthday. I have received a beautiful flute as a gift. I took a semester of flute as a child, but that was so long ago that I have forgotten everything. I am here to begin anew.
Happy birthday!
I am amazed and shocked how emily is the only person who explains and teaches so well unlike other people we met. My sis is 6 and alr know the basics of the flute thanks to you so u deserve my subscription thanks!
so happy to help! happy practicing! ❤️
As Harold Bennett's great-granddaughter, I played clarinet for a while but never had the fire for music burn in me as he did. My eight-year-old daughter does, however, and she's chosen to follow in his footsteps with the flute. You'll be teaching me so that I can guide and correct her practice at home. Her great-great-grandfather would be very proud.
As a freshman clarinet now learning to play flute, I have a lot of respect for flutes now, it's so so different and I have no clue how you guys do it!
I have been playing the clarinet since I was 8 and stopped at 17 when I went to college. Now I’m 30 (very scary lol) and I want to play the flute because my brother and sister play it and I’m the odd one out and it’s such a beautiful instrument! It’s so hard to produce a sound!
What the hell am I doing here? I have a test tomorrow. I don't even have a flute
😂😂😂
Did you pass?
Fantastic, Baby bombastic! As always thank you for sharing your Priceless passion with us🌹🤗
My pleasure! Thanks for watching! I'm really proud of this project and the reaction from the community has been amazing!
It's my second day with my flute and I can already make a sound and play a small piece thank you so much
I CANT MAKE A SOUND AAA
and this is where practice comes in 😭
Can you post a beginner lesson like this on how to hold a piccolo?
I've looked everywhere on how to hold the piccolo.
Just a five minute video would be so appreciated.
Your lessons are so smooth and natural. Thank you.
hello! i wanted to tell you this really helped me alot, in middle school i played flute (im in high school now and forgot all about the flute). i came across my flute and was like "OMG i wanna learn again" so i looked up beginners Flute Tut and boom i saw you. it really made me remember alot so thank you.
POV you whistle every time you blow
I've been playing flute for 4 years and still don't know what I'm doing 😭😭😭
dang i been playing it for 4 months and know it fine
I just started on the lessons. Tomorrow is when I get the flute.
It’s been 3 years for me 😭it’s my old band teacher who made older kids in the grade teach us and that obviously made most things I did wrong. The teacher didn’t even try teaching us she just made sure we could make a sound with it then left 🥲
I’ve been playing clarinet for five years and I’m going to start learning flute soon and this is super helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
How exciting and wonderful! I am not a beginner, more a devoted intermediate; however, I look forward to seeing this series and passing it along to students who would benefit from it - and I'm betting I'll glean some knowledge, too. Thank you for creating this!
Thats an amazing and kind thing to do! Thanks!
@@flutechannel you make me want to play flute again
I know I am late but I am in middle school 8th grade and I finally decided to join band and learning the flute was my dream but because my professor got really ill now I have to learn from home after school . I am so happy I found your channel thank you for helping me and others.
Thank you ma'am, you helped me A LOT!!! I used to play in middle school band as a beginner and this was an absolute great way to refresh and learn a little more.
Ty. I'm almost 40 and found one at a pawn shop and have always wanted to learn. . Your tips and tricks really help. Love the way you explain everything. Understood it very well.
Glad to help Brandie
I don't play flute, I don't even own a flute how did I get here? What am I doing here?
!!! These parts are only for if you happen to know parts before it, such as reason in following your book directions !!! And yes, these are in order.
0:01 - Head Joint and making sound
2:25 - Assembling your flute
4:20 - Holding the flute

7:12 - Treble Clef, lines on Treble, and positioning #2
11:06 - B Note. Another comment may appear later, I’m a lazy kid sorry so part 2 comment later :]
I am having a flute delivered right now. I am so excited to see your description on your video. Thank you so much for your care and dedication to flute players, veterans and new beginners.
You are so welcome!
I am a beginner and this is very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
This was really really useful -- went from basically never having even thought of flute, to playing a few melodies in 4 hours!!
I’m only in 6th grade and It’s was really hard for me but when I found your channel it made it easy for me thank you !!!
me too it’s super hard

I used to play the flute for a couple of years when i was a kid. I have been wanting to get back to it, this is an amazing refresher and life saver, thank you so much!!
You can do it!
I just bought my first flute today and am so blessed to have found your video to introduce me to this beautiful instrument. Thank you, have a blessed day.
Did you buy a beginners flute or a normal one?

Wow! Thank you perfect timing! You upload this video and then my flute came!!!!
Thats amazing Alberto, be sure to check the full course on musogy! Happy Practicing!
I got (wrongfully) expelled so spending the year re-learning a bunch of old instruments I havent had the privilege to access since I was in high-school! I got this bargain flute today and within an hour of getting back home and this video, I was able to produce sound consistently! aaa I feel so happy! Music is everything to me and there is no greater pleasure than playing!
Happy to help!
Thanks for the vid
Any time!
Nice to meet you Mrs. Emily! I am 35 years old and I have been playing the flute off and on since I was 17 years old; a junior in high school. I taught myself how to play because I have always loved the flute so much and I was DYING to be able to play it for myself.
I have never taken flute lessons until today by watching your video on RUclips! I am in between a beginner and an intermediate level right now and I love to play Disney songs, Christian church songs and Christmas songs!!! 😁😁😁❤️🎶❤️
Thank you so very much for sharing your helpful videos with everyone and I hope that God will richly bless you!
Cheers!

@@flutechannel You have helped so much! I'm even more motivated to stop smoking now. I've had it all summer, but never really learned to blow it.... Do you have any tips on how to clean flutes? 🙃
@@flutechannel ruclips.net/video/8XzPxQxxbSI/видео.html I found it. 🤗 thanks!.... but my flute was given to me and didn't come with a rag. I'll have to get one, but thank you. I will get back to practicing now. 👌

Great! Thank you so much! Helped me a lot!
You're welcome!
Thank you!
You're welcome!
I watched Lizzo on Johnathon Ross. That's what got me to take up the flute. So, I decided to take it out of my wardrobe and practice it.
Ive played trumpet for 5 years and now im doubling on flute, friends laughed at me thought id play sax or trombone
Great!!! 🎉
Happy to see new people coming to this video! Check the link in the description and also let me know what type of videos do you want to see more! Happy Practicing!
Great teacher! Super professeure!
I love your videos, thanks for making this videos. I wish you were my personal flute teacher!
Wow, thank you!
I just purchased your course. I am very excited to get started on it. Thank you!
Happy to hear Tanya! Wishing you all the best! Happy practicing!
Thank you so much, when I first got my flute I was so excited until my brother told me I wouldn’t be able to play it for a while, so I looked up this video, and now I’m able to play well! I appreciate this tutorial.
Thank you so much for posting this I can do the flute now because of you !!!😃😃😃😃
You're welcome Betty!!
Emily, Just purchased my 1st flute. I have had 3 years of Piano 🎹 lessons back in the 1960’s. This should be fun and interesting…
amazing! happy practicing luke!
Merci Amélie :)
I'm switching from saxophone to flute for marching next year, flute is so much fun
I play for nearly 50yrs, just got my wife one. I don't have a book for her, so I'm sending her to your site. I hope she can learn from you. I told her the most important thing is a good clean sound, all the rest will fall into place.
Of course, and plenty of practice. All the best to her and have fun playing duets!
I have asthma and COPD. Someone told me I need to play a wind instrument to strengthen my lungs. The saxophone requires way more wind than I'm able to produce so I've decided to go with the flute which uses more gentle breathing.
This helped me SO MUCH thank you!!
You're so welcome Amanda!
Thanks I'm a year 5 student learning the flute and it helps me alot!
Thanks I learnt how to play B and B-flat with ease thanks alot!!
This is one challenging instrument to learn
I played the flute when I was younger and played all the way up to Conservatory Grade 8, then life interfered. I just ordered a flute from ebay and we'll see how rusty I am. I'm excited to get back into it, and hopefully the flute is a decent one.
Amelie thank you so much! I'm a beginner and these flute lessons really teach me. Now that i'm getting better today, I took 1 straight hour of practice watching your videos over and over. I love your channel! btw im new here!
Welcome to the community!
@@flutechannel thank you!
Thank you, this helped me a lot!
Glad to hear it!
I can only make a sound 50% of the time, and when I do, it’s a crappy sound. I’m definitely second chair material.
thank you for this. I particularly like how you teach us to make a noise before putting the flute together. I had heard that making a proper noise was the hardest part. I'll do that from now on before putting the instrument together. (turns out its not that difficult when you know how it works)
Fantastic James! Happy practicing!
Thank you for this lesson this helps a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
Merci!
Merci Andre!
4 weeks into trying to play and I still cant make a sound. 😭 I'm going to keep trying though.
Same lmao
It took me 6 months to make a good constant sound when I was learning in year 6
Don't give up. It takes time ⌚. I'm learning and getting the right tone. Don't give up.
