    I think that the difference between cheap and professional picollo is way more audible. And when playing picollo there is always problem with tuning and stuff so in my opinion when you want to buy picollo (but not a professional one) you should consider for instance Yamaha YPC32 👏

    • @flutechannel
      @flutechannel  6 лет назад +11

      Totally it is very audible in these examples. Problem is for many is that the YPC-32 is over budget for many people. Im surprised and pretty happy options likes this are available.

    • @andrejcernansky6520
      @andrejcernansky6520 6 лет назад +3

      Of course it is a great option for a forming marching band or those who have a low budget. But usually before you start playing picollo, you'd probably played for couple years on flute. And if you take it seriously you should better save up for a better one. But for example me, i am playing the mentioned Yamaha 32 and i have it just lent from our music school and i play in orchestra on it. 👏

    • @flutechannel
      @flutechannel  6 лет назад +4

      Yes and no Andrej, in America especially wind band (high school) and college marching bands some start off on the piccolo. Which is great. Another sad problem is even school music programs don't have the budget for new instruments, so they would rather play music that doesn't require a certain instrument than get an expensive piccolo. I wish I had a school lend me a nice piccolo like that 32 or 62.

      I agree - the key action on the cheap piccolo's is noticeable. I bought a cheap hot pink piccolo to play in field band and the key action is much stiffer than my Haynes. I haven't made many adjustments but she demonstrated similarly esp. with the trills.

  • @jill9356
    @jill9356 5 лет назад +10

    The Yamaha has a clearer tone, but that’s to be expected for something not intended for beginners. The cheaper alternatives, like you have said, are great for people just starting on piccolo and they aren’t as responsive to weather like the wooden one, so you could spend more time practicing rather than tuning at least until your ear develops at least, and until you’ll be able to just tell if something sounds off. So that really great. It’s always the little nuances for some one trained though, that can make or break an instrument, metaphorically of course.

    This video I could (surprisingly) tell the difference in sound between the three piccolos. The silver Eastar sounded better than the Nickel (a bit more resonant). The wood definitely had a "less screechy" sound to it, more fluid and consistent in notes. However as you've pointed out in your video, the cheaper piccolos are good for beginners since they are playable and don't cost a mint. One has to start somewhere and at least the cheap piccolos work. That's good to know. Thank you for the video. : )

  • @gerjvaj
    @gerjvaj 5 лет назад +4

    Warning!!! I actually had a student that asked for some piccolo help. She had the silver plated Eastar. I did think that it was pretty responsive but the pitch was very flat. We had tried to push in as much as possible and still was about 10 cents under. The cork was where it needed to be. After a few minutes of fiddling around with it, the instrument was finally closer to pitch. The A was about 2 or 3 cents flat. (This is with the piccolo still pushed in all the way) If you get this piccolo (or any piccolo), make sure that you check intonation.

    I dont see the need to spend $3000 on a piccolo I have the pearl flute piccolo that only costed me $1200 and I honestly prefer mine over a wooden one. Also I can play it outside without worrying about cracks.

    I really would like to get a Yamaha 62R.
    It was easily the best Piccolo of the three I tried.
    I tried the basic Yamaha student piccolo, then the Pearl student piccolo, and then the Yamaha 62R.

      I really like the Yamaha's and the resin one that looks like the 62 is quite phenomenal for the price $999 Canadian. I would try a few of the same model and see which fits best. Some get regulated ever so slightly.

    Have you tried the Nuvo plastic flute? I've been thinking of getting one since my band does a few outdoor performances and sometimes it rains. I was using my old Artley flute as an outdoor flute but at the last parade it lost a cork so it needs to be repaired (actually it needs an overhaul...the flute is older than I am). I've heard the Nuvo is waterproof and can be played in the rain without worry of damaging the pads. I'd love to see a review if you do one.

      The pads are odd to get used to. Ideally I’d recommend one of of the Guo flutes for waterproof because the mechanism is MUCH better feeling. I mean I still use and love my Guo but it’s not for very flashy music

      If I didn’t already have a Yamaha, I would be playing a Guo full time.
