A master flute maker, an inspired flute player, a natural poet and an Oscar level actor and comedian all rolled in one genius. Impossible to stop watching this spiel halfway !
@@ErikTheFlutemakerCom He's totally right, though. This video was incredible. You could have made a top-notch performer in the entertainment industry, with points on your contracts and a multi-million-dollar quote. Or at least a public-access TV show!
I just remembered this video today and had to give it another watch. I stumbled upon this video as a kid and loved it. I'm glad to say it still holds up and even the jokes I remembered were still funny. Thanks for the video, man. You're like The Dude, but funny.
Erik, you are simply a poet, caress our ears with your music, congratulations on your work and dedication in keeping the art of this beautiful instrument...
I have no idea if you read it one day, but I really hope so you do. The fact that you create beautifully sounding flutes is obvious. But there is much more hidden in this story. I want you to know, I consider you an artist and a man of culture in every way. It's how you sneak your acting skills, weave various cultural themes and symbols, deserve for... I have no words. I think you have a beautiful soul. I would like to have such self-confidence someday. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, skills and sense of humor in such a fascinating way. Good bless you!
This cracked me up so much! I swear, with that sense of humor, *you could sell soot to a chimney sweep.* Keep playing that Generation X Revival music...ROTFL!!! I've already subscribed to you my good man!
First time I have seen this guy, I nearly peed my pants laughing at his antics. Very good information, and exceptionally fine delivery of such! Thank you Sir!
Fantastic presentation. I am convinced. Now in the process of buying my first Erik Flute. Carbon Fibre Arabian. From Great Highland Bagpipe (50 years of learning) to Low D Whistle and now Exotic Arabian Flute is quite a transition.
I love this man and his music. I met him about 20 years ago at Scarborough Fair and bought about 7 flutes from him over the years. I miss him.. wish he'd come back to the fair but I guess he got to popular and busy :( Gonna order some more from his website.
Erik, you have brought a lot of joy and spread beauty around our humble oasis in the Holy Land...yes, the birds and even some lizards stop to listen when I play to flutes you and your wife have crafted...Don't forget to visit when you come to Israel next time
LoL- Great spiel! Just picked up this strange looking instrument from a neighbor, discovered via the web, it's one of your concert tuned "Skinny" bamboo saxes in B flat. Never played a sax before, discovered the sweet sounds they make. Looking forward to learning how to create some of my own once I learn how to play it prolificantly. Hope to meet you one day and hear you play live.
Erik, this is the most entertaining vid I've viewed on utube; I'm trying to make a native flute but I'll b sure to visit your site FIRST. THANKS for your sharing and FANTASTIC sense of humor, dude!
well alot of you people that are comenting should start going to big acoustic music festivals and meetings, there you will find alot of people that are capable of playing ALOT of different instruments masterfully, talented musicans does not only exist on youtube... I love this guy I laughed many many times, he explains every flute background in a very very good and funny way.
Just thought you'd like to know. I'm from the NY area. I got one of your D flutes at my first trip to the NY faire when I was about 10. That was 15 years ago (before you put the dates on the flute at least). It's still in great shape.
Absolutely amazing! Loved this so much. PLEASE tell me that you are still making and selling flutes!!! I will be a life long customer. And please keep uploading videos!!!
+Victorious Conde Hi Victorious: Still making flutes which are at www.eriktheflutemaker.com Over 100 videos at Erik the flutemaker channel in youtube. Have a great day. And hope to catch you in the Fluture! Erik

You, Sir, are made entirely of original man material. Many thanks for sharing and greetings from Brazil!
"You collect the flute, I collect...the LOOT!" xD
That was my favorite part too xD
A poet, comedian, musician and entrepreneur.

Absolutely amazing! A great craftsman and a perfect performer too :D
Thank you very much!
How inspiring to see a genius at work and play!
ahh 9 minutes im not gonna watch all of this... 9 minutes later... noooooooo its endinggggggg fuuuuuu

Tom Asovic I know the feel
Fantastic presentation. I am convinced. Now in the process of buying my first Erik Flute. Carbon Fibre Arabian. From Great Highland Bagpipe (50 years of learning) to Low D Whistle and now Exotic Arabian Flute is quite a transition.
honestly, i LOVED every second of this video, everything. made my wife watch it, the only problem is that now, i want all of those flutes and saxs.
You tickle my funny-bone in a way that is most inappropriate, and most enjoyable as well. Thank you. Wonderful instruments.
I love this man and his music. I met him about 20 years ago at Scarborough Fair and bought about 7 flutes from him over the years. I miss him.. wish he'd come back to the fair but I guess he got to popular and busy :( Gonna order some more from his website.
This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a while. :D
Bravo, good sir.
I've been watching your RUclips's. Very captivating and educational..
That was singularly THE best commercial I've ever seen. Dude/my noble sir, the Superbowl lineup would be most fortuitous to have you. 😂
Loved the humor, amazed by the sounds you get from those flutes.
BRILLIANT and splendidly comedic and definitely erudite... thank you, doctor!
I find you absolutely fabulous and will choose a few to learn..
Bravo sir! Your spiel had it all. Now I must go watch every video you have made and buy one of your flutes!

This reminds me of Ron Burgandy. Definitely a favorite for me now. I play the Native American flute but I don't think I could play such a variety.
