      I play sax, which doesn't require you to press that key down, so I went through the same thing learning flute. I still leave it out sometimes on E, to avoid getting an E-flat when transitioning to D.

    Hi Lance, I just found your channel and you have a really great way of explaining things. I'm a former classically trained clarinetist who hasn't played in years and am teaching myself flute. Something I'm struggling with is air capacity and not being able to go more than a few seconds without a breath (especially with no resistance on the flute) Are there exercises that target lung capacity specifically? And is this something you can talk about in a video? I'm really loving the flute and thanks for your great videos!

  • @SylvainBOTTELLO
    @SylvainBOTTELLO 4 месяца назад

    Thank you, Lance. Post your videos on fingering And how to manage the air are also useful to me
    I am practising now, the third octave and I just discovered with you there is a fourth Ahah 😅
    How would you recommend to practice the third octave so exercise or you view on it please?
    Again, thank you for the amazing quality and work you put in this videos 😊

  • @SnowFaceChamcham

    Got the cecilio $50 flute to try. I can't tell yet if it's a skill issue or craftsmanship but the 3rd octave is not currently possible for me. Even when I get it into that 3rd octave range it feels at least a whole step off of what i'm fingering.

  • @Spade_Does_Artz
    @Spade_Does_Artz 4 месяца назад

    You should give a tutorial for how to do the vibrato effects on the flute! It would help me a lot!!

      @LanceSuzuki  4 месяца назад

    Beautiful Hi E. Looks like a split E mechanism but not sure. I'm sure you could produce an excellent E without the mechanism. Great video! Much better than trying to read fingering charts.

    • @LanceSuzuki
      @LanceSuzuki  4 месяца назад

      Good eyes! 👀 Yes, I do have a Split-E. It is definitely a luxury and I enjoy having it. However, I’ve played on many flutes without. Thanks for watching and happy practicing!

    Hi Lance, great video as always! I have a question, I learned that the fingering for F# in the 3rd octave uses R2 instead of R3. My professor said the sound would be clearer, and I now I’m used to this position for years. Have you heard about it before? Do you think it makes any difference? Thank you!

    • @LanceSuzuki
      @LanceSuzuki  4 месяца назад +4

      Hi Beatriz! Great question! For 3rd Octave F#, R3 is the standard fingering. However, R2 is the most popular alternate fingering.
      I often use R2 in orchestral/chamber music settings for tuning/blending purposes. R2 makes the pitch slightly lower and the tone slightly less bright. For sustaining a chord or playing fortissimo, these can be useful qualities.
      For scales and arpeggios, I will often choose R3. Also, when I want a very pure, crystal tone color, R3 is a good choice.
      Personally, I would not choose only one fingering to use, but would experiment and figure out how to incorporate both R2 and R3 into your playing.
      This is not your question, but for others wondering about first and second octave F#s, R2 should NOT be used, except for E-F# trills.

    Hi Lance, I didn't know that some flutes have the low B and I have this one music sheet that requires the low B. My flute doesn't have it. Should I play C-natural as an alternative? I did not notice before I bought the music sheet. But then it's uncomfortable to slide to E-flat. 😮‍💨

    • @LanceSuzuki
      @LanceSuzuki  4 месяца назад

      Although I have played notes above D, the times I have been asked to do so are very few. It’s definitely good to review these fingerings as necessary, but this range is standard for a reason. It covers about 99.9% of standard flute music. Thanks for watching and for your comment! ❤️

    It seems like the fingerings are harder than in violin 😁😁😁

    • @LanceSuzuki
      @LanceSuzuki  4 месяца назад +1

      Violin seems way harder to me! We have some funky combinations but no shifts and it’s probably easier for us to figure out where to put the fingers to begin with.
