Annie Welcome to the club! It really depends on a few things, so I will cover the ones I have ran into. Fisr let me tell you, you cannot tighten up your embochure!!!! You have to loosen it, and focus more air down then across. The same way you hit C4(High C) on the flute, you have to play a piccolo ...

Hello! I am new to this website, but not new to flute. I have been practicing my scales more lately, and one day, I actually played the chromatic scale perfectly, and 8 times in a row. First of all, welcome to the website. Second, scales are the most under rated "TO DOs" in music. This whole trick ...

barrington
This brand is sold by www.wwbw.com and is a decent starter instrument. You may have to send send back the first one you get though. I have a barrington Pic, and it plays and sounds great.

I play on my Piccolo more nowadays than my flute, but I think the Pic is a more limited instrument in a lot of ways.(Range for one!) even though I can play faster on a pic for some strange reason. A pic is also not very forgiving. However, there is nothing like doing a flute gig with a piccolo. Peop...

Always get the best instrument you can afford, but also keep in mind about tastes. The longer you play, the more your tastes will change. You can learn how to play well on any instrument, but you will play better easier, and faster on an instrument that you prefer. I would play on both of them, side...

When you play a major scale, you already know 4 of them. When you playoff different degrees of a major scale, and play up, you will be playing a different scale. For example if you play a D scale in the key of C, you are playing a Dorian minor scale. I will demonstrate this in the key of C. C Ionion...

I am really a sucker for threads like these! It is just plain easier to play on an offset G than it is on an inline. Period. Isnt that an instrument should really want, one that is easier for you to play on! Unfortunately, when people see all of these high dollar French style onpen holes, with an in...

I started playing flute in 1991 after I got out of the Marine Corps/DOD. I always wanted to play flute since I was a kid, but there were stigmas about men who played flute that I was not mentally about to deal with at the time. Nowadays, I really dont give a hoot what anyone thinks. I was already an...

My favorite instrument (I Own) is a Buffet/Crampton International model. You can pick up one of these for around $1500 dollars. If you can find one. This flute is a very under rated flute for the the price! I own a Hayes Standard. The Buffet IMO plays and sounds almost as good and plays better than ...

Jazzy I do not disagree with you. I have seen just as many people give up, or not get into music for finacial reasons. I have also seen people use their instrument(Or lack of a better one) as a cop-out! I am sure Charlie Parker would have liked nicer instruments, but that did not stop him from playi...
