• How to Make a Sound on...
This school year I am switching after 4 years of doing strings orchestra to marching band. I got my flute three days ago and I have to teach myself how to play the set by the end of the summer. this is my first woodwind. Your videos have been very helpful so far in my process!
Best of luck Kate, you'll do great. If you're wanting to excel quickly you would be able to do that from the lessons I have set for you in the Gold Level members area at LearnFluteOnline.com - come join us! It will be fun to help you. :) -Rebecca | Learn Flute Online
Hello new student never played before and your technique for learning how to make a sound on the flute for beginners is awesome. I thank you. I’ve been practicing it over and over.
bought an inexpensive piccolo on ebay ... never played a flute or a piccolo ... struggled with it ... watched your video ... got in front of the mirror, and after about 5 minutes, I was making a sound ... totally cool
How fun! The piccolo is a fun place to start, and I'm glad that I could help! - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
Hello, a few days ago I found a flute on sale at a market. Impulsively, I bought it. I followed various on-line teachers without success and for forty-eight hours I struggled to make any sound other than gasping, puffing, swearing all of which my wife found very amusing. Then I found your channel and your explanation helped enormously. I can now play two notes and my spirits rose accordingly. Upon hearing my two, clear notes my wife entered my room, took one look at the screen, saw you and exclaimed, “Barrie, at 86 years you will never change, I knew there would be a beautiful woman somewhere... Kind Regards, Barrie.
Yay, I'm so glad that you found these videos and have already seen improvement. If you would like to continue with my lessons, you should join us in the members area at learnfluteonline.com . Hope to see you there! - Rebecca
OMG IT WORKED!!! FINALLLLLYYYYYY
When I cover the end of my head joint, the sound is fantastic, but when I leave it uncovered it just sounds.. sad. Airy and a little squawky :*(
Hi Sara, I'm glad you're working on it. You'll have some squeaks at first for sure. Do some good experimenting with how hard you're blowing.. you'll find a happy place within time, no worries. We'd love to have you join us at LearnFluteOnline.com in the members area. You're invited :) -Rebecca
Same
I'm a kid I just got this flute today and I tried to get my mouth right but I can't "yet"
@@lisahackbarth7840 omg same for all of this except I got my flute I think three days ago when I cover the end of the head joint it sounds so pure and amazing but when I leave it open it sounds like a dying cow lol
@@hannahbelle091I think you probably just need a faster airstream
Thank you soo much I have braces and you informing me helped me soo much! Thank you!
Glad I could help! - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
5:26 finally 😉❤
actually this has really helped me! i was tonguing wrong and now my sound is way better. thank you
Great to hear! Keep up the good work:) - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
Thank you for your great advice! I am learning Chinese bamboo flute, watch other CZcamsr and read book, but the result was on and off. Came across your video by accident and give it a try, it is spot on, I made a very loud clear sound from the first try and every consecutive one. The best point is the one about blowing toward the edge and let the air split, which failed to mention by other chinese youtuber and books.
I'm so glad that I could be helpful to you! It sounds like you are excited about learning to play your flute. Keep up the good work! - Rebecca

Woohoo! I'm so glad this video helped you. Congrats on making your first sound. -Rebecca
Thx
I am 80 years old and have been playing the clarinet since I was 62. I play in a New Horizons band. But recent dental problems have made me want to switch to an instrument where I don't have to bite down on the mouthpiece with my front teeth. So I decided to try the flute. I have looked at several flute instruction videos today but until I saw yours I could not get a sound out of my flute. Thanks for your help! I'm going to keep trying! Paulus

Teaching flute is another story! How do you teach someone to make a sound in flute?!?!

Glad it helped!

Sry that was off topic 😅
I know how to play clearly but whenever I play a song and move from a higher register to a lower register it doesn't make a consistent sound. My high notes are okay but when I reach the low notes they sound airy. 😕
Thanks for the question - there's some special technique you need to make that transition smoothly. I haven't seen you play, but I'm guessing you can learn to 'drop and relax' - this will help your airy sound especially if you can press plenty of air between a flatter lip shape. I can help you with it even more at LearnFluteOnline.com . I'm glad you're working on sounding great on your flute. It's a beautiful instrument. :) - Rebecca
Are there any tricks on getting just the right angle to blow? I have been having trouble with that..
I'm glad you are working on your flute! And yes, keeping your lip plate level (or parallel to a flat ceiling) rather than letting it tip towards or away from you is very important. For more tips and tricks like this make sure you join us at learnfluteonline.com for beginner - advanced lessons! - Rebecca Fuller
@@LearnFluteOnline Thank you for the tips, unfortunately I won't be able to sign up for classes, because I'm still a minor, but I will continue to learn flute from your videos!
Thankkk you so mucchhhhh, literally thought that the flute wasfake, after watching i got an instant sound 😭😭
I'm so happy to hear that this video helped you! Please check out my website where I have thousands of video tutorials for beginners all the way through advanced levels. Hope to see you there soon! -Rebecca
Ok so what does it mean by the Head joint is a PCR and not a 925 ? Sry I don’t know much.
I make a sound all day on a head but the second i put the whole flute together I can't make a sound
It is tricky to move to making a sound on your entire flute at the beginning. Spend some time looking in the mirror as you play and make a sound on your headjoint. Then put the whole flute together and watch yourself again. Can you notice any differences? My guess is that your lip is not in the same place or your air stream is not blowing in the same direction exactly. Best of luck!
-Rebecca
Start with pow as she correctly mentioned not with tow . Cause pow brings a deep mature sound
Awesome! I'm glad that you could take something from this video. Happy fluting! - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
Aaaaa it didnt work for mee the first time
Sometimes that first sound on your flute can take some practice! Try a few times, and if you need to take a break, watch the video again, and try again. You can do this! - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
You look no older than 30 but you said you're taught for 32 years....wow. you looked sooo young. Okey. I can to this video because I am in trouble. I told a few amateur musician that my brother gave me a flute and I am inspired to learn. So they told me to practice __ piece, but now I can't even make a sound...lol😢😂
i think im doing it wrong because it sound super clear but if i overdo it i get light headed,is that normal
It is normal to get light headed when you're first learning, but the more you know about good technique and sizing your aperture, the easier it is to reach those notes easily without ever getting light headed. Make sure you join us over at learnfluteonline.com in the members area for more beginner-advanced flute lessons... and make sure you have fun! - Rebecca | Learn Flute Online
Making a sound on the flute can be hard for the first few days you say, more like first few weeks for me
Speed of learning is a bit different for everyone, but I know you can do it! I hope that this video helped, and if you want more instruction make sure that you join us in the members area at learnfluteonline.com where I can give you tons of in depth step by step lessons. Happy fluting! - Rebecca
@@LearnFluteOnline thanks, I am getting a lot better, and the video did help.
Does this take months or weeks because I’ve been trying for hours and it’s still kind of tricky for me.
You should be able to develop a sound within a few hours. However, do get a clear and solid sound, it will take many hours/days of practice. The more you play and practice, the more clear your sound will get.
@@LearnFluteOnline aw thank you today I just made a sound out of the flute. Also thank you for these tips.
We don't have the same flute :(
👍 👏 One can even play “Mary had a Little Lamb” with just using the head joint. 😉 🎶
Totally - that's in the next lesson. We definitely play some good exercises and a few little tunes with just our head joint. Fun! -Rebecca
@@LearnFluteOnline Yippee! Happy fluting! 😊 🎶
When I try doing this it won't make a sound no matter what I do its just my air
Keep trying. I'm sure as you experiment with where to blow your air, you'll find the right spot. Be sure the flute hole is lined up directly under your lip hole. It's also important to make sure the hole is pointed to the ceiling instead of pointed towards your face. Keep it up and then come get even more instruction. I'll help you. - Rebecca
It may just be me but why is my flute not making any sound? Please help
Hmm, I'm sorry you're having trouble. If you are not able to make a sound on your headjoint there may be a problem with the cork inside? However, if you believe your flute is in top condition, watch this video again and keep practicing. Happy fluting! -Rebecca
I've watched this 18 times and I still can't make any noise it's just air
What are some ways I can fix this?
Hi, it’s okay you’ll get it. You want to experiment with the angle you’re blowing. Practice the spit method I show you by just blowing onto your hand in front of you first. When you feel you’re getting a consistent “thwooo” then you can start working on your head joint. Keep your face nice and straight and not looking down into the flute. Let me know how it goes! Rebecca
HELLO
Hi! I hope this video was helpful :) - Rebecca

Should it be kind of a pttttoey as if I’m gonna spit or call someone’s idea bonkers, “oh ptoooooey!?” My throat hurts from all the trying and I just can’t get it. Am I supposed to make a whistle into or across the hole or is it strictly air I’m giving it? I keep flipping back and forth too cuz you don’t show which way to hold it and I’m completely idiotic…is it mouth-right hand-left hand or mouth-left hand-right hand? Even if I pull up another video I don’t know how the camera flips or doesn’t flip the image.
I always tell my students to pretend they have a tiny piece of rice at the end of their tongue, then spit. Sometimes, I even have them start with real pieces of rice before trying to make a sound on their flute. Maybe this is something you can practice to get the right feeling down.
As for the way to hold the head joint of the flute in this video. The end cap you can twist should be held by your left hand. Then your right hand will cover the open whole at the other end.
I hope this helps!
-Rebecca
@@LearnFluteOnline bought a flute for 8.99 at goodwill cuz I’m already a harpist and pianist of 30 years. Just couldn’t do the flute though but it turns out, my lower teeth are false and I’ve read several people say it’s impossible to create a flute embouchure with a denture on bottom and took it out and Whoa is it true. So guess I’ll be finding another new instrument. Just fyi in case it ever happens again with someone you’ll know. Thank you so still though! Even a dentist confirmed. :(
So it's like ur blowing into a mason jar???
Yes! It is very similar to the sound you make when you blow across a glass bottle. You can do this! -Rebecca
Why do you tongue in between your teeth as opposed to behind your top teeth? Thanks.
Great question, Brian. Thanks for asking. There are a few different tonguing styles, and this is one of them. It's called the "front tongue" method. Have you tried it yet? IT's a perfect way to learn how to use your air stream and get a nice round sound right away. It's how many people (including professionals) use their tongue. There are definitely place and time to use other styles as well. Things to think about. Thanks again for the comment. Have fun with your flute! -Rebecca
I am a band director who loves using your videos, but this is the one thing that I do not use of yours. Can you tell me more of why you prefer it for your students and for advanced students? Does it help the sound? It seems more labored (probably because i do not practice this way). Thoughts?
Thanks.
Didn’t help me at all
I'm sorry to hear that! Let me know if you have any questions and I can write you a person response to whatever you may be having a hard time with. - Rebecca | learnfluteonline.com
