    Love the thought “if you do it once it’s a mistake. If you do it again it’s a technique

    Self awareness is how I basically self taught myself playing the flute, learning certain techniques and making them my own way of expressing my spirit within.

    Thanks . I can't wait to get the flute kit my daughter bought me for doing her car repairs. I want to try it out on something other than PVC .

    Playing by ear and the heart has helped me learn guitar over the years. Now I will apply this to playing the flute. I already learned the sharp slide from watching this vid..Thank you brother!

    I do enjoy the song at the start to every video you have made. Learning how to play the flute from you. Enjoying that process. And in time will be able to play that song. What a wonderful moment/feeling that will be. I like your philosophy on life. Be well.

    Charlie ... Another educational and insightful video from BlueBearFlutes. Would you consider doing a video on the technique for vibrato on the Native American flute? My BlueBear eastern red cedar five hole flute is one of my prized possessions!!! Me and mine wish you and yours all things great and good; take care, be safe, all my best and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas. 🤠🐩🖖✝️🙏☃️👍

    • @BlueBearFlutes
      @BlueBearFlutes  Před 3 lety +2

      Thank you my friend! That is a great honor for me! I do have one video on vibrato czcams.com/video/QlcP-WFaYJA/video.html and it is also an included lesson in my 12 week course (currently uploading) as well as in an upcoming video! Keep an eye out for it! The 12 week course is being added 1 lesson at a time to the website until all 12 lessons are there, then public on CZcams. You can still watch it for free on the site however! :)

    Hey Charlie, can you do a video on your thoughts and sentiments on the Warble sound of certain flutes. (We spoke briefly about it through email a while back and I would love to know your full thoughts on it.) Thanks!!

  • @mikegillihan9944
    @mikegillihan9944 Před 2 lety +1

    Charlie, the only way I can describe you is as a “spiritual realist”. Those two words don’t normally go together. You should teach classes on spiritual realism, with a side course on friendly sarcastic humor. All of your videos sparkle. 😊

    Hi. Is it possible to play for ex El Condor Pasa with the 5 whole flute or do I need another flute?

    • @BlueBearFlutes
      @BlueBearFlutes  Před rokem +2

      Ahhh, one of my favorite old songs! It is possible, however much easier on a (modern) quena because of its design. I've been meaning to make a video of how to play it on these types of flutes and will some day!

    • @JosesGarage101
      @JosesGarage101 Před rokem

      @BlueBearFlutes that sounds great, I hope to se that video anytime soon my friend. The modern flute could it be the 6 whole flute?

      I love this song. I play this on a pan flute, which, actually, is also a native American flute. Michael

    Is there any calculation for each holes.I made indian flute with pvc pipe.But i cant get proper tuning.Is there any method to get the hole distance and sizes

    • @BlueBearFlutes
      @BlueBearFlutes  Před 3 lety

      There are calculators online which are not truly accurate. I have measurements for most flutes available in my book and on my CZcams channel.
