About Flute * The flute is a family of musical instruments in the woodwind group. * A flute is an aerophone or reedless wind instrument that produces its sound from the flow of air across an opening. * A flute produces sound when a stream of air directed across a hole in the instrument creates a vibration of air at the hole. * The flutist changes the pitch of the sound produced by opening and closing holes in the body of the instrument, thus changing the effective length of the resonator and its corresponding resonant frequency. * By varying the air pressure, a flutist can also change the pitch by causing the air in the flute to resonate at a harmonic rather than the fundamental frequency without opening or closing any holes. Beginning Playing Tips * Close Holes Completely: Any hole that you close must be completely covered or the flute will produce a squeaky sound. * Play slowly: Take your time with each note, this will help you develop good habits, fingering speed will come by itself. * Close your eyes: This develops your tactile skills and your muscle memory, helping coordination develop more quickly. * Breath: Breathe at normal intervals, try not to wait until you p for air. Your breath capacity will develop naturally. * Experiment: To learn the tonal range of each note blow softly at first and then increase your breath until the note breaks. * Tone: Each note has a sweet spot, if a note is shrill or breathy decrease the air flow, if it is wi or weak increase the air flow to liven it up. * Play the scale: Playing the basic scale proficiently is the foundation from which you will build your melodies. Keeping the 3rd finger from the top closed, play the scale up and down. Slightly increase the air flow as you play up the scale and decrease it on your way back down.
