I've never played flute in my life until now, as I love the sound of this instrument. My goal is to continue with my private lessons along with practic...

I have gotten many products for my flutes from there. They are located in Syrac...

hey i thought i was the only one who learned on an Armstrong 104! The best one I can direct you towards if you still want an Armstrong is the 303B model. I just got mine and it is about the same price as the 104 it is open holed with a low B foot. They also come with a combo case for the flute and p...

Thank You soooooo much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meghan, I know you don't like American Music, but I'm going
to get lessons there. If you want, we can get them together, they alow that.
Tell me if you want to go with me since Miss Spinella is so mean to us during
our lessons in school. I think she hates kids.[;)]

Your daughter can blow into the headjoint and make a sound, right? In case you don't know what the headjoint is, it is the part with a lip riser (part where you blow into). If she can do this, she's on the right track! When I started flute and piccolo, that's what they had me do before I did anythin...

Some one please help me, I don''t know how to play a
low B or a low Bb on my flute! I have a B-foot open hole flute. What is the
fingering for these notes? They are the ones below the staff. Thank you![:)]

Meghan, I figured out what you usually do
wrong! You forget to take off your left ring finger when you play it. You take
it off a little bet, but your finger still holds the key about half way down.
Try to correct this and you'll be able to play it.

I don't seem to have much problem with E3 using alternate fingering but it is a bit sharp, F3 is not too bad but G3 is very sharp as is A3. Fortunately...

that website. Now you sound like you are a representative from
musicnotes.[:bigsmile:] [:p] [;)] [:)]

[quote] ---------------- On 6/14/2004 4:20:38 PM If you go to eBay to search for a flute, you can never decide which one to buy and who to trust. I recently bought a flute from eBay and it was brand new for only 100.00. It is a nice flute and a good price because i've been renting one for three year...

I have been playing the flute for 3 years and I have just started playing more high notes in band class. For some reason I can never play a high E Natural. No matter how hard I blow. I know there is nothing wrong with my flute but maybe how I have my lips positioned. Can somebody give me tips??? Meg...
