its not really a fair comparison . The Mura is like anywhere from $2 - 10,000 .It can`t be expected to be anywhere near as good as the Mura. I think given the MASSIVE price difference it held up pretty well , yes you have to force air through it like crazy , but , if you learn to do it on that , when you can get your hands on a nice flute , its going to be a million times easier to play . Sometimes "learning the hard way" is good . Not only that , if you aren`t sure if the flute is for you or not , its a perfect way to " have a go" so to speak .

I would have killed for this flute when I was a kid; instead, I had to wait until I had $500 for a used "real" instrument, and it was definitely more off-putting than the "Slade" (yes, this very flute) that I got last year almost as a joke.

@rainsoakedpuppy 4 года назад

It's very sad to me that the instruments most likely to attract someone curious to try to learn to play, those being the least expensive, and therefore the least financially risky, are also always the most frustrating, the most difficult to actually play. How many novices have been completely turned off of learning the flute, or the bass guitar, or the saxophone, because they bought something practically unplayable for someone with their skill, and they just don't realize it. It's ironic that there would probably be more music, more musicians in the world, if these sorts of instruments simply didn't exist.

I know right? Only rich kids should be allowed to play an instrument. And it should be a *perfect* instrument, lest they be completely turned off by a less-than-perfect sound. Or, God forbid, crushed by the unclean task of actually learn how to deal with life. Like, tuning their own instruments O_O I'm not sure of how it works in the classical world; we commoners just try to play anything that makes a sound. If a $60 flute had existed when I was a kid, I'd have started playing it 10 years sooner. Luckily, there was a classical guitar in my grandpa's basement, with 5 metal strings, a broken peg and a few cracks.

@Clean97gti 4 года назад

@@IlBiggo it doesn't have to be perfect but it does need to be serviceable. A guitar is a little easier than a wind instrument in terms of making repairs and getting it set up. But first, you have to be able to identify problems and have the ability to fix them. That's not generally a skill a new player possesses and wind instruments have a steeper learning curve than a guitar.

@SelinaDumbledore 4 года назад

I'd say it's much better renting an instrument, when you start new than buying a cheap one. So you get a good quality instrument for practice but you could still change your mind. My parents rented all our instruments until we played them for two years and were fully committed. I bought my flute from my own savings when I turned 18 and I still play it.

@IlBiggo 4 года назад

Totally second this. Sadly, renting wasn't an option "in my days", so I support the idea of an instrument cheap enough for a kid to try it out. This flute is not as bad as you'd think; of course, if you're used to a $30K instrument you'll be unimpressed, to say the least .-D, but for a beginner it's more than adequate.

Cupronickel is a combination of copper and nickel along with strengthening elements such as iron and manganese. What I have heard from instrument repair people, these flutes are hard to fix and many instrument repair people will not work on these flutes. That flute you played was not as bright as some other flutes that I have played. I had a Bundy flute and it was horrible. When it got stolen, I did not even bother to report it to the police!

I had renters insurance, but musical instruments were not covered by the policy.

One of my students had something similar to this. Her flute was so messed up and no one would fix it. (I’m pretty sure it came messed up but it’s gotten worse.) I ended up practicing my repair skills on it. Only thing I could really fix was the cork (I just bought a new one and re did it.)

To plate something in nickel you would first put a layer of copper on the part then the nickel bonds to the copper.

Those Cupronickel flutes are usually made in China, Mexico or some other country. I prefer flutes that are made out of solid silver or solid sterling silver. They are more expensive, but in the long run they last longer and are not that hard to repair.

Hey! I saw in the vid you were wondering why the cheap flutes you've got have plastic under some of the keys when you open it. The plastic under the keys is to protect them in transit so that they don't get bent out of shape/the pads don't get damaged - with better woodwind instruments cork not plastic is used and most shops/sellers would remove it before you try the instruments so you don't see it that often when buying pro instruments.

RU-vid algorithm got me lookin at flute reviews at midnight LOL .. well good job making the cheap one sound nice. I don't think I've ever tried playing a flute once in my life.

The rubber pieces are to help keep the flute in adjustment by keeping the keys closed so they can’t move during transport. Granted, my expectations of a flute from amazon, eBay, or wish aren’t very high to behind with when it comes to adjustments and leakage... 😂

What a whistle on that cheap thing 😂 I'm out of breath just listening to you struggle and I'm not a flutist. Makes my miss playing the T. Sax, I cant play anymore since my diaphragm paralyzed.

My first Amazon flute finally broke after 6 months of intense use. Right before the jam. Now, I'm going to try an Intermediate Gemeinhardt. I'm so happy!

Considering that many people are allergic to nickel, making a complete flute from cupronickel is just asking for trouble.

I have no idea why this is in my recommendations, but now I’m intrigued. Now wanting to know about how to play the flute.

I don't know anything about flutes lol, but if I had to hire you to play and you played that flute - I wouldn't know that it wasn't a good one. You made it sound good!

I love when people think the recorder is the flute, just makes me laugh

I bought an "inexpensive" flute for my son while he was taking flute lessons while in elementary school. It was made from very poor metal and broke almost immediately! Well, I tried!

I bought a colored flute off ebay once. Didn't play too bad, but the blue color peeled off in sheets after a few weeks.

I got a flute from Wish (not used, brand new but it was on Wish so...trust issues at first😂) and it plays really well, I've had it for about 2 years. It actually wasn't that cheap, it cost a bit of money but I've been playing flute for about 4 years. My band director said it sounded pretty good, it hasn't had any key/pad problems (except for a screw that was loose, once). It came with the whole set! Gloves, cleaning supplies, and a tiny screw driver thing (sorry to the tool experts💀). I originally was playing the school's flute and had to eventually buy my own.

Brand new instruments have stoppers in the keys to keep them in place when shipping them! When instruments have that, we ought to let them sit for a day to allow the keys to adjust and lessen the pressure they were under from the stoppers. This is a fun video idea!
