Pro flutist teaches you how to finger every flute note in the standard range (B0-D4). This comprehensive flute fingering tutorial starts with learning how to read a flute fingering chart. Next, learn each flute fingering in the first octave, second octave, third octave, and a few notes in the fourth octave that complete the standard range of the flute. These are all the flute notes needed to play most solo flute and orchestral repertoire.

🎥Third octave alternate fingerings: ru-vid.comxslaJa0EW88

I didn’t choose my instrument in school due to financial reasons. I had my moms hand me down clarinet. I liked my clarinet but now in my 30s am learning the flute- my preferred instrument. This lesson is making all the difference in making up for lost time! Thank you❤

@LanceSuzuki Месяц назад

Wonderful. Thanks for sharing your story and best wishes for a fulfilling musical journey with the flute! ❤️

I’m actually having that problem but I just bought a cheap one from Temu 😭💀while I’m learning

@bassethound1 7 месяцев назад

As a child I was never taught to keep the venting right pinky down and picking flute up again is a bear trying to relearn these fingerings!

@LanceSuzuki 7 месяцев назад

Some teachers can be more particular and strict about this detail than others. My teachers always have been. I promise it’s worth the effort. Happy practicing!

@pikachuchujelly7628 2 месяца назад

I play sax, which doesn't require you to press that key down, so I went through the same thing learning flute. I still leave it out sometimes on E, to avoid getting an E-flat when transitioning to D.

@AlexandraSebastien 3 месяца назад

Thank you so much for these videos. I’m a beginner and being 46 they are extremely helpful when learning on my own 🙏☺️

@Mossy179 29 дней назад

To think I classically trained for many years and didn't realize that the usual A flat pinkie is actually used during the third octave E flat.. Wow. No wonder my third octave E flats always sound less toneful. I hit up this tutorial just to see some of the alternative fourth octave fingerings. Even after 10 years of (early adulthood) training fourth octave A is about as high as I can comfortably go. Now in my late 30's and returning to the flute. Everything after that fourth octave A, my tongue/mouth seems not biologically designed to handle or something. I'm practicing Chopin's no 20 in C minor, and that 8va sequence with the fourth octave D#-B con forza is not happening. I wish! 😂Lance, do you offer any lessons for returning adult students? Thanks!

@lois2911 15 дней назад

I keep referring back to this as this is one of the most comprehensive guides on this topic. I keep zooming in to see the correct aperture size of your embouchure and your lip placement on the plate as you go up in the registers. 👍😎(Yesterday). By the way, today I tuned back in to practice and that with a tuner after having tuned my flute. The note pitches that I was hitting was 5 and 6 when I was aiming for the target 3 and 4 for the upper range. I retuned my flute to only have the same thing happened. So, I played your pitches to it and it was registering ( the tuner ) the same range as it was when I played my flute. So, I guess that's just the way it goes. Update: Nevermind the comment just above. I tried a different tuner and all is well now!!!!😊😊😊😊

@beatrizvasconcellosdebarro3959 7 месяцев назад

Hi Lance, great video as always! I have a question, I learned that the fingering for F# in the 3rd octave uses R2 instead of R3. My professor said the sound would be clearer, and I now I’m used to this position for years. Have you heard about it before? Do you think it makes any difference? Thank you!

@LanceSuzuki 7 месяцев назад

Hi Beatriz! Great question! For 3rd Octave F#, R3 is the standard fingering. However, R2 is the most popular alternate fingering. I often use R2 in orchestral/chamber music settings for tuning/blending purposes. R2 makes the pitch slightly lower and the tone slightly less bright. For sustaining a chord or playing fortissimo, these can be useful qualities. For scales and arpeggios, I will often choose R3. Also, when I want a very pure, crystal tone color, R3 is a good choice. Personally, I would not choose only one fingering to use, but would experiment and figure out how to incorporate both R2 and R3 into your playing. This is not your question, but for others wondering about first and second octave F#s, R2 should NOT be used, except for E-F# trills.

@vesta.0407 5 месяцев назад

Hi Lance, I didn't know that some flutes have the low B and I have this one music sheet that requires the low B. My flute doesn't have it. Should I play C-natural as an alternative? I did not notice before I bought the music sheet. But then it's uncomfortable to slide to E-flat. 😮‍💨

@TechTins_Projects 2 месяца назад

did you say 3rd octave and 2nd octave were the same fingering but different breath

@LanceSuzuki Месяц назад

Great question! E through B have same fingerings in 1st/2nd octaves. C and C# have same fingerings in 2nd/3rd octaves. The difference is air speed/compression.

@TechTins_Projects Месяц назад

@@LanceSuzuki thanks, looking at fingerings I can see that using alternatives to the standard fingerings in 3rd octave that same fingering can be used from C to G in 2nd and 3rd octaves. Or would you advise against the alternative fingerings in the 3rd octave. Fingerings being the same for me might be easier. But maybe that is not wise. Any suggestions are very welcome. It is just that I like the idea of keeping the same fingerings as much as I can. Hope that makes sense. I am learning by ear and will only be using flute for pop and rock music. So maybe I don't need all the registers?? Thanks again.

@SnowFaceChamcham 3 месяца назад

Got the cecilio $50 flute to try. I can't tell yet if it's a skill issue or craftsmanship but the 3rd octave is not currently possible for me. Even when I get it into that 3rd octave range it feels at least a whole step off of what i'm fingering.

@apearson79 5 месяцев назад

Hi Lance, I just found your channel and you have a really great way of explaining things. I'm a former classically trained clarinetist who hasn't played in years and am teaching myself flute. Something I'm struggling with is air capacity and not being able to go more than a few seconds without a breath (especially with no resistance on the flute) Are there exercises that target lung capacity specifically? And is this something you can talk about in a video? I'm really loving the flute and thanks for your great videos!

Thank you, Lance. Post your videos on fingering And how to manage the air are also useful to me I am practising now, the third octave and I just discovered with you there is a fourth Ahah 😅 How would you recommend to practice the third octave so exercise or you view on it please? Again, thank you for the amazing quality and work you put in this videos 😊

Is D4 the highest note possible?

@LanceSuzuki 27 дней назад

There are higher notes possible. However, for 99.9% of flute music, it is the highest note.

Beautiful Hi E. Looks like a split E mechanism but not sure. I'm sure you could produce an excellent E without the mechanism. Great video! Much better than trying to read fingering charts.

@LanceSuzuki 6 месяцев назад

Good eyes! 👀 Yes, I do have a Split-E. It is definitely a luxury and I enjoy having it. However, I’ve played on many flutes without. Thanks for watching and happy practicing!

@LanceSuzuki 6 месяцев назад

Although I have played notes above D, the times I have been asked to do so are very few. It’s definitely good to review these fingerings as necessary, but this range is standard for a reason. It covers about 99.9% of standard flute music. Thanks for watching and for your comment! ❤️

@mkf-violin 7 месяцев назад

It seems like the fingerings are harder than in violin 😁😁😁

@LanceSuzuki 7 месяцев назад

Violin seems way harder to me! We have some funky combinations but no shifts and it’s probably easier for us to figure out where to put the fingers to begin with.
