dear ron robbins what she said is to make it easier for us to imagine, as she mentioned that if it is through the throat, it would be 'goaty'. but if you are professional flute player, i would humbly request you to please show us a better way, so us beginners can benefit from it. cheers.

@elizabethharris3697 3 года назад

@@flutechannel literally. I’m so thankful. I’ve sent a recording to my flute tutor , for my masters , of my practise of vibrato today. Small steps but I finally understand it. One question. When you increase to 4 and 5 per beat does your belly part need to come out each time. Feels like a work out. I have abdomen problems so it hurts if I do it too much. Just wondering if I’m expecting to feel more than I need once it gets quicker. Thank you again

@flutechannel 3 года назад

It doesn't matter to much. If you can keep the same sensation without the belly going out it should still give the same effect.

I’m a flute player, and I not going to lie, I think I’m pretty good at it. I make 100s on all of my flute test but lately I have been introduced to vibrato. We are expected to learn this at home, and I had tried every video there is and still couldn’t get it! In my whole year of my flute career never had I had something as challenging as this. I don’t know why but every time I try to go faster, it sounds like it’s slowing down, and not vibrating like yours. I can’t past the three pulses and it’s getting frustrating. I have honor band audition next moth and I’m nervous! This would be my second year and I need help, so if you can kindly tell me what I’m doing wrong, I would really appreciate it! -6th grade flute player (I made the band!)

Yes and no Isa, eventually you want to be able use different speeds of vibrato for different styles of music styles and phrasing. developing a good foundation can lead to a better understanding and how to use it in music.

@raquelvasquez5152 11 месяцев назад

What an interesting exercise. Can't wait to improve. So how exactly are you supposed to develop the vibration as I start with one note per beat, and then increase the amount each time? Like is the shaky sound being produced by changing the way you blow, or the amount of air, etc...?

@fann.9874 5 лет назад

I accidentally found out I could do it when I started playing 5 years ago 😁 I love doing it when I play slow songs just adds to the song I struggle with doing it with high notes though

@raquelvasquez5152 3 года назад

So, how do you prevent that squeaky sound that you made in the last bit of the video? Also, what do you mean by open throat? Can you also explain how to shape your lips to go from 1 note to another? I'm guessing the flute doesn't have every to play every note. I'm guessing it's like a trumpet. Like, there's only 3 valves and so you're required to change the shape of your lips to get all of the notes.

Interesting. It sounds like, with flute vibrato, the volume gets modulated more than the pitch. Like what we would call tremolo on an electric instrument. Am I off base? Non-flutist commenting here.

@03Venture 4 года назад

Van Hollingsworth : No. As an amateur flutist for over 50 years, I think you have a very valid point there.

@acidforblood 3 года назад

I started flute 2 months ago. My question is do you need to be at a particular level of flute playing before practising it or at least experimenting with it. So far I can play low C up to 2nd octave A with reasonable tone and I'm on page 45 of Trevor Wye's Beginner book and using his tone exercises for the low register in his 6 part spiral-bound book. I know 2 months is a bit of a joke, but I'm making good progress as an adult. When I was 15 and played the flute for 8 months my lung capacity and breathing was not as good as they are now. I would get dizzy but as an adult fast forward 20+ years these past 2 months I've never got dizzy while practising so my breathing is a lot better and more controlled so maybe this will make it easier.

@flutechannel 3 года назад

2 months is not a joke, it's great that your persistent and progressing! Your far in Wye, give these exercises a try and keep the ears open. Keep me up to date! Happy practicing!

@camillegreen2471 2 года назад

I adjusted how the flute is put together according to what you suggested in the video. A and B still come out higher octave; the only lower note that I can play is C. Also, I have short fingers, and particularly with my right hand, it puts major stress on my hand to reach the last two keys. It is very uncomfortable. Any suggestions about what i can do? Are there smaller flutes for people like me?

Aww thank you! Hi! You mean your belly goes in and out and not up and down? Yes every time but it eventually it becomes automatic ( if you want it to be automatic ) BUT it if you want to have full control of vibrato and be able to change it on command in a phrase of music to your own personal taste.
