How does the rim, the blowing edge of the flute, looks like? Is it a regular kaval rim, or it has special features for playing the shakuhachi style?
I am asking after trying all these techniques on my PVC ney - after several attempts I figured that I can make a sound using persian ney technique (inserting the flute between teeth), however the shakuhachi sound that I was able to get was extremely poor and weak. I am wondering whether this is a limitation of my technique.
@a5urbanipa1: Yes, you could do it on every rim blown flute. In this case the rim is a regular persian ney one... With it it's very more difficult than with the shakuhachi one, you just need practise.
To make it go on google and type: "make bulgarian kaval". The sound you speak about is the persian ney technique, famous to be the most difficult flute technique at all. I could explain it to you but there's someone that did it better than me. Search the youtube user "persianney". His name is Kees van den Doel, he is a good canadian player... He posted some useful video lessons. :-)
Any chance you could share how you made it, and discuss how you were obtaining that sound when the pipe was verticle across your lips/teeth (0:33 - 0:58).
Buzzing through it didge style almost sounded like a duduk, or clarinet. :)
Great, thanks for sharing.
