I just heard this song on youtube and decided I'd have a quick go working it out on flute! I'm literally just learning the flute, started about a year ago, so criticise, but constructively please! Please tell me how to improve my tone etc! :)

  • loving the cardigan, you are living up to a fine british tradition. :) i tried to play this in this key but the fingering is hard for me as ive only had my flute for a week.......ill learn some more fingerings i think...any advice for practicing chromatic runs?

  • @sacredgeometry There are great fingering charts online you can find (just google them) and then practice starting on the flutes middle C and going down chromatically to the G, then back up. Keep doing this until it sounds good then try again and again going down to F, E etc until you can play it all. This does just take practice and I still hope to improve a lot!

  • Let's hear some more. What else are you playing lately?

  • @BooRadlicious I've been learning Suite de Trois Morceaux by Godard and Poulenc's sonata for flute. I was waiting to see how the reaction to this video would be to see if it's worth recording them :)
