Choosing Your First Dizi (Chinese Flute)

[@ymbeabeau9940]

I like the sound of the purple bamboo. A beginner here. 😅 trying to choose the best dizi now for myself.

[@nitin589]

just got a bamboo flute in d...using tape right now...excellent video sir.. I really appreciate it..

[@sparkshot289]

Hey Mr. Mac, Thanks for this informative video, as well as your other one about which key to get first. I now have a much better idea of what Dizi to get. I am a saxophone player that also doubles on clarinet, flute and piccolo, but I decided recently to expand my knowledge to the Dizi as I've also played a tiny bit of Irish flute before. Funny I should come across a Cantonese speaker introducing this to me, as my parents were from Hong Kong! Best regards, Marcus

[@Chiinnature]

try a bass A or G dizi, long ones, they are very amazing with the deep and thick tones!

[@gianmarcobenjohn5725]

I have an indian flute called " Bansuri" . the bansuri is used for carnatic music , or song

[@ابومحمد-ع]

Thank you Mr mac this was very helpful, it was hard to make sound from my new dizi I had to blow very slowly after I saw this video I covered the metal part with tape and glue and left it for a day now works fine

[@garethrichardson7817]

Thanks for the Video, I got given one from a friend trying to encourage me to take up music again. I haven't tried it yet but looking forward to learning :)

[@anthonycarollo]

Thank you for posting your knowledge. I wanted to ask, which is the most popular note to choose?

[@robkphoto5530]

D, F or G. They have them nicely organized at www.easonmusicstore.com

[@诸葛村夫-r1s]

g,f,e,d,c

[@michram]

I just went for the fate to decide for me, and didn't look up the keys of dizi, I wanted to buy, so I ended up with F key Dizi, and it's exactly what I wanted, truly wonderful sound 😁

[@Chiinnature]

try a C key or bass-G, you will love that long bass dizi so much you cannot sleep anymore

[@edwardburns7909]

Very nice video. Informative and clear.

[@lulaka3129]

So complicated,,,everything seems difficult...what one to choose ..boy! Thank you

[@lulaka3129]

Some are higher pitched,,,is that just the key you are playing? when I see them for sale, they say its either a D or an F...what does that mean?

[@SuperHyperExtra]

Thanks! How do you write the pronunciation of the cantonese word for this flute?

[@luluflowers9277]

Thank you for beautiful performance! Do you have many different kinds of Dizi to play any keys like all western songs?

[@tradingmaptan6389]

很好的笛子介绍，受益良多。谢谢楼主

[@parones]

I had to order from ebay - no one sells them where I live. I got one that is not cracked or damaged. a 2 piece one. It's okay for a first one but I bet if I spent more money I would get one that is actually easier to play because it's made better.

[@Chiinnature]

parones true, made better is actually easier to play!

[@reinakuuipo5774]

thank you 🙂

[@lasu7712]

Brand/Artist? As said here, buying online is risky, but sometime we do not have other choice, i.e. due to distance. So is there anyway or any shop or any brand/artist anyone could recommend that we can trust for quality (independent of price)? Thanks!

[@ErikaRamis]

i really wanna buy one authentic dizi cuz I'm starting to like playing flute ryt now.. but in our country its hard to find one

[@Guy-Usf4]

Where do you live? I also want to buy one.

[@hoosierstar6147]

Do you recommend any bamboo flutes off amazon?

[@wenduo4961]

What's the sound difference between one section and two section Dizi?

[@novelistusonthewater]

thank you for this video

[@Hudsonkem]

why C key with all holes closed gives G4? its messing with my mind lol

[@Diziflute-DanTang]

[@minpokhara2716]

[@damianooi8261]

Want to ask you something mak jok si. I am planning to get purple bamboo flute but my music teacher said that the redwood much stronger and nicer sound. I am confused... Also redwood cost double times expensive than purple one.. What is your opinion about iit?

[@clabert91]

@@xParadoja www.easonmusicstore.com/categories/Dizi/21 here they have something

[@patleo123]

Dear sir, can I know what is the meaning of "C Key" Dizi? Is there "G Key" or "D Key" dizi as well? What is the difference? Thanks

[@ComradeAlpharius]

There's G and D as well, and the difference is the key, the sound.

[@tr1bes]

Beginner is D which is easier. C is also good too.

[@steffyweffy777]

What’s the best key to buy ?

[@Doyourwork282]

D, F, G, C

[@damianooi8261]

your redwood flute ... may i know what key is that?

[@AverageYoutuber6615]

Sweet thank you 😁

[@mathissibon6792]

i like

[@MrGiannijazz]

Is a Qudi same than a Dizi?

[@geraldross5180]

Bamboo is actually a grass not wood. But I love your shows.

[@ymbeabeau9940]

Lol. I didn't know that either. Thanks to you.

[@fletcherriverwood8964]

Pick a cheap one for beginners actually a very good choice, many people just play it for 3 days and found they can't even make a sound out of it then they just went back to video games......
