Egyptian Flute (Erik the Flutemaker)

[@Elasciapurgrattar]

I'm almost losing my hopes to be able to extract a sound from these things.... but watching you gave a new sprint!

[@ILoveCookiees]

Never give up!! ♥️ glad I can help encourage you!

[@skyedge3407]

It took me one week to be able to play the Erik flutes.

[@edzu2771]

@@ILoveCookiees Hi Savannah; is there a chance you could share what notes the scale is composed of? I have some bamboo and would like to make a flute; the sound that comes out of the one in the video is so emotional.

[@PotatoGunCamper]

Ive had mine for 2 weeks and slowly my embouchure is improving. My tone is still quite inconsistent, but I grew up a band kids so I'm used to hearing bad newbie playing.

[@josemigueldeazevedo2183]

You play with your heart, that's really cool

[@IIVVBlues]

Nice. I purchased a dark stained one two years ago. I play it in the lower ranges and just let the notes come, while I concentrate on my breathing and allow the flute play me. Erik makes some fine instruments.

[@salestransformationservice6202]

Thanks for playing my ancestors instruments. I wish you visit the Egyptian museum and make a replica of the ancient flutes there. It will be so etherial to hear the tunes played thousands of years ago

[@czntrm]

Wonderful job playing! I can't wait to get my own Egyptian flute. I have Erik's double pennywhistle, Kokin, and Counselor flutes which I've been enjoying. Thanks for sharing this video!

[@ILoveCookiees]

Thanks for your comment! :) Those three that you have are awesome! And you should definitely get the Egyptian. It's fun to play!

[@WastedTimeBros]

so blowing softly and slowly brings a lower octave and strongly and quickly brings the upper octave. amazing, i just got my flute and managed to get the low ocrave sound and unintentionally made the higher octave sound.

[@anshumanbhagowati]

Hi ... Love from India! ۔.. I got the Egyptian and Arabian flutes from Erik apart from a bamboo sax. And they are great. Line you I am not really a flute player but I love his instruments. God bless.

Music that comes from the heart is true music if it comes from paper then it is someone else's heart that made it you are helping that person bring it to the world.

[@LeftHandPanther]

Mine is in the mail..Can't wait to get it!!!

[@Tjoppy]

Beautiful!

[@MrJbchocolate]

After I saw you I ordered one from Erik. I relate, not a musician either but enjoy learning new good things. Thanks for your presentation. 🙏

[@Robin_0011]

you're great

[@lindareese4579]

Thank you so very much!!!! Lovely music!

[@gypsyman535]

You play such beautiful music. I am a big fan of yours!! I just purchased and received mine from Erik. Yes he's great. I have big hands myself and it was a bit of a challenge getting use to it. Im use to playing my Arabian flute, Much smaller. Well keep up the great work and thanks for your video and for sharing your wonderful gift of music with us, kudos to you :)

[@ILoveCookiees]

Thank you sooo much for your support! Have fun fluting! :)

[@E3C6H9]

Nice to find your channel, I'll try and venture to build some flutes on exotic scales. I live in Brazil and I have plenty of bamboo options here. Thank you for the informations.

Cara, você fabrica flautas?

@@E3C6H9 Me tira uma dúvida, por gentileza? A flauta que a jovem toca no vídeo ... o lado oposto ao da boca na flauta é tampado mesmo? Tem tipo um "tampão preto" é fechado os dois lados nesse modelo? Obrigado desde já, estou tentando reproduzir esse modelo e sou um completo iniciante.

Eu fabriquei uma igual esta as notas são: D F# G A Bb D

[@grimreapybones2875]

Hey I'm just curious about something Could you possibly tell me what the diameter of the flute and the inside hole is? Aswell as the spacing between the holes? I have always wanted to make a flute like this one but I can't find any reliable sources on what exactly makes the sound so different from other flutes It obviously has to do with the length and material used But also with the thickness and inside diameter So any information will be appreciated

[@reilee5795]

***I play the c western and alto, I suggest that you keep your left picky at rest on the flute instead of low and bent (talking about the first few bars of the piece you played), it will keep less tension and helps not get your finger stressed, also, it helps with an overall balance of the flute; especially when you use less fingers.

[@reilee5795]

But the sound is really nice and beautifully.

[@kentoliveira7748]

Wow that's cool !!! Where did you buy this flute from??? 😊/🇧🇷

[@horhegr]

Can you give some measurements of the flute? like the bore diameter, total flute length, and hole spacing?

[@MateoEEUU]

Savannah thanks for the great videos! I hope to order a flue from Erik the Flutemaker soon :) Have you tried any of Erik’s pan pipes? I’m interested in those as well!

[@elzio2355]

Hello! You're an amazing player! Do you have a copy of the notes/music sheet of the music you played? Thank you!

[@ernesttomic3250]

Are you still playing the flute? Hope so.

[@Chum_chumi]

Love this and the scale is great! Do you know the notes from bottom to top?

[@rickymullins3844]

Nice !! I thought about buying this one also !!

[@Its.Ella_2.0]

What’s the difference between the $135 Egyptian flute Erik made and the poor man’s flute that is 95? Is there a difference in sound or quality? Which one do you prefer I really want to get one

[@fluteshop6439]

Nice vibrato!

I am from Indonesia.. Can you help me to make arabian flute? Thnk you

[@kathymehrzad9491]

Nice playing. Any chance you've got an Arabian flute in that group? I'm wondering how more difficult it is to play the Arabian flute vs. the Egyptian? Am thinking about the Egyptian flute for myself and I have small hands and thin fingers. Thanks for any thoughts you can share.

[@ILoveCookiees]

Is it the Egyptian scale D F G Ab C D?

[@ILoveCookiees]

Hi, thank you for your question. To be completely honest, I do not know. I'm not too familiar with scales, but I will ask the flutemaker and get back to you!

[@ILoveCookiees]

Hi, Erik the Flutemaker said that the scale is: D F# G A A# and back hole is D.

[@forest9939]

Thank you very much for your help. I also watched and appreciated your Arabian flute playing video. Admire your musical talent. Can you tell me the scale of the Arabian flute?

[@ILoveCookiees]

Thank you so much for your kind words! :) Erik has a few Arabians, but the one in my video is the medium. Here are the scales: C Arabian Penny Whistle: C, C#, E, F, G, G#, A# Medium Arabian: A A# C# D E F G Large Arabian: E F G# A B C D#
