Flute tone masterclass with Katherine Kemler

[@bontrom8]

I just started studying flute a month ago, and this was the first video I saved in my Flute playlist. It is so memorable and I am glad to come back to it after learning some fingerings. I have a working theory that the aiming point required for such high sounds is very small, and is centered in the larger aiming point of lower notes. This applies to my primary instrument trombone since we are both subject to the harmonic series! Thanks for helping so much in ways I can grasp!

[@rebeccajones3348]

This is so good, as an older player really struggling to get a nice tone after 3 years of playing. I love how you were told to turn your flute out, this is my biggest problem my flute teacher is working on this with me now.

[@gayleclow1450]

Such great embouchure workouts. I'll be coming back to this. So useful even for a back-to-the-flute-after-decades beginner!

[@witneyskye5556]

The high/low exercise is brilliant! I learned a similar technique from my voice coach. It was a physical and mental exercise to think low when singing high and think high when singing low. It truly works, with practice. I use this thinking when playing flute.

A true masterclass. Packed with helpful tips for everyone. Thanks for sharing. Benefits the flute world..

[@jakehammer2156]

I love all your videos, but this one is really a treat! I'm a saxophone player and doubler and I've always struggled with getting a consistent and full flute tone. This helped a ton!

[@TheFlutePractice]

I'm so glad you found it helpful! 🎶

[@lotsabirds]

This is fantastic! Especially helpful to me was this whistle tone concept! Amazing!

[@Tubluer]

I listened to this a bit and was very skeptical. But to give it a fair shake I picked up the flute and gave it a shot. Holy cats, this old gal really seriously knows what she is talking about! For beginners like me this can produce a night and day difference in five or ten minutes. Now it feels like I could blow the windows out if I wanted to, and using about the same amount of air too. The downside? Molly, the resident furball, ran away and hid in a closet. Oh well, she never liked my playing anyhow. :)

[@TheFlutePractice]

Ahhhhh! That is so exciting 😃😃😃 I hope you enjoy your new beautiful sound (even if you kitty doesn’t!)

[@Tubluer]

@@TheFlutePractice I've been having fun with it. Molly's reaction is strange, her being such a musical cat and all. Most cats yowl but Molly meows on specific notes with no glissando at all. She is soft-spoken and has lovely tone.

[@pnkcloud]

Great video. I was laughing so hard when she was holding her ear when you were playing..I know it was the proximity but it made for a good dramatic effect 😂🙉🙀

[@TheFlutePractice]

Alexandra Georgiades hehe😂😂😂 luckily most of us flute players take it as a compliment when someone is closing their ears because we are playing ‘too loud’ 😜😜😜

[@murraykriner9425]

Lots of practical areas of further study to help develop a more firmly grounded tonal quality to ones' playing of the flute. Remarkable exercises to tune the ear and help in getting us closer to being where we ought to be. Thank you so much.

[@sepantafathi7555]

Thank you very very much im starting to play the flute and i had to learn it becous my school insists on knowing two instruments(i go to a music acadamy) and im in love with it such a beautiful instrument and this vid made my life 1000000 times easyer😙

[@flutepato]

Interesantes ejercicios de sonido en la flauta, aunque parecen algo difíciles de ejecutar, los empezaré a poner en práctica. Gracias por compartir y organizar los Timestamp en el video Tatiana.

I look forward to sharing your fun and informative videos with my students but nowhere do I see your name! Thanks, Bonnie Blanchard

[@TheFlutePractice]

Hi Bonnie, I have gotten better in my more recent videos about saying my name! It is Tatiana Thaele and I am glad that you are able to share it with your students!

[@rezajamshidi5615]

You are great because of sharing such video about good relaxed embouchure and good tone this is ehat i was looking for thank you very much

[@sitarnut]

The whistle tones remind me of my Shakuhachi..similar to the "fluttering wings" technique only higher pitched on the flute.

[@alexandarevstatiev575]

Thank you for great video!

[@renatogoyzuetasaenz]

really 1000 % great video.!!.. i love you.thanks a lot !!!!!!!!

[@gaetanomarino5495]

Hello, I have not commented much, but I enjoy your videos. Do you tighten your springs or change your own pads? I watched a video of a man changing his Yamaha fish bladder pads, and he made it look easy. I live in New York, and need a reputable flute service tech. Know anyone?

[@TheFlutePractice]

Gaetano Marino hey there! I would not recommend doing it yourself because it can get quite tricky and complicated. The New York Flute Center have a great flute repair service so my advice is give them a call and go there☺️ I recognize your name here so thank you for all your support for my videos😃🎶!

[@gaetanomarino5495]

@@TheFlutePractice Thanks so much! A name of a service is excellent.

[@gaetanomarino5495]

Ps. Thank you, Tatiana. I love your name.

[@andjelazoric]

Wowww!!! 😍😍😍😍

The Twelve Days of Nutcracker hey! Yes. Here is a video with the full song and sheet music is available for sale in the description: the intro here comes right at the end of this song ☺️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppLYoXmbhciXhbM

[@christopherriley1968]

Try to play it by ear. Very satisfying and it will stay with you! Mr. R. 😀🎶

[@k.ravishankar5063]

Awesome

[@PierreC2]

I think Katherine is amazed on how good Tatiana is .lol..

[@TheFlutePractice]

PierreC2 hahaha... I felt like such a student again 😱 but always fun to keep learning

[@randomguy-dy3uy]

That’s odd I have a pretty good low register and a really good third register but I’m total garbage for the middle register

[@Osnosis]

Is that a combination Aussie-South Africa accent, or just SA?

[@rickr1062]

No hay nadie que pueda traducir los vídeos de esta chica?:( No puedo entender bien aaa

[@Hexmeta]

tips are too professional for me, I feel like I need to nitrous all the air in my lungs to blow those high notes

[@excellNexcel]

There's something cute about her - I don't think she will age gracefully though.
