I've played silver flute so much I gave myself a ringing in the ear if I hear something around 1000hz. Big fan now of the alto and wood flutes, as they round out the tone or make it richer in texture than most silver flutes. Irish flute, Asian bamboo flutes, alto, Indian bamboo flute, there are many choices.

Emi Ferguson You did a TEDx talk? Wow, what a cool opportunity! Thank you for linking me to it, you had a great presentation and I wholeheartedly agree with the points you made. Myself, being a non-classically trained guitar player, have gotten pretty used to music being an organic, informal thing to enjoy and share with everyone. When I began to drift into experimenting with other instruments like piano, [and subsequently classical music], it was a bit jarring at how... "locked away" the music was. I completely understand reverence and respect for the work of legendary composers, but I feel our own preservation of their work has skewed the ways in which we view it today. It's like you said, the enjoyment of music is part of our human nature, we need that visceral response, that emotional connection, for it's what made these classical pieces in the first place. I'm sure I could go on but I've already typed a lot for a KZbin comment. Thank you Ms. Emi, I love these kinds of topics. -Ryan

Hi Emi. You can enjoy the tranquil sounds of the Native American flute on www.youtube.com. Just google “Native American flute music” and any number of selections will appear on youtube. The Native American flute is one of the easiest woodwind instruments to master, as it requires very little embouchure to play. It can be made from various materials, but Cedar is the preferred wood. The Native American flute plays in the treble clef; and depending on the flute, it can play the pentatonic scale and the chromatic scale. But the best way to play is just freely improvise melodies.

+Christopher Tsiliacos Native American Flutes are great. I have quite a few. They aren't necessarily in the treble clef. They come in a big range of keys, and you do get bass ones too, but I do agree that they are perfect for improvisation., and perfect beginner's flutes as anyone can play them and they will sound great almost regardless of what you do. They are not the best for learning and mastering the more formal side of music, but the best for just playing for pure enjoyment.

"In the hearts of all mankind, of whatever race or station in life, there are inexpressible longings for something they do not now possess. This longing is implanted in the very constitution of man by a merciful God, that man may not be satisfied with his present conditions or attainments, whether bad, or good, or better. God desires that the human shall seek the best, and find it to the eternal blessing of his soul. Satan, by wily scheme and craft, has perverted these longings of the human heart. He makes men believe that this desire may be satisfied by pleasure, by wealth, by ease, by fame, by power; but those who have been thus deceived by him ( they number myriads) find all these things pall upon the sense, leaving the soul as barren and unsatisfied as before. It is God's design that this longing of the human heart should lead to the One who alone is able to satisfy it. The desire is of Him that it may lead to Him, the fullness and fulfillment of that desire. That fullness is found in Jesus the Christ, the Son of the Eternal God. "For it was the good "pleasure of the Father that in Him should all the fullness dwell;" "for in Him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily." And it is also true that "in Him ye are made full" with respect to every desire divinely implanted and normally followed."- Desire of Ages by Ellen G White Seventh Day Adventist ministries and other useful links: 1) AMAZING FACTS Prophecy Code: www.prophecycode.com/main.asp 2) Amazing Discoveries: amazingdiscoveries.org/ 3) Great Controversy by Ellen G White: egwwritings.org/media/pdf/en_GC.pdf 4) Counsels on diet by Ellen G White: egwwritings.org/media/pdf/en_CD.pdf

Hi. Which one is the “Jazz flute? “ i want tj but a jazz flute but not sure which key to buy it in. Our jazz flute like harmonicas where they have different keys? I guess they are not like a piano where you have multiple keys? I’m completely new to this. Thanks for your answers
@EmiFerguson4 жыл бұрын
This is actually quite a complicated question. Let’s try to unpack it. There are many instruments that are available in multiple keys which are determined by how long the tube of the instrument is - we call these transposing instruments. For example: Bb clarinet (longer tube than Eb clarinet = lower pitch, BUT shorter tube than A clarinet = higher pitch) A clarinet (longer tube than Bb = lower pitch) Eb clarinet (shorter tube = higher pitch) Eb saxophone (alto) (shorter tube = higher pitch) Bb saxophone (tenor) (longer tube = lower pitch) These are called transposing instruments because the frequency of the pitches played is different (a transposition) from the note that is written. For the instruments above, if a person playing a Bb clarinet sees a “C” written in the music, and fingers a C on the instrument, the pitch that is heard is actually the frequency of a Bb, a whole step lower. So… If you finger a middle C on… Bb clarinet - you hear a Bb (major second below middle C) A clarinet - you hear an A (minor third below middle C) Eb clarinet - you hear an Eb (minor third above middle C) Why do this? Many transposing instruments are members of instrument families that include lots of different sizes of those instruments (historically called consorts). This occurred because musicians and audiences liked how you could extend the range, timbre, and colors, by either “blowing up” or “shrinking” an instrument. So that performers didn’t have to use different fingerlings each time they switched instrument sizes, the concept of “transposing” was used. Music would be transposed from “C” (even if it is not in the key of C, music, in a neutral, non-transposed state is referred to as “in C” or “concert pitch”) to fit the transposition of the instrument it was written for so that the performer would have greater ease. So - if as a composer you are writing for Bb clarinet and you want to hear the pitch Bb, you would write the note on the page as a C (a whole step above). If you wanted to hear the note C, you would write the note on the page as a D (thus the performer would “finger” a D, but because the instrument is a transposing instrument in Bb, it would sound as a C.) *Recorder players are some of the few who use different fingerings each time they switch to a differently pitched recorder! Even though a clarinet might be in Bb, it doesn’t mean that they can only play in the key of Bb - in fact, they can play in any key! The term “Bb clarinet” just refers to the length of the instrument/tube, also known as the transposition of the instrument. Throughout history, there have been many transposing flutes as people had different tube lengths they were interested in playing. Today, the most commonly used transposing flutes are: Alto Flute (in G) - when you finger a “C”, the pitch you hear is a G, a fourth below. Bass flute (in C) - this flute is in C, but it is an octave lower than the regular flute. The notes produced are an octave lower than the written notes on the page. Piccolo (in C) - this flute is also in C, but is an octave higher than the regular flute. The notes produced are an octave higher than the written notes on the page. You can play in all 24 major and minor keys on all of these flutes. So - in your search for a jazz flute, all you need to look for is a regular, “C flute”. Luckily, jazz flute players and classical flute players play the same instruments, so there is also no difference there. How does this relate to a piano? As you mentioned, it is possible to play in multiple keys (all of them in fact!) on the piano. The piano is generally not referred to as a transposing instrument, or that it is “in a key” because its music is mostly written “in C” (not in the key of C! But as a “C instrument” or in “concert pitch”). However! A piano that is tuned to 415 hz (a half step below 440) could be considered a transposing instrument. If you wanted to have the pianist at 415 play in unison with another pianist on an instrument tuned to 440, the music that the 415 pianist would have to play would have to be written a half step higher on the page. This sometimes happens when you have two keyboard players - one playing a harpsichord or an organ (often tuned to 415) and another playing a piano (usually tuned to 440). How does this relate to harmonicas? This is a different can of worms that is quite different to all the discussion above and has to do with how the harmonica is tuned. Hopefully this helps a little bit in your search for a flute! This is all quite complicated and can be frustrating to read about/grasp for many professional musicians. The most important thing for you to know is that the flute you are looking for is not transposing and that all you need look for is a "C flute".

+wakeupchamp thank you! pieces are: Casterede "Etude no.5", then Bach's Allemande from Partita 1013 for baroque flute, and then Berio's "Sequenza" at the end. In the video, I am playing a flute made by Martin Wenner. Intonation-wise, the baroque flute has a lot more pitch "problems" because of the cross-fingerings you have to use (the modern flute helps to correct this with the additional keys) but perhaps what you're hearing is that it is actually pitched at a=415, so a half step lower, which changes the feeling and timbre quite a bit. However, because it is a system with only one key there is a great deal of flexibility with the pitch and it is up to the player to nuance it.
