its not really a fair comparison . The Mura is like anywhere from $2 - 10,000 .It can`t be expected to be anywhere near as good as the Mura. I think given the MASSIVE price difference it held up pretty well , yes you have to force air through it like crazy , but , if you learn to do it on that , when you can get your hands on a nice flute , its going to be a million times easier to play . Sometimes "learning the hard way" is good . Not only that , if you aren`t sure if the flute is for you or not , its a perfect way to " have a go" so to speak .

It's very sad to me that the instruments most likely to attract someone curious to try to learn to play, those being the least expensive, and therefore the least financially risky, are also always the most frustrating, the most difficult to actually play. How many novices have been completely turned off of learning the flute, or the bass guitar, or the saxophone, because they bought something practically unplayable for someone with their skill, and they just don't realize it. It's ironic that there would probably be more music, more musicians in the world, if these sorts of instruments simply didn't exist.

The plastic under the keys is to protect them in transit so that they don't get bent out of shape/the pads don't get damaged - with better woodwind instruments cork not plastic is used and most shops/sellers would remove it before you try the instruments so you don't see it that often when buying pro instruments.

Just stumble across this video and I am amazed at your incredible skill- I believe you could coax beautiful sounds from a soda bottle! BTW, the gentleman in the photo is the world famous Lord Flatus the Flatulent Flautist, renowned for his ability to accompany his bass notes with his disciplined bodily sounds! Actually I was once a p;layer of NA flutes, shakuhachi and typical transverse bamboo flute, but never the silver flute. My current lung conditions no longer allow this but I can still admire such perfection as you display. All best wishes.

Considering that many people are allergic to nickel, making a complete flute from cupronickel is just asking for trouble.

You should try the plastic flutes! They are around 100-200$ and they sound really good in my opinion. Please try one out! Love you katie!!!

I love when people think the recorder is the flute, just makes me laugh

I’m still amazed at the sound you got from the wish flute - your flute sounds amazing in comparison still. Just goes to show - put a good flautist behind a bad flute and they will play well still. But I can imagine how frustrating trying to play that flute would be for someone less good!

3 notes in and it’s malfunctioning lol. Well, you can’t say they didn’t warn you. I mean... they mentioned that it included a screwdriver like 30 times 😂😂😂. Seriously can’t tell which flute is worse of those cheap-o’s. Any would make lovely towel bars tho
