Wow! Great vid. I am just discovering the Hulusi Drone flute. Cool. Love your enthusiasm, BTW. You're the only vid I've found that explains drone pipe operation. Thank you. I am heavily into drone musical electronic synthesizers and samplers, so this is right up my alley. 🙏🙏🙏💙💙🙏🙏🙏

Once you've gotten more comfortable with the hulusi, I highly suggest trying one that's made with natural materials, as it will have a different timbre to the resin one you have now. You can also find hulusi that have holes at the bottom that you close with stoppers that slide up and down.

@@MusicalMollyKhan Can I ask about the foldable glockenspiel that you have? Have you played it in an orchestra? I would like a glockenspiel so that I can include one in my arrangements for community orchestra but I don't know if a budget one like this will sound over the rest of the orchestra. How loud is it? (It can be hard to tell listening through a KZbin video.

Stumbled across this channel looking for Hulusi music. I see we share a common love for various musical instruments. In my lifetime, I've tried: - Accordion (my first instrument) - Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, 12 String Guitar, Classical Guitar - Recorders (the whole range: from sopranino to Bass, in wood and plastic) - Psaltery - David's Harp (similar to the ones you have on your wall) - Jew's Harp (traditional metal, and some wood ones) - Mandolin - Octave Mandolin - Cello - Concert Flute - A wooden Clarinet-like instrument (Renaissance style) - Crumhorns (a set of 3: soprano, alto, tenor in PVC) - Shuttle Pipes (made in Canada) - Small Pipes (bellows blown) - Grand Cornamuse (French Bagpipe) - School-grade Glockenspiel - Better-grade Glockenspiel - Lute - Many small percussion: triangles, bells, cymbals, Cabasa - Dulcian (or Curtal): this was a lovely bassoon-like bass instrument from the Renaissance - Bass Rackett - Chinese Flute - Melodica - Small harp (made from a kit...looked very nice, but did not play well) ...and probably a few others I've forgotten to list. I only have a few of these left now, as it's impossible to play them all regularly! And besides, I had to live in an RV for many years, and there was no room for lots of instruments, or time to play them.

It does! Interestingly, reed organs make sound in a very similar way, by pushing air through a reed. Instruments are so fascinating!

Enjoying your vids!😂🤗🥰 India has very interesting drone flutes, often used in snake charming, shaman's work, and musical ensembles. I used to have a clay drone flute from South America, used for birthing. Beautiful instruments! Replacing the reed when that time comes eventually is a task, best left for professionals' care. Looking forward!

I found out that China has its own sheet music. Just translate the word "sheet music" in chinese, also the word "hulusi" and know a lot of chinese songs for the instrument. Just need to know the difference in numbers that is easier for this kind of instrument and listen a lot to chinese songs
@gabrielvieira98325 ай бұрын
Also you can do chromatics very similar to the recorder, but usually in chinese traditional songs you don't need them, but it can help to take some tunes from ear if you want. You can find in musescore

the breath pressure is similar to that of a Bagpipe. They are in the same family... also the same concept as like the melodica.

When you mentioned it making a sound when you stopped to take a breath, I remembered that you can supposedly do circular breathing with the Hulusi. I thought I'd let you know in case you didn't already know :)

That's pretty normal. Your triggering the reed by sucking in a bit when you take your breath. You have to make sure and stop the note entirely before you breathe. Takes practice!

Hey! Thanks for the video - do you know the difference or have the comparison between the different keys? I believe this one is in C but have you tried in key of F or G?
@SeQFreQ369 Жыл бұрын
Hi Pedro, the fingering is the same on all of them, but I found that the holes on the c were too close together for my fingers, I chose F, the deepest with the holes a comfortable distance apart. c and b are usually recommended for younger players with small hands, F and G for adult size fingers. They are a lot of fun, way more air needed with both drones on though.
