I love my stellar flute. It's my favorite

[@StellarFlutes]

So glad to hear it!

Great intro to various techniques, Lily! One my favorite flutes is still a rosewood G I bought from you guys years ago (I think I got a deal because it has an extra set of "direction" or tuning holes at the foot, but that just makes it more unique). Another thing you could cover would be bending notes and "popping" or "barking" on notes.

Just got into this stuff, the R thing seams Imposible. Thanks

[@StellarFlutes]

I think some people have trouble making that sound. It's just like rolling your r in Spanish if that helps.

I will sometimes add a little sharp blow at the end of a note as I uncover it, It's hard to explain what iy sounds like but I heard Joseph Firecrow do it.

[@StellarFlutes]

I know just what you mean! I like the way that sounds as well. I should do an updated embellishment video!

[@trmwyldshade1482]

I've heard the quivering referred to as vibrato and the of the tapping of fingers called feathering. I am an extreme novice and although I knew a couple of them, I learned a couple as well. Thank you for the video. PS My vibrato sounds like a chicken hiccuping… :)

Thanks for sharing these awesome techniques 😊. I do have a question about using an amp, and mic to get echo, and reverb effects. What is a good system to buy for this. Thanks

[@StellarFlutes]

I have never use one so I'm not sure, sorry!

Yikes! Want to enlighten me on how you believe I'm being culturally inappropriate?
