Step by step pan flute lessons - LESSON 1 - Posture. Breathing. Movements.

[@treasurekerala]

Found very few tutorials to learning pan flute in KZbin. Out in the few most end up promoting a pan flute or a online class.Thank you Stefan for your sincere efforts in teaching and promoting the beauty of pan flute music.

[@Panflute]

Thank you for your kind words 💛 And happy that you like my tutorials. 🙏🏼 ….well must say that I also promote a bit my music book 😅 but it’s not obligatory for these lessons and it’s something extra that students can have to learn progressively and to have music ”designed” for the pan flute. To sum up, i want to give my knowledge to people so that they have the oportunity to learn the pan flute as profound and ergonomically as it is possible in a video tutorial. ✨🎶✨

[@healthcare119]

Thank you so much Stefan.

[@AndeanPraise]

Thank you Stefan! You share a lot of practical knowledge with us. I find it very useful. I'm learning myself to play the panflute. Here, in Poland, we have our panflute maker, that is Gibonus. Greetings from Poland!

[@Panflute]

My pleasure! Musical greetings from Finland! 🎵

[@crosscarrier6847]

Thanks so much for putting up the lessons. I have been playing for about a year and a half without any proper training. I can't find any lessons online but very basic. I can find lessons for most instruments but not pan flute. I live here in the US and never heard or seen anyone playing here so I get a lot of people that ask about it here when I play outdoors. I play ok and play songs if I cheat and use a mirror to see the tubes I blow especially if there are big jumps. Wish I could learn how to ditch the mirror and memorize the tubes. Just found these lessons today and watched your first one. Excited to watch the rest thanks so much. You are very gifted. Thanks so much Dwayne

[@Panflute]

Hi! And thanks for your comment. Appreciate it a lot. I hope these lessons give you some anwers to your dilemmas. Mirror is a really good help! Then you might want to practice the jumps more... more of those are in lesson 4 & 4extra. You can exercise with me in those lessons. If tou have ideas / problems for solving in the future, just let me know, and hopefully manage solving them. 😀🎶

[@paulamirault3376]

Thanks Stefan:)! Just started to learn, got an alto panflute from Lima, Peru in bamboo:)! I play native american flutes, and adore the sound of panflutes with my acoustic guitars.

[@Panflute]

That is true! Pan flute loves the acoustic guitar! They blend perfectly 🎶🤩👍 have a great time with your new pan flute!

[@angelic8580]

Thanks thanks a lot I bought my pan flute 4 years ago but I couldnt find an effective course in my country or online, when I come back to my house I will start to train again thanks a lot

[@jose8286]

Thank you! The part about the posture opened a new world for me

[@Panflute]

Wonderful! Hopefully you stay tuned also in the future. Thanks!

[@alexanderkirko]

Thank you! I've been playing (badly) for a while, and after like 1.5 of your videos, I already have enough things to fix to last me a couple weeks.

[@Panflute]

Great to hear good news! 😀👍 🎶

[@Panflute]

Thank you! Love to share my knowledge and ideas. 🤓

[@roman_borisenko]

Good material! The most interesting thing is that I comprehended the nuances that you teach on my own, because I did not find a teacher. Now I also have my own methodology, according to which my students successfully study. Good luck and all the best!

[@Panflute]

Great to hear that you found my video useful. Stay tuned and keep pan fluting! 😎👍

[@sardipalm]

Très gentil de faire cela , en effet il y a rien en apprentissage de cette instrument. J'en joue pour mon plaisir, donc les première leçon ne sont pas pour moi, part contre certaine pourrai m'aidé a m'améliorer. ou est la suite ou quand ? Merci a toi

[@Tuttodunfiato.N.A.F]

Hi Stefan, I hope all is well. From the next tutorials please put the subtitles also in Italian? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️ Ciao Stefan, spero tutto bene. Dai prossimi tutorial metti per favore i sottotitoli anche in italiano? 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@Panflute]

Sorry for taking time. After having the English subtitles, then it goes well with the automated translator for italian. 👍

I want to buy Pan flutes But from where could I buy? Where could I find and get this types of pan flute? where can I check out ?

[@alfredoromero7605]

Thaks for the lesson. Can You please post a video about semitones,it is a little bit hard for me.

[@Panflute]

Hi! Yes there already is a video tutoria for that. Maybe easiest way is to find all my lessons from my homesite: stefan.fi/wordpress/lessons/ There is also free lesson material!

[@glendajorde9062]

Great lesson. I subscribed.

[@Panflute]

Thank you for subscribing! Hope you enjoy also the other lesson videos 🎶😀

Va multumesc foarte mult pentru aceasta lecție. Sunt de pe malul Dunării dincolo de România. Am cautat pe cineva care sa ma ajute cu lecții pentru nai. Va multumesc. Succes.

[@Panflute]

I-mi pare foarte bine sa aud ca lectiile astea va ajuta. Sanatate si numai bine si succes la nai! 😎👍

[@vismayshah5157]

Excellent explaination..👌 As a beginner, with what type of pan flute should I begin? Please guide. Thanks.

[@zoltanmajor645]

Playing musical instruments, and maybe especially the pan flute, brings peace into the world. When you used "imagine holding a gun in your hand" as an analogy for how to hold a pan flute, I shit the video off. There are too many guns in the world, in history. I'm sick of guns - as was Beethoven.

[@Panflute]

Thank you for the comment. I appreciate your point of view. Could you give me a better analog so maybe I could use it in the future? 🎶

[@andreprovost3329]

Hello Stefan, I am going to buy a pan flute, what do you sugest me a sol, do or other flute, I did play flute over 30 years ago by ear, never toke lesson but I did play a lot, when I will get my flute I want to contact you and get lesson from you, because I like the way you teache, so please get back to me soon... Many thanks

[@Panflute]

Hi! I think you might have contacted me also via e-mail and I responded to it. 😊 Cheers! Glad that you play once again this great instrument. 🤠👍

[@suzannegrandma1150]

Great explanation, thank you 😊 Can you tell us if the tuning is 440 hz or 442 hz for a wood panflute?

[@Panflute]

Thanks for the question! Probably the most common tuning is A = 442Hz. I tune my pan flutes in 443Hz or even 444Hz because it's always easier with pan flute to lower down the tuning by tilting the flute, than going higher in the pitch. Good question for future lessons! Thank You! 👍

[@nunomiguel6206]

Do you have a link to where people can buy a Pan Flutes like that? What should people be looking for when selecting a Pan Flute? What's the easiest & most versatile scale to play?

[@Panflute]

Hi! Thanks for the questions. My pan flute models can’t be bought because unfortunately the buolder has passed away. But there are some awesome builders around. Google for instance Ulitza pan flutes and Steffen Küttner. 😎 When selecting a pan flute you might prefer bamboo as a material. Rest is just by trying different pan flutes with different carvings etc. If you have a pan flute that is tuned in G-major, then that’s the easiest scale. Cheers!

[@MindBodyMoodMusic]

Hi, where can i get the same pan flute with 22 pipes just as yours please? I like that model, thank you in advance

[@Panflute]

This model is no longer existing because the original builder Ion Cretu has passed away. My new exact same versions, or actually even better ones are from Taiwan made by dear friend Tsai Hsueh Jen. But at the moment these models are not for sale. Maybe in the future they will be available for all. 🤍🖤🤍

[@gabettu]

hello i am a complete beginner and bought Cusco QT-21 3-octave panpipes. i cant play the low notes. is it my problem or something wrong with panflute? thanks

[@Panflute]

I am sorry, but I am not familiar with that pan flute. Maybe you make one day a video and share it and we can maybe find a solution. 🙂🎵

[@Internationalbodyguardschool]

Hello dear friend, teacher and artist. I am Alessio Peluso from Italy. I am writing to you for two reasons: the first is that I want to buy your book (the € 27 one). The second reason is that I would like to take online lessons from you on the Skype platform. I would like to know the price per lesson. Where do I order the book and how soon would it arrive? A thousand thanks Soon

[@Panflute]

Sorry for taking so long to answer. I just noticed your comment. 😫 www.muscal-verlag.com/htmls/10_muscalverlag_en/mv_stanciu.html Check that link and write e-mail and order. ✨🥳✨

[@mariopalomino8902]

Stefan what sound system should I use when I play my panflute so it can sounds better????

[@Panflute]

I prefer AKG C1000S as microphone. But now using a lot of USB microphone: Maratz MPM 1000U. A lot depends how you edit etc... Cheers!!!

[@Jordanezul1]

@@Panflute Yes AKG C1000S as microphon and Senheiser are the best!

[@cabijista1]

So do all pan flutes get lower in register to the right side of the instrument? That is so bizarre, it’s basically backward from any other instrument. The only other instrument I can think that does that is a left-handed guitar

[@Panflute]

This (bass tubes on right side as I play) is the traditional way but for instance left handed people use the mirror version. And! Almost everybody in Asia have the bass tubes on the left side. So there is nowadays a lot of people using this ”mirror version”. ↔️🎶

[@cabijista1]

@@Panflute I see, thanks very much for the reply. I’ve been thinking of getting a pan flute cause I have always loved the sounds, but i come from a piano background and I could imagine having the notes run in the opposite direction could get really confusing. Maybe I should just start off with the mirror version though? Might be a stupid question but could you not just take a normal pan flute and flip it round so the lower notes are on the left, or do you have to buy a specialized mirror version?

[@user1726]

Can I learn to play if i am not musician and never played any instrument?

[@Panflute]

Definitely you can! Try it out! 🎶🥳

[@saotrucbathienflute6660]

Dear, where I can buy a panflute like yours? or would you mind giving me the specifications of your panflute ( bore diameter of each tube)? thanks.

[@Panflute]

Hi! Thank you for you message. I am not sure if I can help you, but please contact me via my e-mail that you find in my lessons. 🎵

[@jaunisbayley854]

How do I select the correct pan flute left handed or right???

[@Panflute]

Most people in ”west” use right handed. Most people in Asia use left handed. My opinion is that as violin makes vibrato with left hand, it is very logical to make the same way with pan flute, so then the right handed would be my choice (long tubes on the right side). If you are right handed, your right hand is presumably stronger. Then it’s easier to hold the pan flute. But these are mostly opinions and traditions. 😀🎶

Which pan flute do you recommend for a beginner? I am looking to buy one

For a secure and cheap choice, this is a decent pan flute for a beginner. www.thomann.de/gb/solist_panpipes_alto.htm?sid=b3dc18bdba6a7512d43582c6608b9219

Da binenteles. Tocmai am vazut si intrebarea voastra din alt video ”step by step” si am raspuns…. Deci eu as propune sa incercati nauri de la Ulitza sau Steffen Küttner, sau daca din Romania doriti, ar fi naiurile Preda. 🎶

That is a good point! But the position of hair deyer seems to be a bit different for the index finger. But I imagine rather a water gun rather a real one 🔫 Let’s hope that these violences stop in the world and especially in the USA, where this is a very big problem. 🙏🏼
