Omggg Thank you 😊 Thank you 😊 I bought a flute almost a year ago . Thought I was trying to play it Right Was Totally WAY off! Hahaha 👍 Thank you for this video ❤️❤️❤️ Thank GOD for sending me to YOU 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

I'm so glad I could help! Enjoy your flute 😊

[@bountifulblessings7256]

Thank you 😊 God bless you 🙏

[@ramosochoa418]

Thank you so much. 😊 The information using a garlic to stick the membrane was really helpful. I had been having a hard time sticking up the membrane. Thanks again. 😊

[@donaldkershaw6371]

Thanks Molly

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

Of course! 😊

[@jobarryderafera1191]

I giggled a lot while watching this video. You are a true comedian haha

[@vaness684]

Before you put the membrane you should fold it a bit, it need to have a bit of a fold for it to vibrate properly. If you can't do it well at first for beginners it is better to use a piece of transparent tape. Also you should seal where the 2 part of the flute goes together also with some garlic or special glue before puting it together, it will avoid any air to go thue it.

[@nintyjulius9996]

thanks for this! I did mine as thin as posible and all i could hear was the dimo flapping 😂

[@mattnobrega6621]

Cute video 😁👍

[@father3dollarbill]

You can use wayer for the glue. And of course that little brown stick.

[@MrSilver261]

.whilstreading a book on music on composition it recommend to learn a new instrument (ive allways liked the dizi) im thinking of buying one ,thanks a brilliant video very helpful

[@tinamartz5958]

Love watching these videos. Thought I would hear you play a little, I was curious to hear what they sound like. 😊

[@tinamartz5958]

Oh my! Looked them up. What a beautiful moving sound! Made me emotional. I can see why you were excited to get one.😊

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

Aww, thank you! I have a second video coming with lots of playing - I started editing and all together the video was soo long 😅 so part 2 is on the way! 😊

[@tinamartz5958]

@@MusicalMollyKhan Awesome! Looking forward to that! Played a flute growing up until it was stolen and then never played again. Played a little piano, but we could not afford one, took lessons anyway with my allowance and odd jobs. Cut out cardboard and drew the keys, to practice on. My teacher soon found out and wouldn't let me continue. I was heart broken. But one of my foster homes had one and I took lessons for a few years. Grateful for that.😊 But seeing and hearing this, makes me want to give it a try the flute again. Been wanting a toungue drum. But watching your videos, made me leary in getting one, not knowing if it would give me the sound I was imagining in my head. So, I purchased a hand piano to play around with for now. Anyway, enjoy your videos and learning and seeing different instruments. Thanks for sharing them.😊

@@tinamartz5958 I'm so glad your love of music has persisted through all the hardships ❤️

[@user-nh5fq4sw5t]

how do you flick off the water after playing it?

[@cup1dwon]

I think I have that exact dizi Or at least similar

[@Parasai_l]

OMG YOURE THE LADY I SAW ON THE AMAZON REVIEW

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

😅

[@panique365]

I ran out of bamboo membranes and I know this may sound like a silly question but, can I use cigarette rolling papers as a membrane? They’re of a similar thickness. If not I’ll just order some on Amazon

[@HECAROS512]

Where did you buy your Dizi?

[@musicalmiscellany]

Very cool looking instrument. From what I have read, those flutes are challenging to play. Good walkthrough with the membrane and assembly. I'm anxious to hear it.

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

I will be putting up part 2 tomorrow! It has a really cool sound 😊

[@musicalmiscellany]

@@MusicalMollyKhan Awesome. BTW, I have a tongue drum video that will go live tomorrow. In the video I specifically call out your magnet tuning video from a couple weeks ago. I think you'll like the video.

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

@@musicalmiscellany aww, thank you so much! I'm excited to see it! 😊

[@Iceland874]

The holes look big. I have tiny fingers and had to return a shakuhachi I ordered. Are the holes bigger than a C or D tin whistle? Thank you for showing us how to set it up. It sounds really mellow and mysterious. This is a super helpful video. Thanks so much!

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

I have small but long fingers, and the holes aren't at all too big! Not nearly as large as a low D tin whistle 😊

[@vaness684]

When you put your finger to tight the hole close, don't use the tip of them you need to use the thickest part of them it make it easier

[@ZeeNunew.14]

Hola una pregunta, yo compre una de estas flautas en mercado libre pero por más que soplo como he visto en otros videos no suena no se si nescecitan algo para funcionar

[@amparobulaun9008]

[@adrianojedaf]

Great video!!! where do I find/buy the membrane to cover the hole?

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

You can grab some here! amzn.to/3yYUjbo

[@adrianojedaf]

@@MusicalMollyKhan thank you!!

[@adrianojedaf]

I have another question and I hope you can help me :) Do you maybe know what application or programm do people use to edit the sound of the flute/ whistle/ dizi etc. in order to make it sound with that "eco" (I am not sure what it is) that we can listen to in some songs? Is there a proper word to describe what I mean? I am trying to google it put I dont find anything. Thank you :D

[@JJJxBBB]

Could you do the Tongyin bamboo flute if u havent

[@JJJxBBB]

Wait nvm we have the sam one

[@hellkat1123]

Where can i order a dizzi or bamboo flute?? Greece here .thx for help

[@nancyboukamel442]

amazon

[@captebbtide]

Might be a bit closer to the Mandarin pronunciation of the Dizi as "deed-zuh".

[@cabaretrc]

Am I the only one here that didn't fast forward the video just because she is so beautiful with a gorgeous smile and love the way she laughs? Then need to rewind back because your mind was somewhere else while she explains?😂🤦🏾‍♂️

[@MusicalMollyKhan]

Aww, thank you 😊

[@cabaretrc]

@@MusicalMollyKhan sorry for being honest 😬 hope that you stay happy, positive and healthy all the time.. lots of 💗 from Malaysia . You're so amazing

[@johnlemuelm.santiago6036]

Why would they put a hole if the one will used it just will cover it

[@baroquer]

Molly, you are shhhhho cute and smile-shining B)

Ha, when you're applying it it is quite strong! But after a day or two there's no smell 😊

Calling your husband "partner" is degrading and demeaning. Partner is what you call a coworker. Partner is what you call the person doing the school science project with you. Partner is what you call the person tied to you in a 3 legged race. Partner is not a title worthy of the person you marry
