Flute lesson

Welcome to your next flute lesson!



In this lesson, we work on the concepts of...

  • a relaxed embouchure
  • blowing a fast, focused air stream across the center of the embouchure hole
  • keeping the throat open by dropping the soft palate
    Analogies are the stifled yawn and holding a golf ball in your mouth with the lips closed
  • Taking in a lot of air fast, filling up the lungs
    Visualize your body as "Humpty Dumpty" or that you've swallowed an inner tube
  • Blow the air fast like the small, fast water stream of a garden hose
