    Flute: The instrument that looks like jewelry. All silver, gold, and platinum. Who wears brass anymore? Like, since the dark ages?

  • The flute also sounds good solo, unaccompanied, accompanied, in small groups, in flute choirs and in orchestras. That's cool

    I can't stop myself to keep staring at my flute sometimes, just adoring how beautiful she is! I love flute!!!
  • It gives your lungs PEEP (positive end-expiratory pressure). The use of PEEP mainly has been reserved to recruit or stabilize lung units and improve oxygenation in patients who have hypoxemic respiratory failure. It has been shown that this helps the respiratory muscles to decrease the work of breathing and the amount of infiltrated-atelectatic tissues. The beneficial effects of the use of PEEP include: the improvement of oxygenation, recruitment of lung units, and improvement of compliance. Other effects can be adverse, like decreasing cardiac output, increased risk of barotrauma, and the interference with assessment of hemodynamic pressures. I have damaged my lungs from military service and began playing the flute instead if inspirometers or peak-flow meters as a form of lung therapy. The pursed lips required to play a flutes causes a back pressure pressure that keeps the alveoli in the lungs expanded which is her L0ful,for asthma, COPD and emphysema.
  • Flute: we were the first instrument Percussion: am I a joke to you?
  • @hereagain277
    My daughter, begged me to buy her a flute for the reasons you gave. She after a month stated it was too difficult to play. So when she went off to summer camp I tried to teach myself, to see if it was indeed so difficult ( I play cornet and violin). I have been hooked ever since and my daughter has now moved on to piano
  • It's a shame that this is such an underrated instrument because it can be used in just about any style of music (rock, pop, R&B, jazz, etc.), and I intend to experiment with as many different genres as I can find.
  • I just have a problem with flute being easy it is not well yes if you are playing for fun and its a chill activitie you are good to go but playing it profassionaly oh boy you need to get intonation right and spend houers trying to get a good sound its very hard to sound beautiful.
  • @Sirzacharia
    Voice is the best instrument. 1. Easy to carry 2. Makes for a lot of direct communication of expression 3. Practice almost anywhere at any moment.
  • @Sin-zj3ol
    I’ve never played the flute before but I’m starting as a way to help my depression/anxiety! My only experience before is playing the clarinet in middle school - now I’m 25 and I’m so excited to start! It’s a cheap one off of amazon but I’ll get a better one from my local music store if I like it!
  • @lottiemcc4
    I am a very sensitive musician good thing the flute is my instrument
  • @dear_totheheart
    "She wants your dedication and deepest love" - you have my heart flutes!
  • Versatility is one very good point. I love being a flute student! Thanks for the inspirational videos! Greetings from Mexico!
  • @brimarie4196
    Honestly reason number four has been my biggest motivation. I grew up playing the trumpet and despite loving band I never practiced because the noise would really upset my family. As a result I never really excelled. Now that I'm an adult I miss playing an instrument, and the flute fits right in to the life of moving around multiple apartments.
  • No reed. Reminds me of an ad for a used flute from a pawn shop saying that the mouthpiece seemed to be missing something.
  • @edigabrieli7864
    There is something magical and haunting about its tone, even Mozart agree to that. On the negative is the cost but you get a good one and it will last forever.
