Me being very plain with you guys about how I upgraded my flute over the years and how I plan on continuing to upgrade in the future.

You can find flutes like mine here:

Flute Center of New York
https://www.flutes4sale.com/
*psst, I have a code, "JAF" that you can use for extra perks! This video wasn't sponsored by them, but you can still use the code! It will get you free shipping within the USA, 18-mo warranty on your new flute, 10-day trials instead of 7, and the ability to take 3 instruments out on trial at a time. I do earn a small commission on each flute purchased using my code from FCNY. :)

If the website does not stock the flute you're looking for, don't hesitate to just ask them! They're the largest flute dealers in the world for a reason! ;)

Hey friends! Keep those comments rolling in! I just had a pretty long night last night editing this video, so I'm gonna crawl back into bed now. :P I absolutely promise to get back to your comments, especially if you comment sometime today or tomorrow! ^_^

When a child is old enough to go to preschool, they are old enough to learn an instrument. In my opinion, the younger they start, the better they might just be.

People should be more awere of this, because - at least here in Brazil - music is not seen as profession and music teachers should have a 'profession'. And what most people don't realise is that as music teachers we also have to pay for our schools, masterclasses, festivals and still buy methods, sheet music, books on interpretation, etc on top of all that investment on instruments. People should give us more value.

Not gonna lie, I️ ended up getting a Haynes piccolo for $125. Call me a wizard, but I️ ended up getting one of the ORIGINAL Haynes piccolos. Like not even signed Wm. S Haynes, but “George Haynes”
He was the actual flutist of the Haynes brothers, if I️ remember correctly.

Wouldn’t give up that picc for the world

Me, a beginner: Seeing this video when my investment in a used Yamaha 225-S was considered pricey 😅

I wasn't even allowed to start lessons until I was 6, and then you had to start with a recorder, and then an alto, until you could choose another instrument. And then I had to learn violin because we had a violin in the house, and I could never like it. Then, finally. at last, I got a flute!

My father bought me my very first flute, when I started highschool band.... In 1997... Maybe... And just recently I bought a new intermediate flute, silver head, open holed with b footjoint. I saved up money for a year from my business and bought it while it was discounted 50%. I don't think I could have bought it otherwise. I'm an adult with a family to support, so buying an expensive, although awesome, flute would be a dream, and I'm not even a music graduate, I hope one day to be able to buy a $20,000 flute. I need to get better though, because in reality, your flute will only be as good as your ability. I have a lot to learn before committing to a better flute.

The Nuvo Toot and JFlute are really, really helpful for the younger students. All of my students even the older ones "fight" to get to play on the Toot.

I played an Armstrong open hole flute through high school because it was a school instrument and everyone else was afraid of the holes so that meant I didn't have to share it. When I went to university I got an Armstrong 80B with gold lip plate. The inside of the head joint also looks like gold but it's hard to tell if it is or if it's a reflection. I think it was about $600US in 1990. I remember through the 80s there was hardly any choice for students. American (Artley, Gemeinhardt, Armstrong...) or Yamaha.
I wish I had an offset G. I have small hands too and there weren't the gizmos you have. My flute needs an overhaul but I'm having flute envy....LOL. However I make very little money!!

I'm planning on possibly upgrading my clarinet from plastic to wood at some point. Also, we clarinet players also try to play our clarinet sideways to play it like a flute!

I have learned flute for 3 years( i;m 12), and I'm using a Le vent's flute (seems not very popular) it was still my flute and it is amazing, not very good tone though( but t has all the key that we would possibly use), but recently i have brought a piccolo!

I’ve been learning flute and before I started learning I figured out how to play my clarinet like a flute by both tilting it to the side and by taking the reed/ligature off and putting the mouthpiece on backwards 😂😂😂

I literally just put it all on my credit card with no interest as long as it’s paid in 24 months which sounded like a awesome deal to me and that’s just for a intermediate flute. Once I paid it off ill look into buying a professional one

@lillyalford2537 6 years ago

I started playing 1 year and a half ago and asked my mom and dad for a piccolo even though they are divorced and my mom got me an 1,000 dollar grenadella gemienhardt piccolo and it can go down to a low D and than my dad for Christmas and my step mom got me a cheap 40 dollar amazon flute, and the pinky key makes me have cramps in my pinky bug I still appreciate it🤣

Great video!!! I have discovered your channel recently when I started band, and I have enjoyed watching you. Can't wait to see your next one!

I’ve just upgraded to a 22k gold plated, handmade in Japan, Pearl Cantabile with Vivace headjoint. The difference between this flute and my previous instruments is remarkable 👍 Like you, it’s been a question of saving but also of selling and trading in other instruments. For piccolo I was able to get the grenaditte Pearl and then bought the wooden headjoint for it a couple of months later. I love it ! I keep an eye on a local flute centre’s website for sales and unbeatable deals when I’m on the market for a new instrument.
