I guess this is why I like the idea of metal versus wood. Metal bends, and wood cracks. One being more fixable versus the other. I guess if I won the lottery I'd definitely like to own some wood flutes or piccolos seeing how much high quality wood instruments cost. My father was a guitarist and he was always concerned with humidity levels in his practice room. Some of his guitars were Gibsons one of which was an L5 which was one of his most expensive instruments. He was mainly interested in Jazz and Classical.

Hey I had a wooden oboe that an oboist/repair woman said was “cracked beyond anything she had seen”. Point is it would play when it wanted to and it was Grenadilla like your piccolo

Ahh this reminds me of my schools piccolo that I would play on. Well I mean it was a great instrument but, it actually died. I accidentally sat on it by handing a stand to my friend in the row behind me. In doing so my body lowered & I sat on the piccolo. It literally split in half. It was a composite piccolo. So now I use my metal one that I got off of ebay. I've learned to make it sound decent but it has some of the same problems that yours has such as the key sticking when playing B flat. I hate that so much. But Im able to deal with it in the meantime. Hopefully I don't hold onto it so long as you did until it gets to that breaking point.

Omg that piece you played at the end of the video sounds beautiful, what’s it called?

My clarinet cracked last summer...a LeBlanc Esprit my parents bought me my senior year if high school. It wasn't the one I wanted, but my parents knew nothing about buying instruments (like maybe take the person who will be playing it with you before you buy it). So I used it through being a clarinet performance major, then a wind ensemble player, then for several years of chamber music workshops. Finally the upper joint cracked 13 years after purchase. Someday I'll get a new (probably used) clarinet but now I'm using this as an opportunity to save up for a bass clarinet (and to just play trumpet, my other instrument, the one I secretly like better but nobody would ask me to play it because I was a clarinet major).

@JustAnotherFlutist

I'm going to guess it has something to do with how your instrument likes to play that certain note. Do you know where in your mouth it likes to be placed? You may be subconsciously moving that note to another place in my your mouth when you play pp, which would cause it to crack (in your case, lower). I tend to suggest angling the air stream way higher and increasing the air pressure from your air stream a lot (while you make your embouchure very tiny) as a starting point. :)

Hi! I'm finding/trying to find a flute to buy, so I do have some questions if you're willing to answer! I'll be grateful. What are some of the top brands for flutes? Are Sterling silver flutes better than soild silver or does it barely make a difference? So I've watched one of your previous videos and I saw that you have a rose gold flute. What are the benefits of gold or rose gold flutes?

@JustAnotherFlutist

6 жыл бұрын

Here to answer! 1) Honestly, if you just look at the list of brands on the FCNY website, those are the ones I would suggest ;) 2) Sterling silver _is_ solid silver. But there are differences between Sterling (.925 silver) and Brittania (.958 silver). Brittania silver is definitely darker than the Sterling, so it really depends on your preference. 3) I got rose gold because it was cheaper than getting yellow gold. :P As it turns out, I find that yellow gold is almost a little _too_ mellow for me, and rose gold fits the exact sound I want: mellow and blending most of the time, but you can get it to stick out like a solo flute when you want to. :)

I feel like I've ridden my luck out almost a bit too long, and I'd rather tuck him under my bed where he'll be safe, even if he's in need of repair. :(

No worries. I was just wondering how exactly that worked. Being an LDS symphony, I was wondering if they had to show up to Salt Lake with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. That's awesome that you don't have to travel constantly with the ES. I know there are symphonies in Alaska that would make their players travel. I also know that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir is constantly traveling. That's also why I was wondering if the same would be for the ES.

It's pretty great. The fact that we're local was really appealing to me, since traveling a lot really doesn't work with my work schedule. :)

I was like, "Why did you have to buy your own piccolo just for music school?" I suddenly feel very lucky for where I went to school. It was a public university of nothing special and there were ISSUES, but we had 2 Hammig piccolos for student use in ensembles and practice.

rip the picc:(

Sorry about ur piccolo joanna.

Well my clarinet died numerous times soooo... um yeah I am a very responsible parent. The first time it lost its soul is when I dropped it from the auditorium stares becuse of people pushing to get off. It broke a key so I couldn't play a note. Then the second time was very recent I started playing with it then I dropped it then the mouth piece chipped then I had to pay for it. I am still a student and the clarinet was not mine so i had to tell the teacher and that was scary but the teacher did not get mad so thank God. She also sent an email to my parents not to get made at me. Yeah I still have a lot to learn about instrument care. I am also so sorry that your piccalo died hope you get a better one bye!

Wow, thanks for sharing your stories!!! Yep, I agree, accidents are accidents. Sure, you can learn from them, but they're not 100% preventable. I'm so glad no one got mad through it all!!

She started playing the picolo and i went deaf.(i was using headphons)

OH NO!

Clean the pad thoroughly with kitchen cleaner. Commonly bend some keys slightly to avoid them clsshing. Ensure the joint is round, try youtube for tricks, good luck.

Also remember that comment I posted about the hounds of spring by Alfred reed and those runs? Yeah, I got tested and now I’m placed into symphonic band for next year. Can’t wait to get more challenging music 🎵

If you want to give it a second chance, you can always send it to me :p I can do my best to repair whatever needs to be repaired, and it would give me a chance to learn to play the picolo aswel ;)

JustAnotherFlutist thanks for making the DZ 700 review :) I have that flute and my tone is so much better now it’s like magic... seriously. I’m doing La Flute de Pan for Solo and Ensemble festival in VA, it’s a challenging piece, but it is really fun. :D

JustAnotherFlutist all the instruments I play are soooo crappy. My flute is a piece of garbage. My saxophone is over 30 years old and one of the pads is held on with electrical tape. Half the keys on my bass clarinet are broken. So I relate.

Is Rose’s piccolo a Gemeinhardt? It looks exactly like mine! lol
