How to choose a piccolo, how to choose a flute How to choose a flute

Choose a flute, first of all, choose bamboo, see if the bamboo with the finger hole profile has a little bit of black fiber, some bamboo will be older, so that the flute is durable, followed by look at the weight, the weight of a good flute is often heavy (there are metal joints), look at the pipe diameter again, to the appropriate thickness, to the perfect circle or elliptical is appropriate, the most important thing is to listen to the sound, the treble is crisp, the bass is thick is the top grade, like Dong Xuehua's flute is good, to a good flute ** may cost 3-5 hundred! Beginners generally use F and G tones, flutes **, generally 60 yuan - 120 yuan, good in a few hundred yuan or more. Buy a good pitch because bamboo will be deformed.

If you're just getting started, choose F. Jasmine is in G tones. If you are a specialist, a more professional teacher, or you will use other flutes later, a total of seven flutes, seven tunes.

Don't play a flute in a different tune than the score requires, it's all over when you get used to it. If you want to learn, but you don't have the determination to learn well, it is recommended to buy a flute with **200 300. Don't choose the purple bamboo flute, there are too many knots, and the sound quality will change.

If you are determined to learn it, I advise you to buy a better flute. Flute ** 800 1000. Flutes in E and F are easier to play.

Try to choose a flute with little difference in thickness between the two ends, weigh it up with a sense of concentration, the inner diameter should be round, the bamboo wall is not thin and not moderately thick, the treble of too thick material will be inferior, and the bass of too thin material will be weak. When the good material is played, the vibration is very strong, and the fingers feel numb. Intonation is the most problematic problem with bamboo flutes, and many flute lovers do not know how to identify intonation.

It can be said that a flute with an inaccurate pitch is a waste product. First, test whether the two octaves of the cylinder are accurate? (Remember, the tone of mouth must remain the same when the octave is shifted); Is it accurate to blow two octaves of the first finger hole again?

Remember, the treble must be good); Then try to blow the cylinder to make the high note of 5 Is the overtone accurate? (The flute overtones with accurate interval relations must be accurate). Is the response of the test blow sound sensitive?

The flute that is easy to play is inevitably sensitive). Finally, blow a song that you are familiar with to check whether all the interval relationships are accurate? (If the feeling of blowing out of a familiar melody is weird, it means that there is a problem with the interval relationship).

When selecting the big flute, pay attention to whether the bass "barrel sound" vibrates thickly; When choosing a small flute, pay attention to whether the treble (the cylinder is 5 and the treble 6) is easy to blow. The alto flute is the most difficult to choose (E key), it has to combine the garden run of the qu flute and the high-pitched bang flute, like a lyrical tenor. In short, a really good flute is something that can be met but not sought.

Selection of piccolo, method: First of all, in the process of buying a flute, we need to look at the bamboo of the flute, in fact, in most cases, in people's impression that the flute is made of bamboo, in fact, most of the flutes on the market are made of bamboo, but some bamboo is also made of other materials. For example, some materials such as ceramics and iron, the materials of the flutes on the market are dazzling, and the characteristics of the flutes produced are also different, and the sounds produced are even more strange.

Today, I will mainly share with you about the bamboo flute. In the process of buying flutes, how do we choose good bamboo flutes? First of all, the first point is to select a good bamboo flute by "looking", and the texture of its appearance should be stronger and more delicate.

In addition, the whole shape of the bamboo should be very straight, and the part of the bamboo should be slightly thicker. The second is to look at the thickness of the bamboo pipe, the thickness should be moderate, not too thin or too thick, under normal circumstances, the pipe wall should not be too rough, and should be as smooth as possible. The second is to see if the bamboo has some traces of insect moth, whether there are cracks and other bad phenomena, if there are these phenomena, it may lead to a short storage time in the process of use in the later stage, and the life of the bamboo is low.

Finally, it is to see whether the overall shape of the bamboo is in line with your style, whether it meets your requirements, if you can and meet some of the above good points, you can buy this bamboo flute into your bag.

1. Inspect the bamboo quality of the flute. The flute pipe requires solid bamboo (old bamboo grain). The bamboo grain is fine.

The tube is straight and rounded. The head of the flute body is generally slightly thicker than the tail, but the difference should not be too large. The tubing thickness is moderate.

The inner wall of the flute tube is flat and smooth. There are no insects and cracks in the whole body. The shape is beautiful and generous.

These requirements can be identified visually.

2. Check the intonation of the flute. The method is to test the blowing according to the standard flute or fixer (accordion, electronic organ, etc.) of the tuning instrument. After the main tone is determined, the accuracy of all the pronunciations of the flute is checked according to the interval relationship.

You can also blow each overtone to see if it is easy to sound and clean. Examining overtones is also a good way to test the intonation of real tones.

3. Check the volume of the flute. Generally speaking, loud volume is better. The flute with a large volume has a large resonance and strong vibration. There is sometimes a tingling sensation on the fingers when blowing.

4. Check the timbre of the flute. The general requirements for timbre are loose, thick, round, and bright, which depends on the quality of the flute itself on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also closely related to the film technology and playing skills.

5. Test the sensitivity of the flute. Generally speaking, it is better to breathe to the sound and not to be dull in pronunciation, and the faster the response, the better.

6. If you are a beginner, it is best to find someone who is familiar with the flute to buy it together. Checking whether the treble 6 in the fingering of the tube 5 fingering is good is also a standard for testing the quality of the flute.

Bamboo flute. The quality is mainly in the materials, production, and sound of the bamboo flute, and the selection of the flute.

It can be broken down into the following steps:

See. The appearance of a good flute should be straight, the bamboo joints are symmetrical, the appearance is free of cracks, no insect eyes, and the bamboo is older. In general, bamboo.

The darker color of the flute dress is older, but some flutes in the production of the body in order to straighten, the method of smoking and roasting, but also make the body look darker, pay attention to distinguish, (generally the color of the smoked part is darker, and the color difference with other parts of the body is larger). There is not much difference in the diameter of the head and tail of the bamboo flute. The workmanship is fine, the inside of the flute hole is smooth and smooth, there are no extra burrs, and the inlays and tuning sockets at both ends are smooth and smooth with the flute body.

OK. Two bamboo flutes in the same tone, generally speaking, the heavier one is better. However, it should be noted that the diameter of the bamboo flute should be appropriate, not too thick or too thin.

Blow. Paste the flute membrane and try to blow it, check the pitch, you can first try to blow the octave and fifth, identify whether the pitch is harmonious, and then blow the scale to see the intervals.

Whether the relationship is accurate. Finally, try whether the treble, such as the treble 1 of the cylinder as 5, can be easily blown. A good flute sound should be accurate, sensitive, and beautiful in timbre.

At present, white bamboo, purple bamboo, and phoenix eyes are commonly used in the production of flutes.

Bamboo, spotted bamboo. bitter bamboo and other materials. There are also a small number of flutes made of mahogany or synthetic materials, and the vibration and characteristics of the flutes are also different depending on the material.

The same material, but also due to the production method, the process of different, will have different performance effects, such as the sound of the flute is beautiful, the play is more relaxed, some of the flute sound is strong, suitable for playing the music with greater strength, so you can buy the flute according to each person's preferences and the different pieces of music played.

The whole set of bamboo flutes is 9 pieces, (i.e., the big G flute, the big A flute, the B flat flute, the C flute, the D flute, the E flute, the F flute, the G flute, the small A flute), if the economic conditions permit, you can buy a full set of bamboo flutes, so as to meet the performance needs of various flutes. If you are a beginner, you can also buy only the C and F flutes for pronunciation and breath practice and technique practice, and gradually supplement other flutes when playing various pieces in the future.

Buy bamboo flutes at a musical instrument store, so that it is convenient to choose directly. Nowadays, most musical instrument manufacturers carry out mail order business, and you can also contact the manufacturer directly for mail order. Relatively speaking, the more expensive the flute, the higher its material selection and production process should be, but there are some cheap flutes that can also be selected to play the flute.

For the choice of flutes. Many beginners don't know how to choose a flute that suits them, feels good, and is easy to play. Today I will teach you how to choose a good flute.

First: For children, because they have different knowledge of music theory and aesthetic concepts. For children in this period, their fingers are also relatively short.

The breath of a child is not so big. Therefore, children in this period are recommended to choose the flute in G key, because the flute in G key is relatively thin. The fingers of the flute are relatively short apart from the holes.

The flute in G is easier to play.

Second: the choice of flutes for adults. The aesthetic of an adult is different from that of a child.

And the breath of adults is also relatively large. Therefore, if you choose a flute for adults, it is recommended to be in F key. The length of the flute body in F is suitable.

The fingers of the flute are relatively well spaced apart from the holes. Adult fingers can move flexibly on the finger press holes. And the timbre of F is closer to the human ascension Zen infiltration.

Third: For self-study enthusiasts who have a certain foundation, you can choose to be in D or C tone. The C tone will be larger than that of other flutes.

It is a little more difficult for the player to master it than with other flutes. But it is best to practice long notes on the flute in C key. If you practice playing the flute in C key often, your breath will be more stable.
