No worries, there are plenty of really great flutes out there for you to make your choice from. Sound dramatic? Haha, It definitely sounds that way as I say it. Parts will fall off, get bent, prematurely brake, and if it is made of cheap material like soft, low-quality silver or nickel, it will not be easy to be put back together.
Honestly, it has to be manufactured correctly or the instrument simply will not last. Since the flute is such an intricate instrument. The flutes are stamped out in a factory with machines, boxed up, and send out to stores and customers without being checked.
This is a really good thing, and not all companies do it anymore. Or, some companies originally had real master technicians that would check through the instruments before they were sent out to stores to minimize defective instruments from getting through the line. It’s really hard to tell the difference between the old good ones, and the old not-good ones because some companies started out as the reputable brands back in the nineteen sixties, for example, and then changed their manufacturing process or venue (for example, started factories overseas) which resulted in a lower quality grade of metal or less precision in following exact design etc.
But, there are a lot of really old flutes floating out there that people find and try to play. Basically, we want what we are paying for. There are two things we are looking for basically, when we are acquiring a new student model flute.įirst, we are hoping the flute will be technically sound and manufactured of materials that will make it last a long time. In the online learning world, we have a lot of do-it-yourselfers, so you’ll just have to take the information I give here and use it to further educate yourself so you can do the best you are able to. No one wants one of those, right? So, I love helping make sure we get the right thing.) Here, for example when someone calls me about taking flute lessons, we discuss if they’ve already acquired a flute (and I am always in hope that they haven’t because it makes me very happy when I get to steer a new student to the highest quality flute they are able to purchase that will help ensure their success… because there is the total opposite – that is – flutes that make it really hard to learn and sound good on. Now, before we get to answering this exact question, I’d like to help you understand how the flute choosing process works inside a flute studio. And that is of: What Flute Brands Are Good? This is a very good question, and I think it deserves a little education and attention. I’m Rebecca Fuller, and today we’re going to do a little dive into the question I get all the time from you online flute learners. Welcome to the Learn Flute Podcast! Episode number eighty eight. What flute brands are good? Let’s explore the answer today.
