About this product

Product Information

Simple flutes of bamboo, wood, metal, plastic, or clay can be a joy to play and make. This book gives you the basics of simple flute playing, then offers guidelines for making flutes of your own from a variety of materials. It even includes a handy chart for where to put the holes. Simple Flutes is a must for simple flute players and makers! ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// Mark Shepard is the author of How to Love Your Flute, hailed by Paul Horn as a model for our times, as well as the craft guide Simple Flutes. For many years, he was a professional artisan, making and selling flutes of bamboo or plastic. ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// Contains the essense of a tremendous amount of experience. -- Sam Hinton, Sing Out An excellent overview. -- Monty Levenson, Tai Hei Shakuhachi A slim, elegantly presented, and highly practical guide. . . . First-rate, user friendly. -- Midwest Book Review, Aug. 2002 This thin volume contains a wealth of information. -- Linda Dailey Paulson, Dirty Linen, Oct.-Nov. 2002 ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// CONTENTS 1 PLAYING The Sound The Hands The Notes Second Octave Sharps and Flats Breath and Tonguing Making Music Flute Care 2 MAKING Flute Qualities The Flute Tube The Mouthhole The Fingerholes Tuning Stoppers Finishes Plastic Bamboo Wood Clay Metal Other ///////////////////////////////////////////////////// SAMPLE Here are the two most important rules for tuning: -- A hole will give a higher note if it is placed closer to the mouthhole. It will give a lower note if placed farther away. -- A hole will give a higher note if made larger. It will give a lower note if smaller. These rules mean you can raise a note by enlarging the hole or by placing the hole closer to the mouthhole. You can lower the note by using a smaller hole or by placing the hole farther from the mouthhole. It also means you can change the hole size and its placement without changing the note. A larger hole could be placed farther from the mouthhole, or a smaller hole placed closer to the mouthhole.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

Book arrived safely packaged in perfect order. Item as described, new. Thank you Rarewaves Outlet. Fascinating book, great addition to my collection. Great price. Would recommended this seller. No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
