When playing the bamboo flute, some sounds are too high to be played. What if you want to lower it?

It is difficult for beginners to master the high-pitched area of the flute (barrel sound 5, high-pitched between 4 and 1). Upstairs, it is all wet to say that "your oral muscles are required to be particularly tight". If you can't relax your mouth, you will never be able to blow a soft and weak treble. Breathing or using your mouth to make a treble is irritating and harsh. Don't put any "dampers" in your mouth, because the things in the book are not necessarily true.

The first is the introduction of breath, and there are three techniques. First of all, beginners of abdominal breathing may never master it. Breathe the air in your body dry, tighten your chest with a belt, breathe with your abdomen as much as possible, breathe quickly and breathe slowly, feel a chill in your throat when inhaling, and find the feeling of abdominal breathing. This is the correct way for the flute to breathe. Second, practice Mr. Marty's "dog panting" technique. In summer, when the dog is very hot, I stick out my tongue and breathe quickly. We can simply imitate "the dog gasps" without using the tongue, and then use this technique to blow out various scales quickly. Third, after mastering the above two points, relax your lips and mouth, the Adam's apple sinks, your shoulders droop, play the flute with gentle breath until you can't feel it, and constantly adjust the direction and oral feeling of the flute. If you can blow out the sound with the softest breath, the pitch is enough, and the introduction of breath is completed.

After the breath introduction is completed, when playing the ultra-treble zone, try to move your chin backwards, with your head slightly lower and your shoulders extremely sunken. When I first experienced it, I felt my breath sink to my anus. . . Forgive me for explaining it a little vulgar. Breathe slowly when your mouth is relaxed. It doesn't need to be loud, but it needs accurate pitch. Then you insist on practicing the long tone and abdominal vibrato in the ultra-high tone area. If you can't play long notes, weak notes and abdominal vibrato in the ultra-high notes, it means that the breath is not used correctly and needs to be adjusted. Do not practice hard.

Finally, once again, the lips and mouth should be relaxed, and the lower lip should not press the flute hard, so it can be placed on the flute naturally. The tongue can naturally cover the lower teeth and gently press on the lower lip. It must not matter. When playing ultra-high notes, the chin must move backwards and the Adam's apple must sink, otherwise the volume of ultra-high notes will be too loud, which will destroy the harmony of music.
