Choosing a suitable flute is almost every beginner's first consideration. According to everyone's economic situation and learning purpose, it can be divided into two categories: relatively economical domestic brands and expensive foreign brands. The classification of flutes into "Made in China" and "Made Abroad" is a direct reflection of product quality, at least at present. No matter the students I know who major in flute in China or friends in foreign music circles, China flute is hardly recommended. For example, I met a flute salesman in a local musical instrument store called SAMASH. He admitted that "at least in the field of flute manufacturing, China flutes are far less competitive than their clothing and socks". The manufacture of advanced musical instruments can not be achieved by cheap labor, which requires not only advanced technology, but also a group of musicians who understand that music is "spiritual" and a sales environment to cultivate this spirituality. The so-called spirituality can be said to be a manifestation of genius. Through the solidification of the musician's hand on the flute, such spirituality naturally jumps in the notes played by such a flute. Just like cooking, the same ingredients, the same utensils, the same stove, and even the same menu, different people cook differently. Many times, it is only a little difference in salt or a few seconds of cooking that determines whether you are a "messenger of God" or a "devil of the region". )

Digress, get to the point. If you are a beginner, a general flute can meet the requirements. In the primary stage, you mainly have a preliminary understanding of this instrument, master basic playing skills, fingering, correct playing posture, daily maintenance knowledge and so on. Teachers generally recommend beginners to use the closed-hole flute, because the keys of this flute do not require very high finger position and are easy to master and play. For intermediate level players, it is necessary to start using slotted flute and keep the correct fingering. At this time, most people will think that the nickel-silver flute head can't meet the requirements of appreciation level, and changing the pure silver flute head is an inevitable choice for almost all players above the intermediate level. If it goes up, you need to buy all silver or even gold flutes according to your personal characteristics. If you, as a beginner, ask your teacher for purchase advice, and the teacher can give you many choices, then for intermediate and advanced players, the teacher will tell you to "try different flutes as much as possible, play as much as possible, and then choose the one that suits you best". Playing musical instruments needs to give them life. People communicate with musical instruments as skillfully and naturally as whistling with their own mouths, and feel that musical instruments are a part of their own bodies as with their own arms, thus achieving the ultimate state of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. Generally speaking, there is more than one flute player. For example, a flute major in a conservatory of music I know has seven flutes. It is often seen that she uses BRANNEN's 18K golden flute. I have four or five teachers, and I often see Gong Ze PA40 1.

When I first bought it, I tried my best to collect a lot of information, consulted many friends and teachers, and finally bought Yamaha -YFL22 1A student flute. Now I have simply sorted out the information at hand and shared it with you. It should be noted that I don't pay much attention to domestic brands, and friends who need domestic brands can refer to/relevant materials. Let me introduce some foreign classic brands to you.

1, Yamaha's products cover almost the whole music category. Its flute series is complete, from ordinary nickel and silver to expensive gold handwork, there are suitable choices. For beginners, many friends and teachers recommend models starting with "2", including 2 1 1, 22 1, 26 1, 27 1 and 28 1. This series of flutes are closed-hole, nickel-silver tubes, with silver-plated surfaces and zigzag arrangement of keys. Plus the characteristics of easy blowing, it is very suitable for novices.

2. Gong Ze mainly includes PA- 10 1, 202, 302 and 402 series and more advanced classic and Boston classic series. All of them are hand-made to ensure that the music played is more flexible. After comparing the flutes of major brands, many friends think that PA-202 has the purest and most beautiful sound at the same price.
