1. First, press the first, second, and third sound holes with the first section of the index finger, ring finger, and middle finger of your right hand, then drag your thumb under the main tube of the cucurbit flute, and then use your left hand to Press the fourth and fifth sound holes with the first pads of your ring finger, index finger, and middle finger, then release your thumb and place it at the seventh sound hole below the main tube.
2. Place the cucurbit silk next to your mouth, take a deep breath slowly, take in as much air as possible, then press the breath downward, control the airflow and exhale evenly. After blowing the air against the Hulusi, control the rhythm of your breathing and maintain a steady breath.
3. Then slowly remove the fingers placed on the pores of the cucurbit flute in order, so that you can use the cucurbit flute to blow out sounds, and each sound hole can blow out a different sound. For example, loosening the first hole will blow out the bass 5, and loosening the second hole will blow out the midrange 4. Therefore, you can decide which sound hole to loosen based on the tone you want. In addition, if you want to produce a higher pitch when blowing, you need to reduce the air flow. If it is a lower pitch, you need to increase the air flow to blow the cucurbit silk.
