I've decided to learn how to double on the flute. I've always loved the sound and the fingering is fairly similar to the saxophone. I picked up a Gemeinhardt student model flute a week ago, and I'm having lots of fun. The flute doesn't have an octave key, so controlling which octave you're playing is all a matter of throat control. I find it easier to hit the low notes when I haven't warmed up, and my throat's relaxed. Once I've got basic note production down, this is going to be a blast. 12:01:09 PM    comment []
