These tones speak best with third octave fingerings. The vibrations occur in the lip plate, rather than in the flute tube under these circumstances creating a delicate whistle. This technique occurs when the air is moving very slowly at low pressure. While playing the note printed, simultaneously trill both trill keys and bend the pitch downward with the embouchure. This technique should dramatic and striking. Producing a sharp noise with the tongue as a separate articulation from the flute. Attention to vowel placement and consonance projection are key factors in this technique.įound in: Idyll for the Misbegotten, Federico's Little Songs for Children, Night of the Four Moons, Vox Balaenae The words should be audible, with an airy resonance from the flute tube. With the flute up to the mouth, articulate text over the tone hole. The fingers can either stay idle, or be changing fingerings. Use this formation to sing a melodic line into the flute. The lips should be almost covering the lip plate. Use this formation to sing a drone into the flute tube while changing fingerings.Įntirely cover the tone hole with the mouth.

Possible combinations for notation are: singing in unison with flute pitch, singing a steady pitch while the flute notes change, singing different notes while the flute stays on a steady pitch, or the voice and flute are performing different lines.Įntirely cover the tone hole with the mouth. Simultaneously humming and blowing air into the flute. An airy, resonance with occur in the flute tube. Quickly inhale cold air (as if startled) over the tone hole of the flute.

Sharp inhalation of breath over the tone hole. This can be executed by two ways: withĮmbouchure manipulation and covering/uncovering the tone hole, or sliding fingers off the holes of the open-hole flute.įound in: Idyll for the Misbegotten, Night of the Four Moons, Federico's Little Songs for Children Intentionally raising or lowering the pitch of a particular note. This creates a rigid and angular effect to the music. Taking the musical expressive tool, vibrato, and limiting the number of pulsations per beat. This creates a percussive resonance in the flute tube.įound in: Idyll for the Misbegotten, Night of the Four Moons The support needed to play each partial is equivalent to the normal fingering.įound in: Vox Balaenae, Idyll for the Misbegotten, Night of the Four Moons, Federico's Little Songs for ChildrenĪ technique that involves fiercely pushing down one or more keys without blowing into the flute. The notes produced are based on the natural harmonic series. Notes produced by overblowing a note, without changing fingerings. The less pressure used, the more effortless the glissando will seem.įound in : Vox Balaenae, Idyll for the Misbegotten

Slowly slide the fingers off of the holes and gently lift the fingers off the keys. Some flutists perform this by "rolling their R's", and some gargle in the throat.įound in: Vox Balaenae, Idyll for the Misbegotten, Night of the Four Moons, Federico's Little Songs for Children Roll the tongue while simultaneously play pitches.
