Excerpt:

I am going to help you get started on your new Native American style flute. I’ve been making and playing the Native American style flute for more than ten years. I am entirely (or almost entirely) self-taught. But, I now realize that if I had been given a lesson or two along the way my playing would have progressed that much faster. So I thought that I might help others if I put down in writing what I have learned.

In this lesson I am not going to teach you about notes, scales, intervals, tempo, theory or any of the other facets of music. Instead, you are going to learn how to make beautiful sounds on your flute.

I imagine you feel excited and a bit nervous if this is your first experience with the Native American flute. If you’re like me (and most other people) you may have tried various other instruments in school and like me you gave them up at some point. Maybe you studied piano or one of the other complicated and difficult modern, highly technical musical instruments. Unlike the Native American style flute these instruments were developed over centuries to meet the needs of professional musicians.
