Hello there! Welcome to my blog exclusively devoted to teaching and learning how to play the flute. I like to think that this page will be helpful to teachers and students alike. Hopefully, some flutists will find my methods useful when it comes to teaching their own students, and my students will benefit from having some additional material to guide them on the 6 days of the week they don't have lessons! Follow my hashtag #torisflutetips on social media for even more flute content! ♬
NFA Magazine FOR FREEEE
Friday, April 24, 2020 by Tori Yaussy | free online resources
Did you know that flute magazines are a thing? The NFA (National Flute Association --- see my last post!) has very generously made the spring 2020 edition of their quarterly magazine available to EVERYONE online for FREE!! This edition features Ian Anderson, the OG rockstar flutist from the band Jethro Tull. Check out the link below to hear him play.

You'll hear lots of extended techniques including singing and playing, harmonics, beatboxing, percussive tongue, and some WACK vocalizations! Got questions about how he executes some of these techniques? Let me know in your next lesson!
