Introductory Video of the Dizi, Chinese Bamboo Flute

We've just finished an introductory video on some of the basics of the Dizi.

This video shows you the different parts of the Dizi. It also shows you how to hold the Dizi, the fingerings and the posture.

So with the how to fix the dimo video and this video, you should be able to get a good sound out of the Dizi and look good doing it!

If you haven't got a Dizi, head over to our store here to purchase one.

It's great fun!

(Special thanks to Joyce Poh for her help in the videos)

  2. Thanks for posting the videos, very nice indeed!

    Can you tell me a bit more about the flutes played by :

    1. The young lady at the end of the first video - what key is that flute in?

    2. The first flute played by the lady in concert - are the two flutes she played in different keys? I can't tell if they are different flutes.

    Thanks!

  4. The lady in the light purple flowing dress. I just looked at the video again and she does play two different flutes, the second one being shorter and of a higher key.
