Erik the Flutemaker Ahava Raba Clarinet
How to play this flute
- Just like a real clarinet, it uses a mouthpiece with a reed
- You need to shape your mouth in a specific way (embouchure) to create sound
- Put your upper teeth on the mouthpiece, and softly bite down
- Fold your lower lip over your bottom teeth
- Blow with an open throat into the mouthpiece
- This sax has six fingerholes on top, and a backhole.
The musical possibilities
- Plays in an eastern sounding musical scale
- You can also play notes outside of these scales
- You can do this by half-covering some of the holes
