Award-winning recording artist and educator, Jonny Lipford is recognized for his deeply melodic and innovative music for the modern Native American flute. Jonny is passionate about sharing the music of the Native American flute and in this songbook, you can learn how to play twelve of his iconic songs on your six-hole flute.
Songbook is available in both physical and digital versions!
This book is broken down into THREE sections, so no matter what level of flute player you are, you'll find these songs approachable.
Learn to play 12 of Jonny's songs from his Vol. 1 Songbook with clarity and confidence! This course includes tips for playing as well as multi-shot play-along videos with and without the backing track.
No matter if you're ready to play along with backing tracks, or if you're just going at your own pace right now, we've put together so many resources that will help you learn and play these songs with clarity and confidence! Each song has the following types of videos with it:
We realize that flutes are tuned to different keys, which is why we offer these backing tracks in several keys! You'll get each backing track in five different keys.
You can also get the original recorded songs so that you can take them with you on walks, drives or just for your listening pleasure!
Embellishments help spice things up and give us options in how we want to sound while playing and sharing music. In this e-course for the Native American flute, I break down thirty embellishments ranging from the simplest to the most advanced––even the nuances in these techniques.
The course is well organized with video and text lessons, as well as two quizzes where you'll hear a technique and try to answer it correctly! This is a clear and exceptional way to learn and implement all these techniques.
In addition to the lessons in the course, I also provide you with an extensive (and updated) Key To Embellishments [downloadable/printable PDF] where you'll find acronyms and definitions to these techniques.
You'll also receive my Periodic Table of Embellishments. A helpful guide to remind you of your options when you're in that creative mode!
Are you ready to unlock your flute playing?
Native American flutes are largely hand-made instruments and, whether you have one or over a hundred of them, you'll quickly realize that the tuning may be inconsistent and some notes are hard to chase down.
While this can be frustrating, we can also look at it through the lense of opportunity. This is an excellent opportunity for you to grow as a flute player while building a preference around your perfect flute.
