A friend of mine bought me a flute. In two weeks I will be going to visit this friend. I want to surprise them by playing something meaningful yet, easy on this beautiful instrument. They are from the South: any ideas?

Never played a flute in my life. I can all ready play parts of songs like:
Amazing Grace
When Johnny Comes Marching Home Again
but, I have to sort of stay in one range. I can play most instruments by ear...
Great suggestions so far...

Do you know anyone proficient in the instrument or a music teacher who could give you some pointers? If not, try Internet searches for pointers. You might find some free advice. My son is a music teacher, but I think the geographic distance would be the problem! I think playing an instrument is like giving of yourself. I took piano lessons at a young age. I wonder how much of what I learned would come back to me? Good luck.

Can you play the flute? If yes, maybe something soft and sweet from Kenny G. or a Christmas hyem. If you can't play the flute but want to impress your friends, play "Mary had a Little Lamb" (LOL) that's what I use to play :-)

My daughter has been playing flute for years so when she gets home tonight, I will ask her for help with your question and email you an answer.
What a wonderful gift that would be for your friends.
Sandy :O)

Play the following to the tune of Polly Wolly Doodle:
Oh, I went down to the Buzzard's house, playin doodle doodle, doodle, la day.
The Buzzard is a hunk o' man, playin doodle doodle, doodle, la day.
Fare thee well, fare thee well, fare thee well my ol time kin, for I'm goin to Mis'souri, for to see my sexy Buzzard, playin doodle doodle, doodle, la day.
