yeap, i tape over the dimo hole d. its so hard...i try turning the dizi at many angle n still no sound... The basics of getting a tone from a dizi are the same as for any side-blown flute. If you can find someone who teaches or plays any sort of flute, they should be able to help you. Best wishes, David

Yes that is quite normal at the beginning. The embrochure of every dizi is different, it's like using a fountain pen. Once you've successfully made a sound resist getting any more dizis until you've mastered the embrochure of this one.

Or try, just getting the first sound (no covered holes), and then moving towards the first finger hole (top hole - left index, and then second hole - left middle finger ...then the third hole - left ring finger). Take your time! Tone control is soooo important. Your friend's spot on: it takes longer to master the change in air angle direction: deeper towards the ground for the 6 covered holes in the base octave, than no holes covered (more midstream). By the time you get to the second octave, you will notice the airstream angling/direction is so important to control the stream. Enjoy
