The bansuri, one of the oldest musical instruments in India, is a side-blown flute made of bamboo or reed with six or seven holes.

hi abi.

you should go hole by hole.

first play one hole closed, open, closed...

than two holes, one, open, one, two...

than two, open, two...


every single note need diferent holes closing, diferet blowing pressure, and diferent mouth position.
the diferent between two notes is smaler and easyer to learn.
