my SO gifted a NAF for my birthday after being in love with the sound for some time. As much as i have tried i cannot get the flute to play well, i have managed to get it to sound okay covering all holes, and it took me a bit to be able to make it sound okay without covering the last hole. But the rest it seems impossible! As i have always seen online that it is a super easy instrument to play i am not sure if it is actually harder than it seems,as in each hole uncovered requires a different amount of air or other technique or if i am just useless. i do seem to be covering the holes well so idk what im doing wrong
