You have nostrils. Learn to inhale and exhale at the same time. Become the master of your own body. Defy your limitations. You’re playing the flute, goddammit! Give it the respect it deserves, and transcend beyond your mortal limitations and grasp the freedom of the ethereal.
it’s fine, just do the circular breathing exercise, you wouldn’t be doing any other streneous activity that would make you need extra oxygen or anything
You can legitimately do this with brass instruments, I don’t know about woodwinds. You puff up your cheeks and use them as a source of air kind of like the bag on a bagpipes (‘bagpipes’ is singular I decided) while you sniff a breath through your nose. You can sustain a note until you get bored. Don’t know if you can puff out your cheeks with the mouth shape you need to play a flute.
