It is important to drink the beer first, then burp a little, play and the a pitch will come down right away... Try that on oboe, too. It is a very funny effect.

This approach is a great ice breaker and once the flute players stop crying in laughter, they are more open and amenable to treating their Helmholtz resonators with an improved understanding of the opposing variables at play, namely stand-off distance as the major variable working in opposition to air speed.

Now, the real trick is getting the beer into the reh. in the first place.

(Any carbonated beverage will work.... it is just funnier with beer.)...:)
