Does anyone have any ideas on how to keep your fingers very close to the flute keys when playing? I`m trying to but it`s a little hard.

All it takes is tons of practice. If you want to grow accustom to the feeling, try to make little circles of tape (like you do when you`re trying to stick a paper to the wall) with the ring in the center big enough to slide your finger in and out, and a bit of extra space. (Note: make sure the sticky part is on the OUTSIDE) Then stick the loops to each of the keys your fingers are on, and put your fingers through the loops. Ideally, you`ll feel a little tug when you lift your fingers too far, and it shouldn`t hurt your flute.

Good luck,
