No fui yo - It wasn't me
But if you want to say it wasn't me who was playing the flute everyday last week
No era / fuera / fui yo que tocaba la flauta cada día la semana pasada. My guess is it is fuera, but I don't know

You would use "fui". See this link to see why. Just mouse over the question mark and an example box will pop up as help.

I would say:
No era yo [el que/quien] tocaba la flauta. You are narrating...I'd use the imperfect.
or
No fui yo quien tocó la flauta.

In the first one I wouldn't say "el quien tocaba la flauta" but "No era yo quien tocaba la flauta",like in the second one.. - Dakie, Feb 25, 2011
Mira bien mi frase... Hay una barra entre el que y quien. Dos posibilidades: el que o quien tocaba la flauta. - gone, Feb 25, 2011
Si eso te iba a decir, con la otra forma da la impresión de que "el" permanece en ambos casos. Gracias. - Dakie, Feb 25, 2011
