  • Try counting/thinking it in 6/8

  • it is really hard not to play this piece faster than supposed to... you did a good job though

  • mamma fai schifo

  • You need to be more careful with your breathing and count more. It was too fast for my liking.

    saying that i liked the sound you got out of the flute =]

  • nice but you should try to watch your breathing and play it at the speed its supposed to go. i played this at my school concert in sixth grade. nice job though

  • Nice tone but try to be more steady and watch your breathing to have it sound smoother without cutting off the phrases. I suggest that before you play any music at all , that you mark all the breath marks in the places that won`t disconnect the phrases. Also , try adding more musical expressions like dynamic contrast to make the song more lively. Be creative ! Wow , this feels weird giving feedback when I'm an amateur ... grade9 haha

  • nice upper register. uhh, i could say um..Hold ur flute higher because air is leaking, it will also improve the sound of the lower register. Breathe deeper, and i think playing slower helps.

  • very good. not much to comment on that hasn't already been said.

  • Nice job. Watch Nina's videos on articulation. You have such a nice sound and vibrato, but you waste a lot of air when you articulate. Jeanne Baxtressor also has this on her Orchestral Excerpts CD with commentary, which I'd be glad to share this track with you if you're interested. Her words and suggestions are wonderful, not to mention her interpretation is just gorgeous.

  • It was beautiful. But if you play it a little more slowly, it would be better.

  • This tempo is not too fast...in fact, it's pretty good except for rushing a bit now and then.

  • FYI, some of the best flute players in the world are men.

  • thats really good to say your playing from memory,, please look at some of my videos,, i am a flute and sax player and have a video of me playing my sax,, please leave commments xxx

  • You are playing this much to fast. It's only supposed to be played at a speed of 48 which is much slower. But other than that it's great. Keep it up!

  • sorry, you're wrong. much to slow in my opinion, but it's up to the performer to judge.

  • Nice upper register:) 5/5

  • many thanks for the replies, i've got the piano backing now so i'll do another recording soon...

  • you've got a great sound and good to see the fingers are all close the keys. Just lighten your attack on the quavers which are preceeded by quaver rests. Also work on the attack at the start of the phrases in the lento section, getting a balance between too much and not enough. Nice to see some people from the UK here too, let me know if you want to duets!

  • just one thing- it's probably because of the lack of the sheet music lol. Some notes are held too short and some passages are faster than others. Otherwise, I think you sound great.

  • Thanks for sharing your work with us.
