The video is out of sync!! Very distracting but still informative. For those of you who want to watch the video in sync than go to Gemeinhardt's(could be spelt wrong) website and go to their video tab and there you will the find the video.

I have a question about this: when you play the pop, do u use it for everything? i mean dont get me wrong but. what do u do for fast passages, for example the solo for the russian easter overture by Rimsky Korsakov, after the cadenza there are some 16th notes? do u just support? or do u pop for every single note?

The video is out of sync :((

@Dragonfly3176 This is the detache video I was telling you about!

[thebulgariankgbleade]

look here. "pop" or what is called by rampal (my dad was a pro flute player who won amazing merit in his early days but chose the teaching life instead) the "abdominal accent". though you have a very nice and smooth abdominal accent, you use it too often. mainly it should be used to accent, or to give music a beat. this is especially true in sustained slurred jumps like in the beginning of the second excerpt from the concerto you play. i would suggest you refrain from over using it.

[motormanish]

Let's hear you play it.

[snape10154]

@thebulgariankgbleade my dad is a very successful brain surgeon but i don't tell people how to fix a frontal lobe. I think if she wants to play that way, she can

[jazzflutist]

Without the pop - sounds like a rank beginner. With the pop: better (sounds like a real professional top-flight flute player).  This was obvious on first listen. Everyone's pop might be different, but Nina has a nice one!

[musiquedechristo]

i love the excitement and the bounciness to the songs with pop!!! it adds so much more depth and style to the selection! thanks!

[VideoGearHead]

hm...nice...pop...another tool in the box to use...thanks!

[blueinu26]

ok i like it better without the pop. i think it is a lot smoother and easier to listen to.

[dasteufelhund]

Or, it's also called breath kick, meaning engaging your support behind every articulation.

[onimotoko]

sounds more subtle & subdued, more gentle & relaxing without pop.

But with pop, it is more exciting & alive.

[Rexicano]

I actually like it better without the Pop.

[Rexicanoo]

I like it better without the Pop too. The Pop sounds too forced and aggresive. It is a flute NOT a trumpet people! Tone is down some!

[aufweiss]

@Rexicanoo do you enjoy annoying people and being disliked? i (and many people in youtube and real world) think u r a very special kind of loser. what do you do for a living? ur mom still feed you?

[satoshi2oll]

There's a really big difference! Thanks for explaining :)

[tcrflute1994]

Ok, so i am a it confused. When your using the pop are you not supposed to tongue???

[dolls4jessica2001]

i am wondering this too

[piccguy94]

No, I think what she's trying to say is that when you "pop", you back up an articulation with a rush/energy. You still tongue it, only you're giving it strength and drive!

[mollyphloot07]

What's the name of the second passage you play? I love the way it sounds .. I'd love to get the sheet music for it.

[kateakakara]

It is the last part of the first movement of the Leclair Sonata in C. You can get it in a collection with a play along CD at the music minus one site.

[gah1957]

I like the "without" as much as the "with." They both sound beautiful. One like a bird (pop) and running water (without).

[sugarpacketchad]

I'm really sweet on that "pop" technique! When I see you play the flute, it makes me smile ~:-)

[icygirl8]

That's cool that you posted a video about this. I remember when my flute teacher taught this kind of technique to me. She described it as making the note as sort of a "teardrop" rather than just a dot or a line. One of the pieces I'm working on sounds a lot like the 2nd example you played. I will keep this video in mind next time I practice.

[kfunk01]

wow can definitely tell the difference... Cool... I have to practice this now... Just to see if I have been doing it at all. It adds a ton of energy... Cool

[erv826]

I've been using this technique without even noticing...

Now i know why my teachers said that my sound was very energetic.

[iamtherealzim]

wow... every note is soo clear! great video!

[jrbrook76]

Great technique, I use this as well, especially with the Bach C Major. Any time my articulation is sounding lazy in a piece of music, I practice with these "tongueless attacks". It's really great because you can't get a nice "pop" as Nina puts it without supporting the air correctly, so it really teaches something about support. It's fun to be amazed at what comes out when you've mastered a passage with the tongueless attacks and add the tongue back!

[sebastianpire]

Nice as usual! I`m gonna use it now! Thanks for such nice video

[Rodier1128]

Ill try this today in band, as its 6:00 in the morning! =P it makes the sound louder, more energetic and such. But not more clear. I say for clarity, regular tonguing is the way to go.

[strav12]

Um, where did that awesome end piece come from????!!! Pop On Music Lovers!

[ihateu20]

i think i do that naturally

[FenAllo1]

I do as well, but this is a fantastic way of teaching it!
