Poulenc Flute Sonata, Mvmt 3, Presto giocoso

[Alyanna332]

A) I am JEALOUS! You play so beautifully. You have a beautifully focused mature sound, and so young :)

B) Congrats, I can only imagine the work that you put, in- keep it up!

Btw, have you ever played anything by Ian Clarke, or the 3 pieces by Ferroud? I think you would definitely enjoy them, and you would make them sound fantastic :)

[GeoRockMin]

@Alyanna332 Hi, Thanks!!! I love Ian Clarke!!! I worked on ZoomTube but never performed it. And I'll check out Ferroud. Thanks for the recommendation!!!

Amazing job! Now I want to play flute instead of clarinet! Lol:) what brand is your flute if you don't mind?

[GeoRockMin]

@limpyclarinet LOL!!! We'll definitely take you on Team Flute!!! I have a Powell Conservatory flute - I love it!!!

(BTW - clarinets are very cool)

What a talented young musician you are!, hope you enjoy playing all your life. The only thing that I can add is that you are a STAR! a bright one!

[sallyb5632]

Just listened to your performance. You get such a great range of colour tones from your flute - this piece positively sparkled! Well done, Emma.

[GeoRockMin]

@sallyb5632 Thanks!!! That's really nice!!! --Emma

[WorldofGino]

This is a great piece to listen to first thing in the morning!

[remnantpark]

Emma! Once again, you have improved TREMENDOUSLY over a short period of time! You are as good as an excellent college performance major/professional. You blew my mind with this piece. It takes a LOT of musicianship to play Poulenc, and you NAILED it! Awesome job! You are so gifted!

[GeoRockMin]

@remnantpark Thank you!!! :) :) !!! --Emma

[limadoblemike]

TODAY SATURDAY 2/10/2011, I SEE I LISTEN TO WITH EAST TRANQUILLITY VIDEO YOURS. AGAIN MY CONGRATULATIONS, IN THIS OCCASION MY APPLAUSE FOR YOUR SUPPORT IN PIANO. WHO WILL BE THAT LADY, BUT I DO NOT MAKE SURE YOU THAT SHE PUT MUCH SENSE AND ENERGY TO A AS DEEP INTERPRETATION AS I REACH TO SEE THAT SHE IS ALSO THIS. I NEVER STUDY MUSIC, BUT I CREATE TO KNOW HOW TO LISTEN AND TO INTERPRET. CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH.

[GeoRockMin]

@limadoblemike Hi, Thanks for watching!!! Yah, Colette is an awesome pianist. I was really lucky to work with her. She's one of the best!!!  --Emma

[karpov89]

[GeoRockMin]

@misspianoplayer100 Thank you!!! --Emma

[elizabethbennettgirl]

[nets2000]

the only reson why i started playing flute is because or this amazing girl :D

[GeoRockMin]

@nets2000 OMG!!! That's so nice!!!  I hope someday someone starts playing the flute because of you!!!

--Emma

[magdaflute]

when I saw your first video of you playing Chaminade, my thoughts were like "she's amazing, but she's definitely going to have big problems with the sound in the future, because she's playing too difficult pieces!" but this video proves how much I was wrong! you are brilliant, keep practicing, great job! I am expecting you at nearest J-P Rampal Competition ;p

[GeoRockMin]

@magdaflute Hi, Thank you!!! :) :) --Emma

[stargazerg10]

extraordinary performance!

[GeoRockMin]

@stargazerg10 :) :) !!! --Emma

[musicalpop]

Fantástica. Quando vier ao Brasil por favor me envie uma mensagem pra eu acompanhar. Parabéns, belo trabalho.

[musicalpop]

@musicalpop Não gostei da pianista, ela quer aparecer demais. Deve ser mais discreta, pois a apresentação principal é a flauta.

[wakebrdr123]

1.) absolutely fantastic job!

2.) this is like the 4th piece in a row that you've posted that I JUST finished (though yours are much better)

3.) I hope when you're eligible (because you are most certainly capable), you'll be in MCYO or DCYO or another youth orchestra because they would be HONORED to have someone of your talent

[SamMusicification]

YOU ARE AMAZINNNGGG! Either Your really this good or you have a magical flute

[GeoRockMin]

@SamMusicification  :) :) !!! --Emma

[2000flute]

a very very complex work... Again, the highest technique and musicality.

This is not just a Bravo! This is a wonderful amazing Bravo!

Thank you for the wonderful concert, Emma

Bravo!AMAZINGBravo!

[GeoRockMin]

@2000flute Hi Inna, Thanks!!! The Poulenc is so so much fun to play!!! And Colette is such an awesome pianist it was even more fun!!! I hope you're having a fun summer!!!

--Emma

[2000flute]

@GeoRockMin I want to tell you a secret. You play better than many of the students at the Moscow Conservatory. It's so funny. You just 11 years old... And our students do not know what to do with the flute...:))))

For two weeks I'll be on the Aegean Sea(Greece - Turkey). I will write you a postcard

:)

[xMinuet]

How much do you practice?

[GeoRockMin]

@xMinuet Hi, Thanks for watching!!!  I try to practice 2-1/2 to 3 hours a day. I don't know if thats alot or not so much, but it goes by really fast. --Emma

[xMinuet]

@GeoRockMin You are really good :) it shows, and yeah thats kinda a lot, what do you practice scales? i used to practice about 2 hours a day but now i cant with so much going on

[GeoRockMin]

@xMinuet Yah, scales, etudes, lots of exercises for tone and articulation, excerpts. The normal stuff. I hope you have a fun summer!!! --Emma

[xMinuet]

@GeoRockMin which books do you use?

[GeoRockMin]

@xMinuet It's just the regular books - Moyse Sonorite, Taffanel & Gaubert, Reichert, lots of Anderson etudes and the Baxtresser excerpt books. Hope that helps!!! --Emma

[gsphunter]

Absolutely Fantastic!!! Every time I listen to one of your performances, I am reminded of why I chose to play the Flute and I become even more determined to continue to play and improve. It is pure joy to hear you

[GeoRockMin]

@gsphunter Thank you!!! :) :) Have fun playing your magical flute!!! --Emma
