At 1.17 a flute goes terribly wrong. Too bad hannibal lecter is not a real person

@Kreutzersonata37 That wasn't a flute. That was an oboe.

@feebaslover11 That wasn't an oboe. That was a clarinet :)

Great interpretation. It sounds like an early XXth C. jazzy music, like in Gerschwin or sth.

[Guitarriff1988ii]

The conductor looks like a stoner.

Gotta love that flute solo at the end. Excellent use of the low register, that's something not many composers have done for the flute.

fantastic. congradjulations to both the conductor and the ortchestra

84 to the bar...hmmm. This is the low end of the tempo. I like it. It's lighter that way. After all they're flitting fairies not fat dwarves trying to run from Bottom or something equally odius!
