It's hard to hear you on here, I love this piece though, I'm playing it for my grade nine RCM examination tomorrow, and it was one of my university audition pieces. Just keep working, and try to keep the tone fuller, because it sounds kind of airy.
I played this piece in my first year of university...as you probably know this is a VERY well known peice for flute and piano, and it takes alot to put it together. I noticed when you got to the middle of the piece you were speeding through there, also you can hardly hear you because the piano is too loud. I think if you work on it a bit harder and not have ur accompanist so loud it would be a lot better!!!! keep up the good work
this is very nice, but some of the runs were a bit sloppy, its just a matter of finger patterning, I'm playing this peice now (I'm 16 also) and I love it and am auditioning for colleges with it, but its very important that when you play it you watch your tempo, because you rushed a bit into the piu animato e agitato, section, even though it sounded like you knew what you were doing, maybe you were nervous? but it got a bit rushed so watch your speed :).
watch your triplets in the beginning, they are a little out of whack as well as the rhythm in general. make sure to keep a steady tempo. i think that your piu animato/agitato section was too fast, especially in comparison to the tempo you took the vivo. pay more attention to your tempo markings. during the a temp/vivo be careful of the part after the 'c' trill (staccato 16th notes) because you were playing them too fast compared to the tempo you were just playing the triplets
Hey, this is very good. I'm playing this piece for my audition to the University of Nebraska at Lincoln, and playing along with this video really helps!
Overall, very good playing. I can tell you really worked on this piece. Unfortunately, the recording was so "live" that I couldn't really hear the articulation. Do pay attention to your fingers so that they don't fly off the keys and that you're not using such a sharp angle. This will help with you with the smoothness that both the instrument and the piece requires. Keep up the good work!
wow great job how long did it take you to learn this?

It depends on how you are blowing into your flute, My teacher can make a 15 year old flute sound like a gold flute or a profesional flute.

YOU'RE AMAZING! :D
i love your tone.
& plus. you're the perfect example
of the fact that you don't need a
muramatsu or powell to play well
with a good, rich tone. :)
