  • Any idea how that flute plays the G# that's written in the piece, since it only has one actual key and that's for D#?

  • Nevermind, I found it. I'll just say ick because that is a nasty fingering for G# and praise him for being able to play with that fingering.

  • well its quite simple actually, but i not going to waste my time telling some one of well.....your statis

  • is that flute able to play a chromatic scale?

  • why couldn't it?

  • most flutes i have ever seen that did not have keys could only play the diatonic scale.

  • why is that? does that mean it can only play in one key?

  • yeah, like a fife, or a penny whistle. On a recorder however, you can play two chromatic octaves, because of the double hole at the end and the thumb hole near the mouth piece. It is impossible to have a six hole flute which is chromatic, in the first harmonic. But i would imagine because they are playing bach, It is most definitely a chromatic flute.

  • anyone know the cellist?

  • Jaap Ter Linden

  • @op10no4 genius means %80 concentration/hard work and %20 talent as Einstein said...

  • beautiful music...well played...bach and koopman again...

  • wonderful and restful...very graceful..Bach at his best, as usual...

  • Restful?

    Would this would be an exceptionally good piece if it was so restful that it put you to sleep?

  • Who is the flutist? Hazelzet?

  • yes

    wilbert hazelzet

  • What instrument that looks like a flute? I know the rest, i was just wondering if you could tell me what that one was.

  • The 'instrument that looks like a flute' is just so; a flute. More specifically, a baroque transeverse flute. The Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra only uses period-specific instruments. And because the western concert flute didn't come until later on in the 18th century, they only use baroque transverse flutes.

  • Thanks, that really helps! I really felt stupid asking about it, but I wanted to know what it was. :D

  • Actually, the modern (Boehm) (the one with all the keys that is most people know about) flute was developed in the first half of the 19th century and didn't become universally accepted until around the turn of the 20th century. This is an xlnt recording on period instruments. Does anyone know where this room is they are filmed in?

  • Am I correct in thinking that it is made of wood?

  • No, you are right spinoza 1111. In fact is made of ebony and ivory rings with a silver key ( for the D#) . The majority of the flutes from the 18th century are made of ebony, boxwood or entirely in ivory. I think he is using a copy of a G.A. Rothenburgh flute, being the original made around 1750/60.

  • I think it's the Weemaels Rottenburg copy and the original is thought to be c.1720, according to Weemaels website, original pitch a=400. I'm curious now, I will check the pitch on this recording when I get a chance....

  • One of my favourite tracks from the suites.

    cheers mate

  • my favorite song, thanks bacholoji
