I'm a sophomore at my high school. I was the first male and first sophomore piccolo player ever in my marching bands history. Good luck with your playing. It sounded good.
The airy tone is one quality that is asked for in flute timbre. The other more commonly asked for timbre is the clear, stronger/richer tone which is beautiful. She's not playing BAD because of that, no just a different style.
She probably hasn't trained for the rich timbre yet, which takes YEARS to learn well.
I am impressed that she could play airy tone style on piccolo and in tune so well! That combo is difficult. Her flute intonation was pretty good too, and she has good posture.
Umm... You played piccolo freshman year? Wow. Must be nice. Did your school like let the freshman pick first? That's odd... Unless you're really good.
Not trying to tear into you cus Ive been in ur shoes as a newbe piccolo. I would sugest trying to control the size of the hole your mouth makes. Play around making it bigger and smaller. Listen for your sound to clear up and then practice that position.
@Michelle12121996 NO YOU DON'T!!!! My piccolo as a metal head joint and plastic body. It's not the best one ever, but I love it and it sounds lovely. However, every single full metal piccolo I've ever played sounds horrendous and I wanted to crush it into a fine powder. My piccolo needed the pads replaced and I had to use a metal piccolo owned by the school...... I thought I was going to kill myself.
Its "I vow to thee my country" by Holst is it not?
I love how people can't help themselves but find fault with each others playing. I've always felt that flute players are less supportive of each other than other instruments I've played.
Your doing good imho and since this is from 2 years ago I'm sure you all kinds of awesome now.

I would like to point out that she has a prominent tear-drop in her upper lip, so she's having to play off-center which isn't all that easy to do.

Cool playing, and be sure to check Yossi Hamami concerto for piccolo "freakollo". I finally got it in piano reduction and it's the best thing ever.

Really, really airy. And bad phrasing. But I also don't have the best tone ever on my flute and piccolo so I'm not judging =]

Your Tone is not the best... Also you have to work on the rhythm. It took some time until I realized which piece you are playing.
