  • Hey this is awesome!!!!!!!! it's so awesome that it made me get a tenor recorder!!!!!! I am a devout saxophone player and learned most stuff on the recorder!!!!!!!! I also have an alto and soprano recorder, but tenor is much better!!!!!! I enjoy it very much!!!!! thanks for inspiring me!!!!!!!

  • Glad you were inspired to get a tenor recorder. They do have a beautiful tone. I love the tenor sax as well, and wish I played one!

  • Wonderful rendition of this song, thanks for sharing! I would love to get a tenor but the finger stretch is just too much for me to handle, hopefully someday I can afford one with the extra keys for small hands, but for now I'll have to be happy with my alto (which is hard enough for me!)

  • I love your video, keep it up.

  • I love your trills and vibrato. Added an element that I'd never heard in Simple Gifts before, and made it much more meaningful. Very lovely.

  • WOW! THAT IS AWESOME! I NEED TO LEARN HOW TO DO THAT! YOU MADE MY JAW DROP! :)

  • Great job, man.

  • i just been playin along to you. i play clarinet plus i got a recorder this is nice man, i really love the deep tone to these instruments and i really dont understand why it isnt used more.

  • Yeah, that's the title I know it as. I thought the tune sounded familiar. I'd love to get a tenor (but am afraid my fingers won't stretch). It sounds great!

  • Can you tell me what kind of recorder that is? Yamaha? 304b perhaps?

  • I finnally got my tenor recorder
