how old is he when he played this on the stage?

[ebflute]

17 years old

[comrademarxist]

Excellent work, but too soft. Needs fff in some places, watch intonation. Very hard piece, awesome concert performance, but what about second and third parts?

[Marchaholic15]

It sounds good though

[jjmm47]

ok so he's only 17. i'll give him that, but im just wondering if the tone quality could be caused by him not playing with the reight embouchure. 2/3 upper lip and 1/3 bottom lip. if he's playing 50/50, just like a trumpet, then that would explain the brassiness

[Sambujin]

you press down. and i hope this sound is caused by the camera. but the secend part by 2.06 is really good!

I'm agree and it's shy

[Toan104]

ugh, the tone is WEAK, and overall it was not a pleasure for the ears. The dynamics are not mezzo for the whole piece, there's ink above and below the notes too. I only heard one articulation the whole piece (and phonetically it was all variations on doh and dwoh). Intonation was hairy at times. technically it was roughly okay. The ensemble was spot on, except dynamics didn't follow the soloist enough (although the soloist *was* technically wrong).

That is a lot of flowers

[lubug1237]

Wow this sounds wonderful! I'm playing this piece for my CBDA audition and I haven't yet received it in the mail and just wanted to hear what it sounded like :)

[beagle4864]

Needs sharper articulation for the first movement to attack the notes cleanly and better dynamics would be nice. It's pretty, just not super clean. Also, I feel that the tone is spreading in the attempt to be louder. You can slowly increase that dynamic range with practice and time.

[ziggy8392]

Not bad, but a) that wasn't the whole piece, and the most difficult sections were left out b) you need to focus less on hitting the notes and more on phrasing. Some notes are held too long, others placed incorrectly, and you make mistakes because because of it. I'm not sure how much of that is due to standing up though because I can't play worth a damn standing. A good performance for a high school student, but it could have been better
