  • Your playing is so pretty. I love your tone!

  • Only two things i hate about cor anglais:

    1.) the clicky keys are so annoying and this video is a good represenntation of it. (not the only thing i'm just pointing that part out)

    2.) when the pops off the bocal. That actually happened to me one time during rehearsal. I had a long solo and my reed popped off so all you could was the crow and the keys clicking. It was funny.

  • Very inspirational! I've been researching the repertoire so I can get more comfortable playing EH. Thanks for putting this up on youtube. I really enjoyed hearing you and am very thankful to have heard this piece. Early Carter IS fun!

  • What a treat. Gorgeous tone and so consistent. It makes me realise I need more cor anglais in my life.

  • You sound beautiful. AMAZING. Are you playing on a Marigaux?

  • PRECIOSO. Muy bonito, es una combinación para mí insólita. A ver si venís a mi pueblo Priego de Córdoba en España. He visto también tu vídeo del oboe d'amore y es chulísimo. Gracias

  • very nice
