  • I have uploaded another version of me playing Syrinx live on my channel. I play this piece very often,and have many videos of it- will upload some other live performances of it too.. for you to compare..it is slightly different every time of course! (FYI when I recorded Syrinx in the TV studio I was exhausted -on the road touring with my baby!)

  • i think that you can't play this piece without vibrato, but it must be soft... looking for the harmonics...

  • @carrieflauta I agree with you thanks for the comment..:)

  • If you read the score and listen, she's accurate and expressive at the same time. She has rubato where Debussy says. Yes the vibrato is wide but still tasteful to me. Very beautiful overall. Some of you who hear a problem with her tone, I think it's her microphone. It's way too close. Don't do that to a flute!

  • I don't like her vibrato. It's too hard, almost violent.

  • Sometimes playing in a TV studio can be nerve racking. Did she have time to practice there to hear herself. Was it a morning program. Many variables. but I agree about the vibrato. Shaky and uneven.

  • Nice. Vibrato is OK, just some of the note endings. It's called a "terminal vibrato", e.g. Louis Armstrong uses it, but not commonly heard in classical where the vibrato is usually in the middle of the note then trails off into a vibrato-less fade kind of ending.

  • love not only the dialogue about it..but love the music!!!...

  • TAKTO BYCH CHTĚLA HRÁT

  • oh yes!!! Debussy is the man!!! maybe you would like this Piccolo player.

    just write the word FREAKOLLO, and you would get to a piccolo concerto and enjoy :)

  • Interesting. I was told the same legend but with a twist. Syrinx leaps into the river and is transformed into some reeds that Pan then takes up and begins to play.
