Fantastic! thank you!

but I was told that the second note in measure 8 is a miss print, I believe its written as a G but I was told it's supposed to be an F. Dr Garrison played it as a G, can anyone clarify?

There are misprints in Voxman's book but not in meas. 8. The Bårenreiter edition, based on 18th-century sources, gives the same pitches in meas. 8 as Voxman.

Thanks, LG

I'm pretty sure this is this most beautiful flute playing I've ever heard. One day, I hope I'd be 1/1 000 000 000th of your talent. I really hope to work with you some day. :D

Hi Leonard, just a little note to thnk you for the so nice Info. Although i do not play the flute, i just love the sound of it. The reason i run into your vid. Very nice, and you make it sound sooooo easy. ;)) Thnx once again.

Thanks for this analysis. Would it be possible for you to do a similar interpretation on Bach's Badinerie from his Suite in B minor? There's a short run across the break near the end of the piece that's particularly troublesome and I'd love to know how you approach it.

Thanks for showing how to practice this with an air or diaphragm articulation. I call this technique "playing with pop." Your explanation is great, and I like how you warn against the tut tut!

[maxthesloth93]

Okay, thanks for the info.
