I know this has nothing to do with the subject of the video, but: when you listen to someone speaking a language related to your own you can really hear how languages diverged just by people saying things in slightly different ways over time. I mean there are parts where it _almost_ sounds like he's just speaking English with an accent. I think that's neat.
It is so wonderful to hear these instruments. I was recently in Vienna and there were hundreds of recorders and other renaissance and baroque instruments just in cases in a museum. They are beautiful, to be sure, but meant to be played.

This is a wonderful way to spen 3 minutes. I want a recorder in Eb now. it sounded wonderful. Why didn't you play the Hotteterre?
Who are you by the way? Do you have CDs - are you a teacher? In what school?
Thanks

Not Afrikaans, although some words are pretty similar. Afrikaans comes from Dutch, mainly, so I think it's probably Dutch. Yes?
