It should be like a cadenza - in and out of time. Much too fast the notes aren’t necessarily representative of the speed of note just the relation to the notes that surround it if that makes sense
Not me thinking wtf the percussion and conductor doing? Yes, at 2:53 they did not let you finish. I sat here yelling at them to chill and wait for you to finish… We played this when I was a senior in high school, and my mind went to what my band director would do if the percussion didn’t let the flute solos finish… whiteboard eraser at the wall behind the percussion… 😂🙈
Thank you so much! I'm trying to catch up with everyone else. I'm in NYC all-city high school concert band and everyone there is way better than me (but I do think I ate with the outfit that day 😋)
this piece is hard asf but man 4 months in is your conducter even teaching u edit: my fucking bad holy shit nvm this is actually not bad at all if youve only been playing flute itself for 4 months
Wdym? This is extremely impressive for 4 months. Most people can’t play the concert Bb scale 5 months in, and he’s playing like multiple octaves and 32+ notes
@@HeindsAG no, he has been practicing this single song for 4 months i believe. he has been playing flute for way longer, i dont think its even possible to be able to play arabesque in 4 months of flute playing. if so he is EXTREMELY talented
not trying to throw shade, but if you have only been playing for a few months, why did your director make you play flute 1? do they not have more experienced flautists or is he just letting you play for fun?
Please tell me you didn't waste money on that flute. No offense, but... You wasted money on a piece of crap. DO NOT BUY COLORED INSTRUMENTS UNLESS THEY SRE A CUSTOM ORDER!
The funny thing is that I got this flute for fun. I used to play the flute parts on recorder in a music club at my school and I was encouraged to actually play the flute. Now I enjoy playing flute more than trumpet and plan to get an actual intermediate flute.
not out of tune, only off beat *here*. i think it may sound out of tune because it's in semitone intervals (very dissonant) as it's in the byzantine/double harmonic scale. they are out of tune closer to 4:05, but this can be likened to hitting bad partials (maybe). i am a flutist, and have perfect pitch, so that's my credibility. this song is very difficult to play especially during the solo which contains bends, and is very impressive for someone with only four months of experience.
@@P72962Not really that flute solo is too the DISCRETION of the flute player. Meaning, that the tempo is free for the flute soloist to pick. It’s free flowing and the conductor should make that clear. Everybody should fit around the flutist.

You know youre cooked when the flute is TEAL lmao i get it my doubles arent as good either.
Not your conductor telling you you were fast when you weren’t💀
it was really fast lol
it was pretty fast
Maybe he meant he was fucking it up too much if he wanted to go at that speed

The band is supposed to follow the soloist in that part
absolutely INCREDIBLE for a sightread!!
oh my god the teal flute
0:20 I hate when directors are like ready!!, never mind I'm just going to talk and as soon as you put that flute down I will start.
Thats amazing, that much progress in only in a few months too! keep up the good work!
8:24 and 9:44 is just DOWNRIGHT ANGELIC AND NO ONE CAN CHANGE MY MIND

dang only playing flute for 4 months. that's some nice progress.
Sight reading arabesque is literally swimming in lava with snow shoes and a giant sweater
i just joined band as the only oboe and ive only played brass so i sound like a rabid duck on adderall
I’m the second trombone and there is only 2 trombones 😭 yes I cannot play woodwinds😭

This on a real flute is like actually so good
Can ur conductor CONDUCT?
Good job! I really like your excitement!

You ate that up 😭 as a french horn i have respect for anyone that can sightread

OMG WAIT YOUVE ONLY BEEN PLAYING FOR A FEW MONTHS AND UR PLAYING THE HARDEST SONG FOR HIGHSCHOOLS??? THATS CRAZY!!!
Not the hardest song for highschoolers.
It’s definitely not the hardest song I’ve played this in middle school
dude ive been playing for years and im not even close to as good as him 😭😭😭
maybe its not, but playing this in middle school is absolutely insane
@@jamiejosias951 Not in Texas 👍
insane for 4 months. INSANE
1:21, bro really hit those notes 🔥😂
I think your doing great, Keep up the practice cause id love to play in a band like that, never have but hopefully one day.😄

Your bands sight reading is pretty good compared to a lot of high schools
I was not expecting the teal flute 😭
정말 대단하네요!
one of the flutes were really sharp on that Eb
I swear, I played a clarinet solo that sounded kinda similar at the beginning..
Boy flutist here
