No ones probably going to see this but her performance was on the exact day I was born
@deven baggett
Same
same but i was born in 2005
Cool dude
omg it was a day after my exact birthday
I was born exactly 25 days after. :)
Her: im not even gonNA try to pronounce the composers name
Also her: proceeds to try to pronoumce composers name
@@iamtryingmybest8230 bahahaha-
i was looking for this comment as soon as she did that lmao
omg yea, that would be me
i’m studying with robin right now, 15 years later than you did. crazyyyyy
That's wild
You should show her this
bullshit.
Nothing we watch katies videos together @ lessons sometimes ☺️😂
Nathan Wall omg
You were better at 13 than I am at my instrument at 20 even though we started at the same age...😭😭
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE
Question did you start through a private teacher or public school band? I started through band and I'm really good for someone who started through band but taking a semester of private flute lessons in college took my played up a notch.
@@TheKatiebugsTTV public bc I have over controlling broke but rich asf parents
@@jelly6077 if you continue playing into college take lessons. It'll take your playing from a moderate level to a top level. And a teacher will work with you on technique and proper air support, posture, embouchure placement, etc. A public school band setting isn't going to do that for you. I didn't know until college that my right thumb was position was wrong and that it was slowing my playing down. I've learned so much more from a private lesson teacher than I ever did from my band director in hs. If music is something you want to go to school for private lessons is a must investment. That and a good quality flute. My starter flute was a Yamaha and it was good but it wasn't good enough for the level I'm wanting to play at. So when I could I invested in a Gemeinhardt flute, gold lip plate, silver, open hole, and a b foot joint. Best investment and I'm so comfortable with the brand. I love my flute now.
OMG ME.. I MEAN NOT QUITE. But I'm in a Music Degree this hurts mah feels 😂
Hey, I still can’t get a high B flat out 50% of the time and I’ve been playing for 7 years 😂 you did really good back then!
Just make sure it’s not your flute that’s the issue! Any slight problem can greatly affect such high notes coming out. Otherwise, whatever you may doing wrong probably can be easily fixed, in order for you to get out a high b flat
I could never get the B out of my flute... but neither my teacher so I guess it was always a flute issue..
@@avar7314 I've only been playing flute for a couple of years and it's the same with me, perhaps they're talking about a higher B flat.
I have been playing for a year only and I can get the highest C out
사나 that’s what I mean, like the highest Bb
her teachers face in the background "SHES NOT TOUNGING SHE NEEDS TO TOUNG .THE TIP OF THE TOUNG"
i’m in 10th grade been playing since 6th and good lord i mean i guess this is possible but jesus you had so much confidence and endurance i could never
Todomo the thing about me is I get extreme anxiety attack when I’m playing by myself idk any ways to cooperate that :(
ɐupɹǝʍ ʞᴉɯ yeah with the other two flutes in my band i play out and all but as soon as either one of them stops playing for some reason or one is out of school it’s just so painful.
Todomo Dang I play clarinet
Im right now at 3 years of experience in my clarinet and I love solo work :p.
ive been playing violin since 7th and im in tenth, i almost gave myself a heart attack having to play a part, not even a whole song, but a part to a class of like 11 kids lmfao
the fact that she’s blowing air through a tube with holes and it sounds angelic, I’ve been playing clarinet for three years and struggle sometimes with high notes.
I have played clarinet for 3 years know to! I don't really struggling with the high notes except for ones like high d flat😂
The trick is to blow alot of fast air and cover all the wholes
This. 100%. Work on my fast focused air. 😄
I've played for 2, this is my 3rd year and I feel that struggle. Looks at "A Christmas Festival " by Leroy Anderson. The 1st clarinet part is.... my death.
_ _MaeTheGay_ _ 1st year and high notes are easy (I just started 2 months ago ) and I'm in 5the grade *dabs*
callie Bergeron are you talking about just going about the break (clarion) or going full on altissimo register
As a music teacher myself, I can confirm that none of my 13 year old students sound this good. It’s easy to forget how big of an impact teachers have the potential to make on students. Videos like this remind me to step up to the plate and do all I can for my students.
Imagine one of the students sees this…
@@CreativeName2 Yeah, they might even practice for a change. 🙃
@@kenanjabr1992damn! now i know teachers talk about us for sure. already knew they did 💀 just officially convinced myself!
@@skitterskk Haha I still love them, but yes: we all shit talk students sometimes 😂
@@kenanjabr1992 whyyy😭😭
Okay but can we talk about her glo up?
Abby I WAS JUST THINKING THAT WHEN I READ THIS LMAO
Annika Jawanda haha
From being ang geek and became a pretty lady
Is not a glow up, she was a KID and now she is a GROWN women
People: Wow, that's her first performance! Cool!
Me: Wait, what?! 15 years have passed since 2004? 15 damn years?!
yes duh!?!
@@calvinhines8846 15 is not old lmao
Why is she better than all of my highschool flutes wtf
She had private lessons with a flute instructor (I think), in a band the focus is more on the band as a whole and not on each individual player.
A. The flute is hard (your talking to a flute) because of the amount of keys on the instrument compared to brass at least AND using the most air (that is a fact any if you want to argue then fight me)
B.Shes Katie flute and she's magic
just a egg with internet who also likes cats the keys don’t really matter, but amount of air sure
@@brandonm7952 well compared to other woodwinds it doesn't but compared to brass...
No offense, don't mean to be rude, I just can't say it nicer.
@@katelynnfrevel3255 the amount of keys make it "easier" to play. Instead of having to use your mouth or tongue for pitches you just move your fingers. This isnt to say the flute isnt harder/easier than other instruments
I love your "1+2+" counting written down in the lyrical part. It's so comfortable to see that everybody has the same problems at the first years of learning an instrument :)
props on developing good vibrato that early on, i had absolutely no control until i was 15 (last year oof)
Can you please make a beginner series? I’m about to start playing the flute and would like to learn the basic fingerings and the like by someone like you instead of a book.
When I first started out, my teacher and I was working on the head joint for a while. She was teaching me about my embouchure and stuff, so I recommend that?
Idk what I’m saying lmao
I been practicing with the book and it actually helps if you practice like a hour or 2, also practice your scale
Hi! Flute here. I know it's not a video, but here's some tips.
•Work on your embouchure (can't spell it well, sorry) as one of your first steps. Even if you can easily remember the fingerings, you won't be able to get a proper sound out if you don't position your mouth right.
•Start learning notes that are on the scale first. I learned B flat, A, and G first. Then, I would recommend doing slightly higher and lower notes, and gradually expanding your range. You will have to change the shape of your mouth slightly depending on the note.
•Dont give up, even if it's hard. I couldn't get a proper sound out if a flute for a while after I started. It took me a bit to be able to low and really high notes, too.
•Work on your air flow and breathing. You will most likely get light headed. That's normal. Adjust how much air you use based on the note. Find what works.
•Learn basic pieces and songs first. Don't immediately go for Beethoven and Mozart and such. Work on the basics first, eventually, you'll be able to play harder songs.
•Scales. Learn them. They are great for warming up, getting ready, etc.
•Always warm up before you tune. Play for a bit until your flute is warm, then tune, either based off of other flutes, an app, or one of the ones they often have in band rooms. If you tune before you warm up, your flute can become slightly off (it either becomes flat or sharp. I can't remember).
Good luck if you do start flute!
When I got my flute my teacher would make us practice on the head joint by covering the end and blowing into it until you got a steady sound

Hmmm... i started playing flute when I was 12~13. Im in university now and am not able to play music much anymore. Every time i pick up my flute im filled with frustration at how bad I’ve gotten. I remember in high school I was so self conscious about all my playing because I had friends who were all really good musicians, and I started so late and was never able to afford lessons. Not a day goes by that I don’t miss it. Every time I watch your videos I get inspired to go put my flute together and fumble around for a bit. This video was particularly interesting because it is clear the difference years of practice can make. Progress feels so slow for me when playing flute (or tenor sax, as I picked that up my sophomore year of high school and, due to instrumentation issues, have more opportunities to play that than flute), but this shows me that even just honking whenever I can is progress, because im not giving up! If that makes any sense lmao. What a cute video! Thanks for sharing!
Shelby Hiromi best of luck returning to music!!
I just returned to music this past month. I started in 8th grade and was just tossed into a band class. Never received lessons, never owned my own flute. In high school band, I was self conscious too but the band program was so underfunded and undersupported we usually had an avg of 2/3 flute players and there was one year where I was literally the only flute player (we resorted to being a jazz ensemble haha.) After high school I didn't have a flute anymore and would occasionally play on a shitty one my friend had. I missed it so much but didn't have the money to cough up to rent one. This year, at 21 (4th year in college) I mustered up the motivation and decided to rent a flute and play again (it helps that at my uni there are free flute lessons for nonmajors) and although I get frustrated at my sound quality I have been so happy and am improving so much by having someone guiding me, giving me helpful tips, and playing with me. We all don't have the privilege of having a teacher. (I know there's RUclips but it's nice to have someone physically there)
yasmine rodriguez I’m actually starting the clarinet this year ( I’m in 8th grade so I’m starting super late) and I’m going to do high school band which is going to super advanced for me so wish me luck haha
We can’t all be professionals. Play your flute even if you are not great. Music is for all. Play for yourself and enjoy.
I started when I was about 12-13 but got serious when I joined a youth orchestra and was playing at a decent grade level. Then I stopped playing in college but now I'm getting back to it and my technique is starting to come back after intensive practice. I'm also contemplating lessons and a new flute. So it's never too late to go back !! :) Good luck in whatever you choose to do.
Her: now I’m not even going to try and pronounce the name
Her, 2 seconds later: schabothr dblemnksj
C.A.Z Equestrian omg😂😂😂
No one:
Literally no one:
Me: her flute angleeee
Paola Jaime I didn’t want to point it out!!! It was bothering me so much
Paola Jaime I’ve been playing for 3 years and I still have a terrible flute angle 😂
my angle is pretty good when i’m sitting but if i stand up i’m as good as dead
well tbh it’s better for tone if the flute is angled downwards a bit. but yeah, to marching band standards, this is a terrible flute angle lol
Paola Jaime i was hoping someone besides me would notice
Lol, I love the "this is why I love classical music" moment. So relatable
This is such a perfectly timed video. I have my my first solo performance next in 2 months!
Austin Kennedy good luck! :)
Austin Kennedy ahhh good luck and have fun!! :)
Austin Kennedy good luck man you got this 👍🏼
Good Luck
i hope you do great!!!
I'm 28 yrs old and just started to play last year. Often I hear my recordings and say "well I wasn't that bad, I just needed more experience". Watching your younger self got me emotional, it's so beautiful to realize your progress over the years from such a young age. And of course your flute playing is like heaven to me!!!
I can't even play this and I've been playing for 7 years now :(
Kalina B PRACTICE!!!
I N T E R E S T I N G
@@datnguyen3441 Just practice! I have played for four years and am currently in 8th grade. My teacher is trying to see if I can audition for state honor band!
@@blehblblehbl7535 I hope you made it!!! Or make it, I almost teared up the first time I found out I was in states
@@lydia7177 Ahh thank you but he forgot to ask so I don't think it will happen. But I made it into the district honor band and was first chair flute. My concert was two days ago and it was really exciting. Almost got me tearing up when I found out I got first chair
im in the 8th grade, I started band in 5th grade. and I can NEVER sound like that after only 3 years😫
but I love ur flute playing❤️😍
letirz she probably had private lessons
It also clicks faster for some people.
Totally liked it. Thanks for playing it after the recording. That was a bonus. I'm getting emotional too.
Crazy how this performance was the day before I was born
That vibrato and tone is impressive for only three years
Her: *can play Hungarian Serenade insanely well in 7th Grade*
Me: *using this solo for my college auditions and is having the hardest time with it and begins to feel inferior and thinks that maybe this actually is an easy piece so even if I play it well for my auditions I still won't get in because 7th graders can play it and I, a 12th grader, can barely play it*
How did you get on with it?
How did it go?
Soooo..... how’d it gooo?
It’s been another 11 months before the last reply so. How did your audition go?
3 years later… How did it go?
It’s so wonderful you still have the recording of your first performance! My first performances were not even recorded, would be nice to watch them now though. And you’re playing amazing considered it was your first performance!!
Katie: she looks annoyed
Me: maybe it’s because your flute isn’t pArAlLeL to the gRoUnD *thinks about my band teacher saying it to the flutes section every class even though almost 95% of the time it is parallel to the ground*
Yna Manzano omg thank you
The thing about flute angle is that it's highly dependent on the flautist. They want you to keep it parallel to the ground in marching band because the flute is a very visual instrument, and everyone needs to look the same. But, in concert band, the best for your tone quality and sound isn't going to be parallel to the ground like in marching band. Have you seen Dennis Bouriakov's flute angle? Most band directors should understand that : )
@@Ms2gymnasticsgirls It can be hard on the neck though (Not saying you`re wrong, just adding my opinion into the mix)
Keeping the flute parallel to the ground can be so taxing on your back. I think her flute was tilted a bit too much but tilting helps a lot with shoulder and elbows.
Lea true. I’m in a marching band and oh my god my back is done with life. I had a neck spasm once and it hurt so bad but I couldn’t bring my flute down because tHe DrUm MaJoRs HaNdS aRe StiLl Up
I would listen to me 15y ago on the violin but its kinda impossible xD
What a cute video. It's amazing you could play that only 3 years on the flute!!!
I liked this kind of video.
Love it! I really wished I had gone to music school... But I picked up anyway 5 years ago and I'm not as good as you were at 13yrs old! I have recordings of myself back then, so I listen to them sometimes to get perspective on my learning.
I’m 13 and I’m currently playing the jouers de flute by roussell. If you’ve never played them then you should try them because they are absolutely beautiful especially the one called Pan.
So many memories! I was obsessed with that piece too.
I’m 43 and have been playing the flute for a little over 1 month and I just want to play beautiful pieces like this for my own enjoyment.
I started in August of 2004 ( Exactly 15 years ago today), I didn’t start playing major solo rep until September of 2008 ( that piece was Danae de la Chèvre by Arthur Honegger but I didn’t perform it in public until January of 2009). I’m excited to announce that I will be doing my masters recital this coming Spring and one of the pieces that I’m playing for this recital is the Martinu Sonata ( which I’m going to dedicate it to my dad who passed away a little over three months ago because he was the one who introduced me to the flute) You played so much better than I did when I was 13😊❤️🎶
This was so cool to watch!! Also a surprise to hear having only heard this played by professionals 😂
The second movement is absolutely gorgeous, beautiful playing.
Even as a violinist I can actually relate to how you used to have a fear of those sudden jumps to super high notes.
Your intonation was really good even as a younger student 👍🏼👍🏼
Nawww, I was 5 back then, didn't even think about starting on the violin, but thanks to a special Mozart recording and my teacher, I did one year later. So nice to see that you didn't get bored or frustrated by the flute and stayed with that instrument!
That was very cute and great to see the difference the time makes. Fan of this type of video
yess we need more of this content!!
That was absoflutely amazing
You sound so amazing 💕💕
You were fabulous!!!! That is a really challenging piece!!!
You were still very good back then!! I love the sound of your flute!
The sound of flute is so satisfying in the ear😍🎶🎵
I am a brass player yet I still have extreme respect for her and how much skill she has as a flute player my god.
Brass is still really hard!
I just started this piece today and it’s literally my new favorite piece to play as well as Scherzino which my teacher is also working on with me.
Ah I can feel the nostalgia I get the same when watching old performances back. Miss those classical student days and all my old teachers :) You did a great job on that piece! Good tone for your age! I swear you can often "hear" when someone is going to become a professional musician :)
Yes!!! More!!!
NYSSMA??? OMG It was my last time doing junior all county this year and I got first seat!!! Dang there were these 2 solo parts. I was shakingggg. But it was so fun and memorable
I’ve been playing the flute for about 4 months now- you are such an inspiration to me! :)
Loved it Katie. Memories are so fun. My book looks as bad as yours. Taped together and so many markings. I pull it out every once In a while and play through it.
i would have met katie in high school with me on piano and just had the biggest crush! sight reading along with the music is fun, you always make a sound when you mess up, thanks for sharing! damn, i gotta get a new keyboard and start playing again!
I think you played excellently. Your teacher was intentionally listening to every note you played. Hungarian music is difficult. Bravo for you and your teacher!🙏🎶☺
Amazing God given talent!!!!❤️❤️
Loved this!! You sounded beautiful.
I loved it!!
That was beautiful Katie. I would love to hear any more then and now videos. Helps us beginners to appreciate our progress. Which flute were you playing 15 years ago in that video? Thankyou for your time effort and for sharing this xxx
What a cute piece :) I like it.
My first piece was Hungarian serenade too! I played it my 8th grade year. This brings back many memories haha
I ❤ your playing!! I dont think I'll ever get this good!!😂❤
I loved this style of video.
awe this is so bittersweet 🥺i would have been two months old when you did this performance which is what shocks me the most! you’ve been playing flute for longer than i’ve been alive hahaha
I wish now I hadn't wasted so many years playing sax and clarinet as a hobby on and off with long breaks in between. You have achieved so much through your dedication to your music.
Aaaaand now that piece is going to be in my head all day! 😂 Wonderful vid!
Love this vid!
I had that same book in the 80s. I lost my book along with all my teacher's markings about 3 years ago and miss it terribly. It became my warm ups when in public since i wanted pieces that i wouldn't mess up on.
I just got assigned this piece by my flute teacher and I love it so much
Your intro music was my audition piece for my districts honors band...that just gave me such a flood of emotions 😂
i'd love to see you repeat it now!!! watched it all the way through...you did!! lol....great job!!!!
yes more! Show us ur high school videos. Im in high school right now and I can only play songs like Jesu of Man's desiring. (yikes, but ive been playing for 6 months soo)
That was wonderful. My "big" piece was the 1st movement of the Boccherini in D. I'd been playing flute about 3 years like you in this video. It was my audition piece for an arts High School. Yes, I got in :)
By the way, you play it even better now :)
Still amazing as usual 🥰💗
i remember playing this piece in middle school and it was so fun!
i love that lyrical section 🥰🥰🥰
Wonderfully played
I’m 14 years old so if you have any other performances around this time it would be super motivational!
Oh my goodness.... this is literally my solo for this year. Randomly screaming on the home page and Hungarian Serenade popped up 😂
Ha I played that song so much when I was younger!!
I’m freaking out I used the same book! I’m performing the Sicilienne as my final year concerto next week.
Not to make you feel old, but this video was from before I was born, I am 13 😂!
Amelie Cicirello Omgggg
So you must be 15 years old 😳
am I wrong ? 😥
Mathematics 🤯
Art _with_badreya huh?
Art _with_badreya you are stupid child
She’s saying she’s 13 and this was before she was born so most likely she was born in 2006 or 2005
Art _with_badreya what....😂
Hi I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me to pick this song for my solo contest. I am in 7th grade and I got first place in my section with this song so thank you for inspiring me to pick this song
Omg that makes me so happy!!! Congratulations!!! :)
beautiful playing and i LOVE your top
Thank you so much !! 🙏🏻
That was a great performance!!
Low-key I didn't know thta I had potential for flute until this year which I am aged 13 then I tried then it sounded nice it's been a few month and I improve alot but that song that u played was hard for me lol
Duncan Tung same but with this the bassoon turns out I’m really good at it
Were you like a prodigy? My 11 year old just got her flute and I can't imagine her playing like this in 3 years. I hope she has a passion for it. I want her succeed at everything lol
hang on, your 28! your so young wow i thought you were like in your early 20's wow im so astonished
so you mean I am so old?? 😂 😂 😂
@@katieflute maybe in early 30's was the guess not 20's 😂 that would cover up 😂
That is brilliant playing for someone after only 3 years!
Wow, I have literally just started the flute and that was amazing!
Ahh the B flat! I’ve been playing flute for almost 4 years now (I started in fifth grade and I am now in 9th grade!), and I literally just learned how to play a high G 😆 (but I’ve only ever done concert band and now marching band)
Love u Katie and u played great 😘❤️💙👌
Valerie Davila 💖☺️
can you sight read most music?
katie: yes.
I started a few months ago with flute and it's fun to play and I enjoy it even though I suffer with learning queen and unchain melody but I get through it and enjoy playing flute.
I’m a clarinet player but this is the first vid I’ve seen from you and I’m already a fan :D
OMG can't believe u sight read that lol and it was so long. U r a great flute player I play trumpet but saw u and I thought I would tune in. U R AMAZING 😍
Excellent performance.
