I am a clarinet player/teacher and I just recently started watching your videos. Love the content and it’s helping me reorganize how I structure lessons and practicing. I’m feeling motivated again after feeing like I wasn’t doing enough for my students or my own playing. Keep doing great things!
March is the start of crazy rehearsal time for me, so on my stand are my folders for the orchestra, band, and flute choir I play in, plus the score for a pit gig (Cinderella, never played that show before!). I would love to see a video on “required reading for fun and education”!
Another great vlog! Thank you so much, I really enjoyed watching. Regarding your question: Yes, I would love to see a video about your music related books.
I was obsessed with James Galway, when I was a teenager. I've been listening to him a lot again, in recent months. Also, Adam Walker and Emmanuel Pahud, are worth listening to. ❤🌈👍❤️🎶🎶🌈
Another great vlog! Currently on my music stand I have orchestra music because the orchestra I’m in is performing at Carnegie Hall on April 28. I’m super excited
❤the video Katie! I have the same Rampal book autographed by none other than JPR himself. It was gifted to me by friends when I finished my masters degree. Please come back to Chicago sometime!😉
Love the Korngold violin concerto! Was it the Ysaye Ballad 3 for the encore? Another favorite! Cool idea to to do an overhead shot in your studio, and the sound was good, too. As for snow, though i spent 15 years of my life in Delaware where it snowed, most of my life has been spent in central Florida, so no snow! No Valentine's Day for me, but I have sung in house concerts a few times, and I always enjoyed it! One particularly memorable time I sang the Rossini aria "Bel raggio lusinghier" the fastest EVER.....EVER....we were flying! I do have the Galway flute book (also bought used), and I got to attend a masterclass he gave at my university (though I was a clarinet/voice major) and even got to ask him a question (about his amazing singing flute tone, and whether he sang and recommended singing to flutists.....he loved the question and gave an enthusiastic 'yes'!). Not as big a fan of Rampal's as of Galway, but I do like Rampal's jazz flute suites by Claude Bolling, and he inspired me to get the music and try to actually play them! Also, I liked that last camera angle with the afternoon sun coming in and lighting up your face......really artistic!
If you are looking for an interesting read, try “The Feather Thief.” It’s a completely unbelievable but true story, and there’s a flutist at the center of it. ❤
Hi Katie! I can recommend the Book The Musical Brain by Lois Svard. Super nerdy and really interesting, it's about neuroscience in the musical field, with various studies that give us musicians helpful practice tips. I am still in High School (from France), and next week I am heading to Warsaw, Poland for a competition! :) I love watching your videos, they are both helpful and entertaining!
You should read The Mystwick School of Musicraft br Jessica Khoury. It's absolutely beautifully written, and even though it's technically for kids, it's whimsical and relatable even for adults and if I'm remembering correctly she plays the flute😊 And I think you should look into a Happy Hoodie for Miguel.
hi katie! love your videos as they have been a great addition to my week :) i had a quick question- have you ever had to deal with tendonitis from playing? if so, do you have any advice on getting over it? i'm a flutist in college, and i have found that it has been getting pretty intense as we're approaching concert season- not to mention my junior recital coming up. thank you so much!
As far as music-related books go, highly, highly recommend Danger Music by Eddie Ayres if you haven’t read it already! I also recently really enjoyed reading Renee Flemming’s autobiography The Inner Voice
Greetings from Puerto Rico. My name is Samuel Valentín, I play flute, sax, clarinet but in a municipal band in Puerto Rico I play string bass and in a Latin jazz big band I play alto sax, I am simply a music fan. I'm curious to know if you have played jazz with the flute and if you have recorded any jazz with the flute and if you haven't, I would like to hear you doing some jazz piece at some point... I ALWAYS watch your videos.
Saludos desde PUERTO RICO. Mi nombre Samuel Valentín , toco flute , sax, clarinet pero en una banda municipal de puerto rico toco bajo de cuerdas y en un bigband de latín jazz toco sax alto , simplemente soy un aficionado de la música . Tengo curiosidad por saber si as tocado jazz con la flauta y si as grabado algo de jazz con la flauta y si no lo as hecho , me gustaría escucharte haciendo alguna pieza jazz en algún momento.. SIEMPRE veo tus videos .
Hi Katie, I am a beginner flutist, and I was wondering if you’d be interested in filming a video, or multiple videos, playing all the scales? I’m really struggling with this and need help, and I think a visual would really help me out!
Pup is singing 😘😘
Yes please do a longer video of book reccomendations !!

My music stand has material for my next open mic: Sound of Silence, Fields of Gold, and Never Gonna Give You Up. Practicing on alto recorder.
I can’t tell you how much I love these videos 🤩✨

I really like the nice cinematic sequences
I’ve just started playing the flute. Having a bit of trouble playing the octaves. And it’s your cute how your dog sings the song is it’s people.
Miguelito.. the best😂!!! Love your vids, keep them coming!👍👏
De La Sonorite is always on my stand!
I just came across my copy of the James Galway book yesterday!! Great book!
I love that you are so enthusiastic and passionate about music and flute 🥰 I live in Vienna and luckily classical music is very present here 🎡🎵
I was obsessed with James Galway, when I was a teenager. I've been listening to him a lot again, in recent months.
Also, Adam Walker and Emmanuel Pahud, are worth listening to.
❤🌈👍❤️🎶🎶🌈
Miguel is so adorable ❤
I loved this one! I had the Rampal and James Galway books you found at the Strand.
currently playing bach’s second violin concerto in e major and beethoven spring sonata! love those :)
You should read, “this is your brain on music.” By Daniel Levitin. It explores the relationship between music and the human brain.
Another great vlog! Currently on my music stand I have orchestra music because the orchestra I’m in is performing at Carnegie Hall on April 28. I’m super excited
I love miguel, he's so funny 😍

Dude my band JUST WENT to perform at Carnegie hall
please do book reccomendations for musicians!

I’m learning Louise Farrenc’s violin sonata No.2! So that’s the very first thing you’ll see on my music stand 🧡
You should read The Mystwick School of Musicraft br Jessica Khoury. It's absolutely beautifully written, and even though it's technically for kids, it's whimsical and relatable even for adults and if I'm remembering correctly she plays the flute😊 And I think you should look into a Happy Hoodie for Miguel.
ooh, never thought about using a Happy Hoodie outside the of being dried during grooming. wonder if it also works for fireworks events
i like to sit middle middle almost always unless i know the program well then i want to sit closer and watch the musicians
Katie, any more thoughts on buying that silver Powell flute? ❤
