    If you want to get better at performing in front of people, then you have to practice in front of people. Makes sense right? Try practicing in a public studio on Tonic: tonicmusic.app/practice-together 🎵

      Sure, and how can I use tonic right to get ‚fron-of-people‘ then, I am not a digital native and need support, I am afraid! Hope makes sense.

  • @riripebby
    @riripebby 7 месяцев назад +2

    Really interesting to see repertoire exchange discussion, and altering of the octaves.
    Jean Pierre Rampal approached Khachaturian to write a flute concerto, he responded "lol just arrange my violin concerto" and encouraged Rampal. He did the arrangement and played it on the lower register. My teacher later arranged it one octave higher because the flute's lower registers are so hard to project in front of an orchestra (I assume, I never asked..).
    P.S: She isn't doing it without spitting everywhere, she's quite literally spitting into the flute at times! Controlled spitting is how you play this wonderful tube :)

    I think that Jasmine is using her flute with the diamond in the end to play today. I am always partial to the violin and especiallywhen Ray is playing, but I love listening to any music with any instrument. This takes me back to high school band when we would have dueling instruments especially when we had days that everyone competing for best in their show for competing state finals and scholarships.

  • @Hvgmusings

    You should do this type of video with Chris Thile - virtuoso mandolinist. In the “classical” sector he plays Baroque (Bach) and has translated the works for mandolin! (Tuned the same but obviously played much much differently) that would be SO cool. He’s not a RUclipsr but he does love to collaborate with any and every artist and I mean that. Quirky & virtuosic! Would be a fun video.

    Flute has a totally different attack than violin and does sound heavenly most of the time. But I prefer violin's versatility - it can sound heavenly too, if one knows how - and intends - to make it sound like that. 😄 As always, videos with you two are a pleasure to watch. 💞
