As you probably have noticed I have never really recommended one metal over another when discussing flutes. |
Being unprepared heightens nerves. |
By the time I got to the Paris Conservatoire I was very good at the scales and arpeggios. |
Control of vibrato helps your musical expression. |
Each time I come home form a tour I get several of my flutes out and play them. |
Everyone who plays the flute should learn singing. |
He was the outstanding musical genius of all time, when you think of how much he wrote and how long he lived. |
I always play the flute with the head-joint which comes on it. |
I am just another customer as far as they are concerned and when I order a flute I have to wait 9 months to a year until it is delivered. I do not ask for special treatment and I don't get it either. |
I believe if a flute is truly worth anything the maker should sell it and the player should buy it. |
I do agree that playing an etude with a metronome is a good idea. |
I do not consider my self as having mastered the flute, but I get a real kick out of trying. |
I have always bought modern flutes and enjoyed playing them. |
I have never received a flute from them for free and I would not accept such a gift from any manufacturer. |
I have to report to those of you who think diamonds make a difference that I cannot tell what it is. Seriously, as you all know, they make no difference at all. They just make the flute look a little more special. |
