Andante et Rondo for Two Flutes and Piano, Op. 25 [1874] by Franz Doppler
This is impressive !
Over too soon
I have a Gebruder Monnig, they are not made anymore. It is the best piccolo I’ve ever had and i used the wave Also. It’s great for resonance in the lower register i find.
I'm so glad you found the right fit for you!
C'est mon morceau de musique préféré depuis que je suis enfant. Bien qu'un peu plus rapide, c'est une belle interprétation. La beauté qui joue du la flûte m'enchante totalement. La concentration dans ses yeux lui permet de voir chaque note dans son esprit. Elle est sans prétention et extrêmement talentueuse. Elle est belle et toute cette interprétation est magnifique. Cela me captive totalement. Merci d'avoir publié cette vidéo.
Thank you so much! We loves Gary Schocker's music as well.
So beautifully made and finally a good tempo. I have sung the aria many times and most of the time it was chosen much too quickly by the conductor. It was like having a competition to see who can finish first. Continue to enjoy making music and all the best from Hamburg.
We love being able to play together and have such wonderful repertoire from Bach to make music all year long!
I would love to try that piece.
🎉 Yes, it's fantastic for this combo! She also recommends violin/flute or cello/horn as interchangeable parts.
I enjoyed this video Faith. That’s great, you found a beauty! My search was similar for a new flute. I chose a handmade silver Brannen, but with a Lafin headjoint with a 14k Rose Gold riser.
Brannen's are wonderful!
Yeah Faith!!, such a great story-telling performance with sublime pacing! Thanks for sharing the Mid-Atlantic performance with the world :-) 🙂
My pleasure!!
Can you please share the flute notes
The sheet music is available for purchase here: www.fluteworld.com/product/flute-collection-the-ludovico-einaudi/
Am playing 1927 closed hole Haynes which had been used professionally. Plays nicely. Was looking to step up and auditioned flutes at Flute Center of New York. Very disappointed in Haynes new Q Series. Actually, preferred Muramatsu and Pearl, both of which were comparable. But prices of upscale flutes are obscene. Still sitting on sidelines.
There are many players who prefer the vintage flutes! I still love my 1968 Haynes.
I play on a 14K Brannen flute that I had made for me back in 2006. Didn't like the original headjoint that came with my flute, ( you don't get to try out a custom made flute heads, but you can exchange it out for another head from the company, in the first year after purchase). Took me about 5 yrs trying different gold heads until I found the one for me. Played on it for about 10 yrs. Gold is wonderful but is much different than silver. Before my gold flute, I played silver Haynes in college. Gold blends well in orchestra, doesn't have the same carrying power as silver. Also since it is denser than silver, takes more air/endurance to play. About 4 yrs ago finally sold my 14k headjoint and found my dream headjoint ( for now..😅) an Original JR Lafin Platinum headjoint with 14k embouchure and riser. The combination of the Platinum head with the 14K body of the flute, is very nice. Platinum gives more carrying power when I want it, blends well with others, and the sound is incredible because it's got multiple metals. My backup flute is a silver Powell which is still wonderful, and when I want a lighter flute to play, it delivers. Silver I believe still has the ability to make some of the best lower registers, dynamic wise...🎵
Platinum is magic!
We always follow your beautiful presentations from here in Brazil whenever possible. Congratulations on the artistic and sound quality, considering the times we live in with a shortage of inspiring music. teacher Alysson Félix
I'm so glad we can worship around the world together!
Great performance, many thanks 🙂
Thank you it was so encouraging to hear you. I do mucha want to upgrade. Three ears ago I bought a used Emanuel head joint which is better than the original Sanyo artist model more than 30 years ago. i would have loved to hear you play something you love on that flute. But i loved the energy and joy you transmit as you talked.
Thanks for sharing your story. You can check out any of my performance videos on my UA-cam channel!
BRAVO!😍
Good music
Blessings. From family W
Where can you get one of those gadgets to be able to play low b ?
You can get a low b foot joint as an option on almost all intermediate and professional level flutes these days!
❤❤❤
Wouldn't it have been nice and appropriate to actually play this combination for your audience? We would have loved to hear what it sounds like.
I play this flute and headjoint combination in all of my performance videos here on UA-cam. Please take a listen to any video on my main channel to hear it!
Excellent story. Thank you for your honesty. I'm playing on an Altus 1107. I just tried a Faulisi, silver, with silver riser; a Mancke, silver with platinum riser; a Powell, silver with Solist cut; A Powell silver with Venti cut. They were all very nice. Mancke was loudest with platinum riser. Faulisi had a beautiful sound. But my Altus head joint with gold riser was still a lot better. My Altus head joint has an extremely beautiful sound, in all three registers, and is loud too. Often times the grass seems greener, but take a moment to really compare and listen, you just might be like me and realize you have the right head joint for you. There is a lot of hype for certain head-joints because we all want that 'Holy Grail' of flutes, but sometimes the one you think is it, in reality, is not. I had the money to purchase a head-joint, but I found out that my flute is just right for me. Let your flute choose you. Go into any trial with an open mind, dont get caught up on brands nor price. Let your ears and your heart tell you which is the right choice. And do not neglect getting a COA at least once per year. Good sealing pads and a new cork will make your flute sound incredible.
Thanks for sharing your story too! The options for flutes and headjoint combinations are becoming endless.
Sehr schön gespielt
Loved it all . Especially the trio and quartet.🙂
Yay! Thank you!
Absolutely beautiful! 👏
we have a great talent here......beautiful concert
Beautiful playing, and such a cool piece!
Thank you so much! We loved this piece and hope it gets played again and again.
Lovely!
Thank you very much! My husband and I always have a lot of fun playing together.
I currently play on a platinum clad Muramatsu and i also upgraded my headjoint to a 9k rose gold Mancke Headjoint. I tried the Muramatsu when I was shopping for my bass flute. I tried multiple brands until I came across this one and it is now my new baby
This is amazing! Have you been playing your whole life?
Thank you very much! I have been playing since I was young. I started in elementary school like many students.
Intouchables ❤️
Wow! Thank you ❤️
😊 Beautiful!!
Thank you!
It took me 1 year. I tried every flute under the sun and i ended up with an Altus 1807 with a mancke 14k lip headjoint. I thought i was the only one taking forever. Thank you for sharing your story
Love it! Merry Christmas!
The most beautiful music ,ever!
Thank you! We love Bach.
Mesmerising flute and piano voice ✨✨🔥.... Nice combo performance ✨
Thank you! I love being able to play duets with my husband.
@@faithwassonflutist can u play song Let her Go on flute ?
@@incrdebaleindia2221 Do you mean Let Her Go by Passenger? I do not usually make cover song videos. However, it may be possible in the future!
Man kann gern zum eigenen Vergnügen so wichtige Arien wie diese spielen, aber mit seinem Unverständnis für diese Musik nicht die Öffentlichkeit belästigen. Bitte derartige Aufführungen nur noch privat in aller Stille. Da sind sie gut aufgehoben, Danke.
I'm sorry you did not appreciate our interpretation of this work. But we stand behind our participation in presenting this Bach aria as part of virtual performance project during the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Faith, this is wonderful! I wish Patsie and I could have attended. Next time we hope. Tom
So glad you could enjoy the performance anyway!
This is so beautiful..and uplifting Thank you Faith
Thanks Elo!
It is so good to see women composing music. When I was taking composition in college, it was an "all guys" class. I asked my teacher why there were no females in the class and he replied, "It's a male thing!" I was furious! He also said that gay men could not compose music, I am glad that I kept my mouth shut or I would have been out of the class! This was a great performance!
Thank you so much! So important to play works by all who write them.
@@faithwassonflutist You are welcome!
what a sublime melody! lifts us above the routine things of this world. Congratulations one more time!
Thank you so much! It is a wonderful piece. We are always happy to share a bit of peace these days.
What's the company you used to kayak to Mendenhall Glacier?
