Of course there are going to be times an entire orchestra is louder than a single flute. Her dynamics are just right, she crushes this piece.....after all there she is performing as a soloist with an orchestra while most of the you tube critics here are what...sitting behind the computer.....her finger positions are just exceptional. I love how she accomplishes these very difficult passages with minimal movement, she does not give into the “showy” fingering a lot of flautists employ. She gets the job done in the most efficient manner possible. I think she has a great career ahead of her. A great performance, and as a flutist I really enjoyed it.
@@allons-y933 Yes but that's mostly not the 'fault' of the soloist. It's just as much a fault of the orchestra (look at the size of it and the number of string players!!) - and the composer! Chaminade has written low notes, which cannot carry as well as high ones. (It's fine in the piano version) Also most of the bits where you can't hear her over the orchestra are where the part is just doubling the violins or the other orchestral instruments, so it doesn't really matter.
A wonderful performance. Her notes flowed like liquid gold. One can forget how much hard work and dedication, lie behind this level of skill. The long hours of practice ...
I agree. To me, it brings forth almost all of the flute's capabilities and also pitfalls. It represents very well the best potential of the instrument. It's a showpiece!
This is an example of excellent ensemble playing. Ms Miller's ability to shape phrases and blend with the orchestra when the music requires it) is refreshing, something that many soloists cannot bring themselves to do. Her intonation is impeccable, and she has more than enough presence to project her sound all the way to the back of the hall without being bombastic. Brava!
omg her tone is amazing! Vibrato on point as well! I wish I had her technical ability and tone when I was "youth". 100/10 amazing performance! she makes it seem so effortlessly and to hit those high notes as smooth and angelic as she did is flat out amazing! I hope she continued in the music world!
This must be the youth orchestra, they all look like kids. And they play excellently well. Kudos to the flute player. Such a difficult piece and marvellously played. Masterfully directed by the master Ben Zander. Superb!
Such a joy to see this kind of jubilation among those who love the flute and orchestra. Watching this makes me hopeful about the future. This kind of piece is highly nuanced, concentrated, and exhausting to play. (There's almost nowhere for the flute to hide!) Major Kudos to the soloist.
Then theres me... a metalhead guitarist. I'm going into music as my major... as (drumroll please) a classical flutist. I've been playing for nine years and any time I start to think about it I cant help but laugh. I dress and look like metal.. and people ask what I play and I'm just there like 😐 classical flute. Beautiful piece. Just wanted to share that to those in the comments while yall enjoy her beautiful playing. Just wow.
@@rebeccatriggs4182 after you've practiced it for the 100+ time youd be surprised how much is just muscle memory. Still shes a professional and it is still amazing to witness.
If you listen close enough, you can hear at 0:24 you can hear that when the conductor says "crashed the wedding" there is a literal crash in the background.
Did y’all really expect her to not get “drowned out” by AN ENTIRE FRICKING ORCHESTRA BEHIND ONE FLAUTIST? It’s a whole orchestra and one flute. I believe that was intended by the composer.
Composer weighing in here - I cannot speak for this piece, but composers are incredibly aware of when a soloist will be drowned out (by either a piano or an orchestra). There are several reasons a composer may want to do this: 1. to make the emotion or inertia of the piece overflow in exuberance that it takes over in a big swell 2. to allow the soloist to be the background/supporting part so that the orchestra or pianist can have a moment in the spotlight. Either the soloist can stop playing (rests) or they can play an accompaniment part. I really dislike it (most often heard in studio recordings) when the soloist is always the loud part, and the piano or orchestra are really quiet all the time - I'm thinking of examples where the piano accompanist is bashing something fortissimo out, but the recording engineer has pulled the fader down to make the soloist always sit on top - it completely ruins the whole point of that section of the piece for the composer. Obviously this is a live recording, not a studio recording, but I thought I'd mention this as an example so you can see how frustrating it would be for a composer to have their concepts completely overruled by the desire to have the soloist forever the hero 100% of the time.
I’ve never idolized someone like her I’ve been playing flute for a while now and I’ve always been first chair but some day I wanna be just like this amazing woman right here
Just wonderful. Fabulous. This music is so evocative of the early Twentieth C. It must have been one of the most exciting times to live, ever. What a lovely musician this lady is!
I’m learning flute and I honestly love flute sm I have so much fun when it’s just me connecting with my flute and the music the time flies fast when I play flute so here I am watching performance of flute 🥹
Absolutely gorgeous performance. Thank you for being an inspiration to me while I've been getting ready for my performance of it with orchestra. Beautiful playing!!
Bravissimo Madam! A masterful, perfect interpretation.... I had discovered this work during a concert of the Harmony of Valenciennes (France) in ... 1989. I had never listened to this piece again since.
I was very impressed with the neat expression and willpower. And the smile after the performance was a proof that the musician had something essential. Thank you! (#^.^#)
What's all this nonsense in the comments about her sound not being large enough and getting swamped by orchestra? I can't hear any evidence of this, and her technical prowess and tone seem to me exemplary.
Precioso! Impecable y excelente solfeo... Esta obra me parece como un suspiro al inicio y la intensidad a la que llega sin caer en el virtuosismo obsoleto hizo una interpretación formidable.
Such beautiful performance by everyone 💯 the orchestra and the soloist really breathed life into this piece 😉 I liked the introductory speech, made me listen to this song with a different perspective

haha jokes on you im tryna learn the piece too
@@ihavegcc472 she's not a supergood flutist thought she is good, but not the best:( :(

Preacchhhhh!!!! I’m learning this piece and it’s incredibly hard in some places so mad props to her🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I think its also just the way it's mic'd to be honest. I think live it didn't sound like that
A wonderful performance. Her notes flowed like liquid gold. One can forget how much hard work and dedication, lie behind this level of skill. The long hours of practice ...
Yeah ! Like liquid gold, but on a silver flute.
Don't know why but this piece brings me to tears. Such beautiful melody.
It is the passion !
I agree. To me, it brings forth almost all of the flute's capabilities and also pitfalls. It represents very well the best potential of the instrument. It's a showpiece!
i mean the song is inspired by rejection
C'est la magie qui opère.
My flute teacher assigned this to me as a "summer project" so that sums up my summer😬
Ur lucky to even have one, try to be more appreciative... I can't afford one. But I really love this piece.
This is my summer project too
My flute teacher assigned this to me, too. But I don't have to do it for summer
That’s why they put the sum in summer.
same 😅
This video went up 30k views after audition season lol
Johnny Poon as do most classical performances 😬
😂

(and for the sake of flute playing in general! so much pigeonholing with classical concert flute :/)
Lmfao that’s hilarious
I’m sure you’ll do good though!
Who gives a fuck about u lmao 💀💀😭😭
And remember that she doesn't have any sheet music in front of her. I-
it''s amazing how someone can remember so much music! it's a skill in itself
@@rebeccatriggs4182 after you've practiced it for the 100+ time youd be surprised how much is just muscle memory. Still shes a professional and it is still amazing to witness.
this whole piece is around 7 minutes long as well! im so jelly of her memory and her tone..bim learning it right now
So beautiful. Bravo Hayley Miller. Bravo! Even with the power of a full orchestra behind you, you still soared.
If you listen close enough, you can hear at 0:24 you can hear that when the conductor says "crashed the wedding" there is a literal crash in the background.
Jessie Wang lol 😂
Woooow LOL that's so crazy! I put my phone to hear to hear it🤣😂
Musician humor me thinks.❤

That wasn't intended by the composer, it was written for flute and piano first, then arranged
Do your research!!!

There is more than one flautists
Love this performance. Great flair and the tempo is spot on!
Get yourself a person that looks at you the way the oboe player looks at her when she walks on
I’m lovin’ it 😍

Extremely well done, beautiful, precise, very musical.
My mom used to love to hear me play this. R.I.P. My mom and best friend. 😢❤❤
OMG she is so good. I have to play this solo for All district band next year... AAHHHHH!
NAME OF THE MUSIC PIECE
@Mialee Smith It´s been 3 years since then, I am curious of how it went.
What a performance! Special props to the rest of the band for making it epic!
watched this video while learning this piece in 7th grade and i still watch it now a soph. in college. so lovely and effortless
same haha!! first got introduced to this piece / performance in middle school and now i’m listening again as a college sophomore
Coming out of retirement to play my flute after 18 years. Beautiful!
Just wonderful. Fabulous. This music is so evocative of the early Twentieth C. It must have been one of the most exciting times to live, ever. What a lovely musician this lady is!
Amazing tone and musicality!
Ugh a queen. We stan
This is now my forever summer night memory...Beautifully composed.
I love how the composer crashed the wedding, handed out the sheet music to the orchestra, and then started slaying
Beautiful Concerto and beautiful sound of the flute player and the rest of the Orchestra, Well done!
I can't stop crying, this is so fucking beautiful
Well done young lady, I'm in the middle of learning this myself x
me too. :)

Brava! It’s the year 2020 and I just listened for the first time to this performance.
Thanks for such beautiful and exquisite performance. . . just evoking the hidden capacity of our appreciation for orchestra music! Thanks!
Very nice. I sat here n cried bc its one of my favorite.
Absolutely gorgeous performance. Thank you for being an inspiration to me while I've been getting ready for my performance of it with orchestra. Beautiful playing!!
I came for the piece and stayed for her. Wow, she's as beautiful as the music.
Sounded like it'd be in the soundtrack to a Disney 50s movie, absolutely loved it really paints a picture in your head
A thoroughly enjoyable performance, loved it - thank you 👏👏👏👏👏👏
I learned this one summer in high school as well. It's a great piece.

Thank you for share such a mastered performance

Even though flutes are the quietest she make her really loud she she is heard
@@rtc_twisted7952 yeah I can't mind make my louder
@@rtc_twisted7952 yes
lol when they show the other flute players in the backgroud.
There was something miracle in flute sound. It’s my childhood memory from cartoon and I movie I guess :)
That was actually breathtaking. Amazing, wow!
Literally "Breathtaking" ... takes a lot of breath and finger control to play those tunes.👏👏👏👌
My 9months old son loves listening to this every night 😊
so beautiful :’) watching this for inspiration to play flute again
Bravissimo Madam! A masterful, perfect interpretation....
I had discovered this work during a concert of the Harmony of Valenciennes (France) in ... 1989. I had never listened to this piece again since.
I don't have words. Amazing
Absolutely flawless
I'd yell bravo, but it's a video.
Beautiful and beautifully performed, by all. 👏👏👏
Just amazing, a beautiful sound to my ears.
It makes me long to want to play thr flute again
I love the expression on her face when she’s done cuz she knows she slayed
Adorei! Grande flautista. Vou procurar outras gravações dela pra ouvir.💯👏👏👏👏
BEAUTIFULLY performed!! Not rushed…fast parts played like music not a technical exercise.
yet some of these runs are just technical exercises lmao
I once had to play this at a concert and it was amazing
amazing flute....
sounds like a bird fly in the sky~~~
i appreciate for composer, performer etc🙌🙆
Bravo... really beautiful..Thank you.
Magnifique !
C'est une délicieuse interprétation.
Merci.
I was very impressed with the neat expression and willpower. And the smile after the performance was a proof that the musician had something essential. Thank you! (#^.^#)
I am speechless, this was beautiful
I wonder what brand flute she used
Isnt bout the Brand
What's all this nonsense in the comments about her sound not being large enough and getting swamped by orchestra? I can't hear any evidence of this, and her technical prowess and tone seem to me exemplary.
I guess people aren't used to the tutti sections because they are not in the piano version?
Wow I love this 😶👍🎵🎼🎶😊🎧
HOLY MOLY THAT A AT 8:29 WAS TRULY AMAZING
Absolutely beautiful
esplendido, totalmente esplendido ♥ 🌟 se siente el sentimiento 💞
Beautiful!!! Божественно!!!
Виртуозно!!!
Precioso! Impecable y excelente solfeo... Esta obra me parece como un suspiro al inicio y la intensidad a la que llega sin caer en el virtuosismo obsoleto hizo una interpretación formidable.
Perfeita a execução 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Você é músico?
Effortless, stunning, perfect.
Ig it’s bc I’m a flutist but It was easy for me to be able to hear her throughout the performance even when the orchestra got stronger
Definitely. I played flute decades ago and was able to follow her throughout. Beautiful work. 😊
Amazing flute player! I love my flute too.
Wow! Magnificent!
Such beautiful performance by everyone 💯 the orchestra and the soloist really breathed life into this piece 😉 I liked the introductory speech, made me listen to this song with a different perspective
