I'm Marcel Moyse's Great Granddaughter. I had met him many times as a child but it wasn't until his death that I found out how inspiring he was. His music is amazing and I deeply regret not spending more time with him. For those of you who knew him personally, thank you.
Hi Kate, Some of us out here are old enough to have had M. Moyse as a coach. We would travel up to Brattleboro--unforgettable--he was a great artist and inspiration.
Hallo, I saw your great grandfather one day when I stayed in a hotel in his birthplace St. Amour. I heard flute playing in one of the rooms. The hotelkeeper told me that a professeur born in St. Amour came every year with some students to teach them. After supper they stood outside the hotel and chatted, and one of his students told me details. At that time, must have been at the end of the seventies, Marcel Moyse was not able to play the flute himself anymore, according to the student. As I play the flute myself I will never forget that encounter. (Gerhart W. from Munich where the modern traverso flute was invented by Theobald Böhm almost 200 years ago)
Good to be reminded of his playing. Went to his class - twice - so many years ago, when he was already very very old. this is such beautiful playing. Noting the vibrato actually pretty perfect, especially for its time. Intonation gorgeous and nuances superb.
- The Moyse family were my neighbors back in the '50s. My mother told me that Marcel Moyse was considered to be the greatest flautist ever.. Apparently, eight deaf people disagree.
@PinKpAndAs1 I think it may be a Cuesnon . I have seen a few of these in Dublin and they had the extended left hand keys. One of Moyse's pupils, Andre Prieur who played in Dublin may have played one.
I've read that Moyse played a Louis Lot flute, or, later, a Powell body with his Lot head joint, presumably because the Lot body was at A-435. However, the closeup about a third of the way through is marked Cuesnon, so who knows.
Robert Aitken said that I should study with Moyse about 40 years ago... (...I wish I had...) Sincerely, Bill McBirnie (P.S. My Grandfather absolutely loved this piece.)
Robert Aitken said that? wow, I just went to his masterclass lesson last month, he said we young players should get our fingers as fast as we can while we can, and then refine later. Becoz when we are older we cannot get faster.

Dear Kate , Mr Moyse is a great man, his every work is my beacon to learn flute.
So did you ever get to meet James Galway?

For me and many Korean students, Marcel Moyse is a great teacher with his book "Sonorite" which is like the "Bible of flute practicising. "
Обожаю его исполнение! Влюблена!❤❤❤❤

マルセルモイーズこそ、フルートの神とも言える演奏家だと思います。
The master flute teacher of that century. Wish I'd played when he asked me. What a winning smile he had.
Bravo, Maestro! and always thanks!!!

Marcel Moyse was foundling. He had never known his father and mother.
It's perharps for that his music is so wonderful.

Marcel is my great grampere
best flutist ever .. i will replay this songss
He was flute king, sbsolutely the best, with best sound
For me the best was HANS-PETER SCHMITZ

정말 독특한연주네요
감동받고 갑니다~
같은 곡인데도 급이 다른 연주😂 정말 대단해요🖒

Moyse played a Lebret flute for his Doppler recording and later the Couesnon that he helped design.
音が透き通ってて良き
The best bar none,living or dead.

I remember studying with Bob and the stories he'd tell of Marcel. Many lessons to learn.
great, thanks for uploading.
He had key extensions! I need this. Makes me feel like a normal player heh
he had a very beautiful sound.
very warm and round tone
An old recording always is. The flutes were crafted with better materials. The older the flute the best tone and deeper it sounds. Im a flutist too.
This says everything.
Magnific!
What a stable sound je has, m'y kind, ans guess what: plateaux fermés!
GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The best from all the best

I've just turned 84 years of age and my fingers haven't slowed down.
Perhps Mr. Aikan's fingers are riddled with Arthritis.
Emozionante!!!!
Hello when is this recording made? It is very interesting for my research :) Thank you!
Goodgood😄😄😄!
Can anyone tell me if there was ' short' B flat device on the Couesnon flutes?
Lisnageeragh as far as I know, he always played a c FOOT, plateau model flute in a base metal.
Not on the model that he played, which was a customized Monopole.
Does anyone know what kind of flute that is in the picture? The one in the case
Gabi Best made by Couesnon to Louis Moyse own design specs. I have one.
