HOW BAD AM I?!! 1st time I've played my Mollenhauer Denner Edition Satinwood alto recorder 4 months

OMG not only am I so very rusty, but the recorder is playing flat (not warmed up) and the microphone is on the blink, recording all warbly... YUK. If you like my videos, it'd be wonderful if you could buy me a coffee - thanks! buymeacoffee.c...

I love watching your videos. Sometimes it good to have a break from playing. I hope you enjoy getting back into it. I practice most days but I like to have a rest sometimes. I'm coming to Yorkshire to visit family next week and I'll take a couple of recorders with me but I'll only play a little if I feel like it. 🙂

I like your recorder-videos, please keep practicing😊. You have beautiful instruments and playing them gives you so much pleasure. Nice shirt!

Thank you 🙏

Please don't be hard on yourself.. Sometimes life gets in the way! An instrument needs constant practice for both the player and the instrument to sound at their best. You just sight-read a Bach partita and hit all the right notes..It won't take long to get back up to speed, after all, you're not starting from scratch!
Enjoy the journey and be proud that you're a Musician who cares about her mum so much that you are willing to put your own enjoyment on the back burner.. That makes you a complete a good person in my book.. 😊
