I somewhat disagree. This is Great stuff, awesome, inspiring, instructive and and a vindicaton of the recorder and dedication... but, in my opinion, the actual solo improvised on the spot by Michael Brecker originally is more legendary even ;)
ooomgoooosh? Really? Unbelievable. First audition I thought it was electronic production. NO!! Hey my friend. Perfect sync with Michael. Extreme difficulty. You're Amazing! Congrats!! 👋👋 My best regards from BRZ🇧🇷
That's because he's left handed. He's playing this with a recorder made for left handed which has the two holes inverted. I don't know personally the guy, just read the description.
Браво!!! Я в шоке от тех кто ставит дизлайки . Это наверное полные нули. Единицы могут повторить такое соло Брекера на саксофоне . Но на сопилке! Что такое сопилка... Фантастика!
Played backwards...right hand on top and here I am forcing (as a music teacher and how the recorder was taught) my students to use the left hand at the top. This is so AWESOME!
This is very impressive! I remember seeing this over a decade ago for the first time and now I get to show it to all the elementary kids in my music classes when they are starting recorders. It really helps reshape their perspectives and inspire those who don't view the instrument as fun or sounding good. Thanks for your contribution!
Monsieur puis-je vous remercier et vous prononcer la plus profonde gratitude d'avoir publié ces clips vidéo. Je suis saxophoniste et Michael Brecker signifie beaucoup pour moi. Autrefois, avant le sax, moi aussi j'ai joué de l'enrégistreur entre autres instruments de musique, j'ai aimé d' improviser sur lui. Grands respects à avous.
Bravo! Man this is tight. It does shed a new light for me on at one day maybe being able to cover a Michael solo on my sax. Great job of nailing it! Thank you for uploading your work.
@pipamusa Sharps and flats on a recorder are usually achieved by partially covering a hole. Can you imagine how precise this guy must be to play chromatic ascents and descents on a recorder at this speed?
Une performance qui commande le respect. Déjà, la transcription n'est pas aisée, mais de jouer de la flûte à bec avec une telle maîtrise est tout simplement hallucinant. Étant moi-même saxophoniste, je suis d'autant plus émerveillé. Bravo dans les douze tons !
REALLY???!!! Hats off to this cat for probably the most insane transcription and execution I have ever seen (insane meant in an absolute awe inspired / jaw dopping way ) .
Oh my god, my mind just exploded. I am thoroughly impressed, not just by the Michael Brecker transcription but also by the phenomenal recorder performance. Bravo!!
Man, when I used to play that sh_t on my tonette in first grade, the teacher would crack the baton over my head and say "quit playing so outside!" BTW, loved it! Nice Job!
Wow ! Quel patience et quelle mémoire auditive. Bravo ! C'est un magnifique solo. Becker était mon mentor. Apprendre ce solo à la flûte à bec est un exploit et ça prend sûrement un passionné pour le faire. Bravo !!
yep,,,,did nt know all semi tones were playable on the recorder,,,, ...i only play trumpet for 20 years now,,, this is for sure the most skillful performance on youtube,,, wow!!!!!
Neo: "I know Jazz"
Morpheus: "Show me"
This is the most legendary thing I’ve ever seen in my life

@@PabloVestory in a very meme like manner, this IS the MOST legendary thing ever 😂😝

This man restored the reputation of the recorder in less than 2,5 minutes for good...
Hysterics, great comment
Holy SHIT! ANYONE who can play one of Brecker's transcribed solos is amazing but this cat is a freakin' MONSTER!! RIGHT ON!!!
Morpheus: What training tape is this?
Tank: He wanted to learn jazz recorder.
How long's he been going?
2 Hours, this guy's a tank :O
wow. Had to watch that quite a few times...
Besides how impressive this is from a technical standpoint...it is also interesting that he plays it "reverse" handed with the right hand on top.
That's because he's left handed. He's playing this with a recorder made for left handed which has the two holes inverted. I don't know personally the guy, just read the description.
I am never, ever oing to think of the recorder as a "kid's instrument" ever again! He's amazing!
This is wicked man. Never thought it'd be possible. Respect for uploading it in sync.
I never heard the actual notes in this solo until now

Xiomar Lopez, I too am an instrumental music teacher and have taught the Recorder for many years. This goes WAY beyond "Hot Cross Buns." LOL!!
But the recorder is designed to be ambidextrous?
2020 here I just found this and wow this is actually inspiring
Great stuff!!!! How long have you practice each tune....not something ones learn in a coffiebreak!
Wants more of Your music!
*********Stars!
Can't believe what I just saw and heard! Wo man, I am deeply impressed!
This guy just blows my mind. I keep thinking, "This can't be real"!
Sick! - AND- he has his hands upside down!

This is my 3,945th time watching this.
In this world , there are many wonderful people whom I don't know.
I love this planet.
BRAVISSIMO!!! HI CLASS!!! БРАВИССИМО! ВЫСШИЙ КЛАСС!!!
Holy shit! Amazing! I never seen anyone blow a recorder like that. Thumbs up Benoit!
Incredible enough to transcribe and perform this, but to do it on a recorder is insane. Awesome job!
It makes me sick to my stomach how many hours must have been spent practicing the recorder to pull this off so clean.
Bravo! Man this is tight. It does shed a new light for me on at one day maybe being able to cover a Michael solo on my sax. Great job of nailing it! Thank you for uploading your work.
うわーリコーダーの天才がいた
You're a genius!
Unbelievable.... never heard such a great jazz-flute! Thank you so much, Benoit Sauve!
Who could put a thumbs down on this?!! This is amazing!
I didn't know that Keanu Reeves played recorder.
Jadesayade came for this comment
John Wick
When you play the recorder does it make the recorder breathtaking?
Why is this so hilarious and badass at the same time?
@pipamusa Sharps and flats on a recorder are usually achieved by partially covering a hole. Can you imagine how precise this guy must be to play chromatic ascents and descents on a recorder at this speed?
une sacrée maitrise qui s'est envolée au delà la performance... une fusée en orbite, ça déchire ! Bravo...
This is astounding. Thank you for sharing.
Une performance qui commande le respect. Déjà, la transcription n'est pas aisée, mais de jouer de la flûte à bec avec une telle maîtrise est tout simplement hallucinant.
Étant moi-même saxophoniste, je suis d'autant plus émerveillé. Bravo dans les douze tons !
REALLY???!!!

I simply got to love this stuff, it's just amazing how you blow your recorder in that funky way.
Wow ! Quel patience et quelle mémoire auditive. Bravo ! C'est un magnifique solo. Becker était mon mentor. Apprendre ce solo à la flûte à bec est un exploit et ça prend sûrement un passionné pour le faire. Bravo !!
holy shit thats sick haha
Wow, amazing! I can't believe you do that on that instrument
Sin palabras.....súper espectacular 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Woah! I didn't expect this!! Great job!! The French are the best jazz musicians outside the US. Bon Travail!!
Well, I don't know WHO you are, or who you THINK you are...but THAT'S BAD-ASS baby!!! Bar NONE...one of the most amazing things I have ever seen.
Absolutely crazy!
This is probably my new favorite video.
OH MY DAMN GOD!!!!! Thanks for this video, loved it
Easily the coolest thing I have seen on UA-cam ever!!!!
I have never seen a finer jazz recorder in my life
INSANE!!! I will never doubt the recorder again... :)
That's just insane... seriously??? I'm so impressed.
This is the most astonishing thing I've seen in a long time.
Incredible playing!!! I can't wait until the kids I teach in my Grade 5 recorder class see this - most of them still can't discern between F and G!
Unreal. I've been playing recorder for a long time. Thanks for pushing the envelope
FABULEUX !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! vraiment super Mr Sauvé :-)))))))))))) cela vaux 10000 pouces vert
Daaaammn! Insanely nasty! that is hard on sax but on recorder... extremely hard! kudos, dude
wow. never thought i would hear something like this on the recorder. i can't even think that fast. ça, c'est impossible!!!!!
OMG! Freakin' incredible. I think Brecker himself would have been amazed!
Wow - you've done an amazing job with this!!!
Luhvissimo! If I could have done this on either flute or saxophone - - -
Oh, Benoit! Mon Dieu!
