Hello everyone!
Yes I had the opportunity of borrowing a friend's flute for a week.That
isn't a long time and I haven't played it a lot even before that. So I am
doing it rather inexpertly. Still that tune wanted out. It's actually part of
the 3-part invention in G-minor. If I add, that it is by Bach, I suppose I
will surprise no one. :-)

The flute was a simple Yamaha flute, the microphone my usual xray live mic.
I think I stood a little too close to the microphone and I could have done
more about deadening the room, but I still like it. Not because of my playing,
just because it's a nice piece of music and the flute is a very nice
instrument.
Comments are welcome as always, you may criticise my playing abilities, but
don't expect me to get a chance to practise too soon. :-)
Warmly yours
Julien
Not a piece I particularly like, but a good effort on your part. Did you ever
get any instruction on 'circular breathing'? It's not a technique I ever
mastered but with any wind instruments it helps you maintain long notes and
smooth changes.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
