Whether one hears her at the beginning subtely or not at all, I would say that the progressive emergence of the recorder from the mass of the orchestra is a very beautiful effect, clearly intentional in the writing of this piece, and perfectly rendered in this performance.

@@garynelson561 - the recorder is the solo instrument in this concerto, however, at times the other instruments play together with the recorder , and these times are marked as 'tutti' , and the solo parts are marked 'solo' in the score. The recorder should still be clearly heard even when all the instruments are playing together: we should expect to hear her playing even at the very beginning.

honeychurchgipsy6 that is true, but sometimes the group and soloist decide the interpretation of a piece, each rendition of this will be different...that’s one of the things that makes ensemble playing so special!!!! I just love how the recorder gradually starts to sing over the group like a song bird in the morning.

Look up how much a handmade recorder out of the best, precious woods cost, and you would change your mind on 'modest'. In America recorders are generally not valued, and not taught well. But in most of Europe, it is considered a serious instrument. Which is why the best recorder players in the world are generally Dutch, German, Danish, with very few exceptions.

@@ursulamargrit I said "modest" because that's the wind instrument found in schools at the beginner's level. Some are even made of plastic and cost very little, but above all what makes this instrment modest is its low decibel output. If a composer wants a fortissimo he'll write the part for any instrument but the recorder. Its warm and soft sound evokes the natural world, shepherds playing it while watching their flock of sheep. It's true that the recorder is considered ,unjustly so, the poor relative of wind instruments because nowadays value is given above all factors, to the decibel potential

@@Khamomil Okay, I do see your point. Of course, even some professionals use high end plastic recorders - they're useful when practicing, or when you've played so long that your wooden recorder gets too moist (which of course is why having several wooden recorders is a good idea, so you can switch).

I really enjoy how the recorder blends with the orchestra! I think baroque music should be very mellow and blended with period instruments as represented in this performance; but, the recorder is still very emergent when you actively listen for it, bravo.

Just pure excellence! Thank you for this beautiful performance. All the musicians were fantastic.

wooow. she live piece whe she play. i am charmign. wonderful record wonderful orcestra. thanks for all of musician who played. i couldnt find any word

¡Qué fuerza y expresividad de la flautista! Ciertamente, una de las mejores interpretaciones de este clásico de Vivaldi que haya escuchado. Me ha erizado la piel y de haber estado en vivo el impacto habría sido mayor. Bolette Roed, ¡ya eres mi favorita!

Who else is here 4years later

Always fascinating to watch a musician who's really into the music.

Well interpreted, Devine baroque music, That’s Antonio Vivaldi all right.

I can't get enough of this, I adore it,,i actually get a bit tearful listening, I know its an uplifting concerto,, but that what music does,,(trust I'm a mess with William Byrd and Tallis and such 😉) such a talented group and powerful beautiful red head leading,, brilliant,!!

Un corcerto meraviglioso con una flautista a dir poco fantastica. Padronanza dello strumento con una tecnica precisissima.molto preparata e passionale. 10 e lode!!!!

Wonderful performance of one of Vivaldi's most beautiful concerts!

Jim Millen - I suspect they are both equally difficult, it's just that you have 30 years experience with the transverse flute and have forgotten how hard it was to develop a good embouchure. The difficulties with recorder come further down the road: the early stages seem easy and natural, and most beginners are pleased at how quickly they are playing simple tunes. This is both the wonder and the downfall of the recorder, and the reason why it is rarely played well or taken seriously as an instrument. I hope you don't give up - if you can play flute you can play recorder. (from a recorder player)

@@honeychurchgipsy6 they share the repertoire. its very difficult to play the recorder really well.you need to be able to play the different sizes in different keys and transpose, also read the bass clef not to mention difficult techniques, crossfingering etc. no special embouchure required which makes the recorder deceptively simple at the beginning.I play at an advanced level and in an ensemble.We have a teacher who studied the recorder in Amsterdam.

honeychurchgipsy6 - I agree, I am a flute player majoring in performance currently & I picked up my recorder today because I’ve always wanted to learn & be better at plus I think it’s quite an amazing instrument. I love the way you worded your description, there’s a lot of truth in that statement, & I think it’s entirely accurate. While it is quick to first play simple tunes the instrument is quite deceptive when comes to “actual literature/repertoire”. It wasn’t super difficult to learn many of the fingerings as some are identical to flute but it definitely takes some work to develop a solid tone & control! I think control is something that definetly takes time with this instrument especially in the upper register. It takes a decent amount of effort to play high notes at a softer dynamic without them being too piercing. It could be that I’m playing on a plastic one that they us play in elementary school but nonetheless it is a great instrument that should not be overlooked.
