Flute Practice Frustration
Комедия
Score consists of long tones, scales, and two excerpts from Borne's Carmen Fantasy (Habanera variation 1 and the finale), as practiced by an extremely impatient flutist.

Finally, some good fucking program music. Also "fearfully" and "without hearing" are annotations I can get behind. Awesome and hilarious work, Daniel!

My band teacher gave us Carmen. I know EXACTLY what you mean.
I'd love to hear this piece played on an actual flute! The digital sound sample used in this recording is superb, but it just doesn't carry the same weight and feel as I would expect to hear from a live performance, especially on the runs. I know a live performance would be lacking in precision, but let's hear it as it would display the real frustration much better!
I love how one of the breathing areas it says “gasp like your dying” lol 😂

@@RED40HOURS this is just known as fast chromatic, of course "jazz" offers a chromatic in it, but fits in categories of pentatonic, blues, or a chord where it follows a set of notes but adds in a slide of chromatic slope in it.

I’ve played for nearly 11 and this has also struck me personally. Especially with the pieces I’ve been noodling with for my college recital.
our band was actually talking about breathing a few weeks ago and my teacher told us ‘YOU CANT BREATH!’ and ‘You should pass out at the concert before you breath on a bar line’ and my personal favorite ’if you breath on a bar line your family will be cursed forever’ she’s great. and she called us out in front of the whole concert band 🤠🤠

As a flute player, I don't have air to express my feelings.
“I’ll get it up to speed eventually” I felt that. It’s been a month and I have given up on that piece 😂😂

1:31 "It'll get up to tempo eventually right?" These are the lies we tell ourselves so we can sleep at night.
I've never been so offended by something I so completely agree with
Most accurate description of practicing flute I've ever heard. The most relatable part was the, "I'll get it up to tempo eventually right?"

As someone who's mother is a professional flute teacher at music school i can confirm, not as the one playing, but as the one having to listen to this 5 hours a day. Every day. Her music is amazing and flawless. And its so soothing to listen to the stuff she plays but 5 hours are pretty long id say. Conpared to the single hour i invest into my violin everyday...
i play the flute enough to realize just how agonizing this would be
I feel personally attacked lmao

That was extremely beautiful nonetheless You just gave me a new goal and that even though I'm first flute in high school band I can't play that but I'm about to learn it
the way my fight or flight reaction was triggered as soon as I saw that tempo piano to forte as the first note, and knew I was in for a scary haul
that part in the middle was a BOP bro omg
I burst into laughter, when it said: "gasp you're dying"
Very nice!
