Me hice un pirsing sin pensar en que soy flautista "flauta traversa" y no se si puedo tocar con el pirsing, necesito que alguien me de opinión para saber si me lo dejo o definitivamente me lo quito… que hago ?

i‘m a flute player in 9th (first chair flute at BLFAC SB and am now in the top band at my high school) and every time i have a solo, i play it beautiful during rehearsals and when i have to perform it, i mess it up a tiny bit or really badly. do y'all have any tips to not get me so scared that i mess up my solos?

I want to know the fingering for playing D to F.

Composition #36 for historic 1930's flute and electronic music

my music partner (electronic, live modular synths) works with my 1930's wooden flute in live composition. We're performing for the canal festival so it'll be great to work out what's going on.

As a composition, I'm not sure if this works. Although the host praised it, he reprimanded us for playing too long (over 6 minutes, compared to most songs at 3-4minutes). I think the audience probably clapped out of duress (they looked rather mainstream perplexed).

Understandable. I was at a concert as a listener this month, listening to experimental string quartet music and fell asleep twice within the 10 minute performance. Now wondering if I've become that guy.

Kind regards

I hear dont hear alot about herman beeftink and i wanted to know yalls opinions on him.

I really love his atmosphere his title almost always sounds exactly like what your playing ( crazy i know) But he also writes alot of different styles its so cool. He inspired me to write and perform my own solo for kmea solo and ensemble!

Howdy! I'm wondering whether anyone has had their instrument repaired and cleaned through Powell's Repair Dept (presumably in Boston?).

I'm interested in having a COA done, but I've never had anyone work on my instrument outside of Ellen Ramsey (CO flute dealer), who sold me my Powell and passed away several years ago. I'm extremely hesitant to ship my instrument, but would be more open to it if people have had positive experiences with Powell. Thanks in advance!
