Zitat des Tages von James Galway:
Control of vibrato helps your musical expression.
I have never received a flute from them for free and I would not accept such a gift from any manufacturer.
You can sightread better if you know your scales and arpeggios.
I have to report to those of you who think diamonds make a difference that I cannot tell what it is. Seriously, as you all know, they make no difference at all. They just make the flute look a little more special.
Yes indeed I have gained a lot out of playing scales and etudes.
I do not consider my self as having mastered the flute, but I get a real kick out of trying.
Scales played in the correct musical way are very exciting and rewarding.
The mind of the performer is a very strange thing.
Never just run through a study because you happen to be familiar with it, but use it to see what you can get from it on this new day which has been granted you.
Everyone who plays the flute should learn singing.
Being unprepared heightens nerves.
It is normal to be nervous.
Running through things because you are familiar with them, breeds routine and this is the seed of boredom.
I do not see scales as abstract.
