@VeselijLis haha! you're far too kind

This is a nice duet between piano and fujara. The fujara is a very large Slovakian overtone #flute with 3 finger holes. The one played in this is in G, a very common size offering a warm sound, balanced range and good volume. It's around 174cm / 5ft 8inch tall. One thing that fujara does really well is expressive trills, which you can hear right at the start of this piece.#Music #Ethnomusicology #WorldMusichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQwg6P_Lpx4

St. Matthew’s Passion preparations. I put one or two of these little handwarmers in my trouser pockets and that keeps my whole body warm. Bought enough for the whole week. Too bad I didn’t remember this trick before the icy three hours in the audience last week! Won’t need them today though, today’s concert is wearing choir robes and standing up singing. A couple of sweaters under the robes will do. #choir #music #flute #classicalmusic

This is an escalation of ability.I thought that the tuba players having their own dance spins was going to be the high point.Then the glock player was playing in mid-air when xyr routine involved jumps.Then the entire trombone section switched ranks around one another, whilst playing.The #TachibanaSHSBand still had it back in 2025. (I'm not caught up with 2026 yet.)https://youtube.com/v/xGwWD_04fcQ?list=PL3jM7WoAnNzSJY7xcW2PhmKR9HpmDNKC5&index=134#trombonists #glockenspiel #tuba

Found one of my favourite gig photos while looking for something else. (This was pretty much how it was shot, and little contrast adjustment) #Photography #MusicSky #Musicians #Saxophone #ECK

Prokofiev's 1936 classic uses specific #instruments like the #flute for a #bird and strings for Peter to tell an orchestral story.This #NewJersey #Symphony performance combines #animation and costumed musicians to help listeners hear how each instrument takes the lead.

Happy (early) birthday to me! 1926 Buescher soprano sax. Did I need it? No. Has it been taunting me on marketplace for months until I finally had an opportunity to look at it in person and pick it up today? Yes. Needs a little TLC, but playable.Looks pretty good with its siblings already in the collection: 1927 alto and 1922 tenor. All Buescher True-Tone Low Pitch, all silver plated. It's a shame my bari (also Buescher) is from 1955 and brass lacquer finish...#saxophone #buescher #vintage

"You're under arrest for drug paraphernalia." Me, playing a jaunty tune on my medieval silver flute:

Does anyone have expertise with midi controllers and audio output? My understanding is that this is a midi controller, and we need something like an iPad+Mainstage to output sounds. It looks like I need to also buy something called a USB Audio Interface to link it together into a signal for the amp? Something like the MOTU M2 or similar? Do I actually need this or can the iPad handle everything?

@kalmanreti @classicalmusic For the complete #Grieg orchestral music, including Peer Gynt (both suites and the complete incidental music), my first choice is the recording by Ole Kristian Ruud and the Bergen Philharmonic. Simply astonishing.
