I like how her fingers are able to soar all over the place, and yet still work. I'm a clarinetist, and at least there, it's a big thing not to let your fingers fly like that unless you're naturally good at that.

[@waterphoenix3691]

unless your playing flight of the bumblebee at 15 notes a second

[@fanqiejiang1749]

Trey Tillotson yup, and that one high note is gonna ruin it all

[@marelisebrink8727]

As a recorder player I’m constantly in trouble because my fingers soar all over the place. But, as you say, she manages to make it work even though her fingers are all over

[@austin7]

Because the recorder is such a flexible instrument, keeping your fingers close to the tone holes has a great effect on the intonation (more so than on the clarinet) P.s. I play clarinet and recorder(:

[@a.7889-v8f]

But aren't the key holes in the clarinet not only larger (meaning it's harder for your WHOLE FINGER to land on it properly if you're playing super fast) and secondly, perhaps the fact that you have to stretch your hands much more to reach all the keys on the clarinet? I figure those two things would make what she's doing here difficult on the clarinet?

[@singalongwithmr.wilson4627]

I've been showing this to my fourth and fifth grade classes to demonstrate that this instrument is, in fact, a legit musical instrument, not a little kid's noise-maker. Even though few of us will ever play at your level, your music inspires us with what is possible. Thanks so much for sharing it.

[@mrbig9100]

Here is another for your classes. It is more contemporary, but an amazing application of the instrument. If you watch close, he plays one recorder, then two at the same time, then flute, then back to recorder. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnWwdqyHe7ypp6c

The middle ages were long gone when this was composed the the Baroque period. The Renaissance would be a link between the two periods, where the instruments are still more "rough around the edges" and it sounds a lot more "middle-agey" but you can already hear where it's going towards the Baroque. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWXcqJ-OnpqXjqs
