I swear that listening to older recordings of the Greats is absolutely unmatched. The completely true sound. Absolutely BRILLIANT. Nicolet has been one of my favorite flutists since I was a youngin.
The quality is outstanding! There is no "force" ,no power, unlike on modern flutes. I mean, the tone ,the sonorite' .....; the interpretation...,extraordinarily! No Francesco, I too think that the tempo, although a little slow, "feels right". It somehow doesn`t have to be faster. I wonder what year it was recorded? Does anybody have an idea? And ...., what flute he was playing back then..;-) . Fluteplaying at it`s best!
Well said and I pretty much can find myself in your way of describing it! There is a sort of wisdom, undistorted perception and sensitivity in it that surpasses the plane of mere intellectualism and self-display that very often have been enforced upon us later on. All is so natural and refined and hence capable of redirecting us to a higher realm where true divine inspiration can be sensed and re-experienced, so that we feel uplifted and reminded of our true higher spiritual nature. The record has taken place in 1971 and the flute is a silver Johannes Hammig made by the only flute maker from the Hammig-family that was living in West Germany back on the day. Bernhard Hammig has taken over the factory in Lahr at the Black Forest in the South of Germany.
I love that tempo too! Most of us probably got adapted to a faster tempo, that is why it seems to be a litle too slow. But it matches perfectly the very romantic character of this masterpiece that Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, although still living during the late Baroque era, was able to adapt to after he freed himself from the galant style that was imposed before when he was at the palace of Frederick the Great.

@@verocimil Thank you so much for the update! I somehow thought that he was playing a J.Hammig flute on this recording. Excellent tone and sonority!
@@itistheflute5873 Yes, I totally agree, thank you very much as well!

Só tem flautista bom neste TH-cam. Tem outro dele em quinteto de fluta com Andras Adorjan, William Bennet, R Wilson,
It is so beautiful and pleasant to listen to. Which year was it recorded? I remember listening to Jean-Pierre Rampal's recording.
1971 and I totally agree that it is so beautiful and pleasant to listen to. I can't get enough of it!

Isn't the first movement a little too slow?
I like this tempo, it's very expressive.

Nice but too slow.
