I spent about 2h yesterday searching for bass flute performances on youtube, and this is by far the most beautiful one. Congratulations to Catherine McMichael for her piece and also to Lisa Hedley for her solo. Inspiring stuff! :)
Thank you so much! Bass flute is very beautiful :-). Here is a link of me playing this movement with piano: th-cam.com/video/DNR60mD70j0/w-d-xo.html. Whether you play clarinet or bass flute, I'm glad you're making music.
Lisa Hedley It's really a Tenor Flute, & yes the 3'rd octave is the easiest to do w/ lots of practice. Fun fact playing flute repritore on a C Tenor flute (Sounding down an octave) takes practice. A Low B foot joint for the C Tenor flute is now available by Yamaha & will extend the range downwards.
So glad you liked the piece! For mics I used the Pro 35x by audio-technica (cardioid condenser). Each flute had its own mic, which plugged into my mixer board.
From the thumbnail I thought this was Erin Hannigan. (Dallas Symphony principal oboe) I thought "wow I guess she plays flute as well as oboe or something.
What a beautiful sub-contrabass flute in the background and the absolutely masterful performance

So glad you enjoyed it!
Great pitch control Lisa. Makes me want to practice-a lot!
Bravo! Beautiful piece, well played. Much enjoyed.
Loved this had never heard a bass flute, your playing is beautiful. I have started clarinet but would rather play the bass flute now 😁

I'm not a fan of the flute as find it too high pitched for my liking but the bass flute sounds beautiful.

Beautiful sound
