When listening to various players, singers online, I am struck at how truly ridiculous comments like "she/he sounds like so and so." First of all, no one sounds like anyone except themselves. Every player, singer, is truly unique. You will know this when you see and hear them in live performances. Please stop comparing players from what is captured on TH-cam. It is disrespectful to truly good artists, and it is stupid--and I mean that with no malice. (BTW: I have heard Wincenc and Porter too many times to count in live performances, trust me, each is an exceptional flutist/musician, in their own right. It isn't just the sonorite of the instrument, it's the player, their personality, energy, etc.)
Superb. Congratulations, Amy. This is a masterclass in professionalism, and a performance full of colour, light, shade, changes of mood and of character.
She can play just about every etude she ever learned from memory and play them flawlessly and with beautiful tone and expression. She truly is something very special.
Just terrific. Love this piece. Will have to drag it out and see if I can still play it. Used to do this with my built in accompanist mother. But, not for any performance, just for fun.
amazing energy and character to the music...not to mention I love her sound...kind of similar to that of Carol Wincenc.
@som Slovaak that's why its subjective and open to opinion. Thanks for keeping these comments positive.

Well said indeed....it's like people telling folk like these how to play.

My absolute favorite recording of this piece!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
You have inspired me to get practicing. That performance was just beautiful and full of energy.
Terrific! Great stage presence. And, all memorized. More like JP Rampal!
