Sight reading with an instrument isn't really that difficult as long as you know how to read music and play the instrument. Don't get me wrong, playing flight of the bumblebee, albeit at this slower speed, is still impressive. I couldn't play it at that speed. But if you're going to play a classical piece to impress people, take the time to practice the piece and play flight of the bumblebee At its natural 600 beats per minute.
@@ameliajohnson8428 I used to move my fingers around so much after I messed up that my old flute had some of its keys slightly bent, when I went to repare it people were like "bro wtf?!"
At some point it switched from reading to muscle memory. It's a bit of both. And you can remember how the song goes and what pitches sound like in tune.
YOU GUYS okay so I know I played the last three measures incorrectly. I'm human and make mistakes. I spent more time focusing on the difficult passages and made a silly mistake. That's why you should spend more than 90 minutes learning a piece ;)
I also feel like part of the difficulty on flute is breath capacity. Maybe it’s just me as a severe asthmatic, but the speed and finding time to breath is hard.
I think it’s supposed to lol bc since bees wings flap super fast. Also maybe to show how it flies around u and u don’t know whether it’s gonna sting u or not so maybe that was the composer’s intention. To show that through the music.
Flight of the bumblebee is a good bang for your buck type piece. I think at 14 I only did 2 things. Play chromatic scales and this. My parents were impressed so mission accomplished
*Realizing that my band teacher used this song to impress everyone in school and convinced me to pay to learn to play the flute when all he was doing was practicing scales:* I was bamboozled!
I love how it shows parts of her messing up because it proves that you can’t expect someone to be able to play something just straight all the way through in order to be an AMAZING player
It also depends on the instrument. Different instruments will have different difficulty levels for the same song. Like with piano, you have to be able to play the main part 15 notes per second as well as the left hand, whereas with other instruments you only need to master the one part. I think they are difficult, but its more than just chromatic scales but faster
Yeah, but if you watch, she would raise her fingers not immediately going to be used around 1 1/2 to 2 inches above, rather than almost on top. Sure, when she would constantly use a finger (such as right ring finger on F#, Eb, D, etc.), she was almost on top of it the whole time, but I did notice her raising it when not in use.
I told my 6th grade friend as a joke that he should learn to play flight of the Bumblebee on flute because he was so good.... he can play part of it already in 6th grade beginning band!

You play the flute so well! Your ability to seamlessly switch from low to high notes, and keeping the tone so clear was impressive. That piece is not for the faint of heart - enjoyed hearing your practice session.
Yoonji The Explorer Twoset jokes are in the comments of every instrument based TH-cam video.... all of them.... excessively. It’s just the same jokes over and over again
I was about to comment about how you read through it in 8 minutes and then you immediately drank from your Juilliard mug and I was like oh...never mind 👏👏👏👏
me: *never played flute or any other instrument and never heard of "Flight of the Bumblebee"* youtube: hey, you might like this video! I actually really enjoyed the video! :)
as a classical musician (vocalist) who knows absolutely nothing about the flute, this is incredibly impressive to me despite how easy it may or may not be. just discovered your content and i love it! keep it up 😋❤️
You're amazing. I have sung the choral version in High School.... took 2 weeks to learn it but you slayed it at 90 minutes. Brava. You should be proud of yourself.
You can probably play the piece easily. The notes aren't difficult at all, the only difficulty is the speed, so technically you can still play it, just not at the intended speed.
I liked the process of learning the piece that you used. As a saxophonist, I struggle with playing the 3rd octave on the flute cleanly. Seeing you do it slowly at first with the correct breath control before taking the tempo up was great to see. You did a very good job with this piece in such a short time. And you made a fun video to watch. Thanks!
Not being sarcastic when I say every moment of sarcasm and snark in this video made it awesome...and the only video on TH-cam I watched from beginning to end today.
As a instrument player ( like myself) I feel that the song '' Flight of the Bumblebee'' is one of those pieces that shows that you've mastered your instrument . But its not the hardest. I think that people are really intimidated by the fact that its fast and most of them don't know their scales.
I love how you referenced TwoSetViolin. I like both your channels because I’m an orchestra student and I played alto saxophone for one year in band. You are so amazing at flute and I am definitely inspired by how well you practice.
That was great!!!! This inspires me to go practice! I’m a band director and this will be cool to show my kids I can play it and all it takes is knowing your chromatic scale! 🤓
I just started watching your channel and I haven’t played “competitively” in many years, but I’m happy to know others flutists just say yeachhhh when they mess up.
Seriously, yes, this piece is meant to be fast, but there are so many other pieces that are so much more rythmically and dynamically difficult and still have a fast tempo. I don't see why it regarded as "the most difficult"
I see I have a lot of things to practice articulations, chromatic scales, and my tempo. Even though my flute is not the best I still have room to practice how to play at my best and work towards my goal of being a great flute player and I’ve only been playing since 6th grade and seeing you do this makes me want to try at this too thank you Katie.
Now that you’ve mentioned it... Can you learn circular breathing? THAT is the Holy Grail (like the 9yo does) not the bumble bee. Just kidding, great job and very high quality flute content!
am i the only one who literally swings their flute everywhere when they get frustrated when they mess up and end up smacking their own face and then it hits the stand and gets all scratched and then gets sued by their parents just me? *ok*

its more like reading the shape and the pattern
oof... AGREED.. but dude it takes so much muscle memory its insane.... I kind want to try this piece heh
It's just a chromatic scale. Your whole song is a chromatic scale.
bruh, I suck at sight reading honestly-
YOU GUYS okay so I know I played the last three measures incorrectly. I'm human and make mistakes. I spent more time focusing on the difficult passages and made a silly mistake. That's why you should spend more than 90 minutes learning a piece ;)

Miguel Pabón Lolol 🤣

I think the reason why People think flight of the bumblebee is hard is how fast it is and how fast your fingers have to move
Laura's Art World For me i avoid it because of all the accidentals
ChaoticNinja same
I learned it on piano and it wasn’t hard at all
It’s basically 16th note chromatics
I also feel like part of the difficulty on flute is breath capacity. Maybe it’s just me as a severe asthmatic, but the speed and finding time to breath is hard.
Does Flight of the Bumblebee give anyone else legit feelings of anxiety or is it just me?
Me too

Olivia Kight it does work for flute players
I have only been able to do it on bassoon (I learned by accident!) - I have tried and tried on clarinet, and no luck 😰
Rhonda Seiter HOW?!?! Please let me know
@@okiolivia175 i thought it would be easier on flute- i cant do it at all on the alto sax
A S for me, it was opening something at the back of my throat and practicing and practicing
am i the only one who literally swings their flute everywhere when they get frustrated when they mess up and end up smacking their own face and then it hits the stand and gets all scratched and then gets sued by their parents
just me? *ok*
I do get angry and end up hitting my teeth
I always got my face with my flute in class. but luckily only my friends pay attention to me lol
Youre not the only one lol
Me too... And our usernames are very similar!!!
I vent frustration by ending a classical piece with a blast of Herbie Mann mixed harmonics.
You play so good, thank you for inspiring me. I play the Flute, Piccolo and the Piano!
# Love the Flute
It sure is a lovely instrument to play. 🤗👍🏽
I just bought a Muramatsu in January, I am absolutely in LOVE. My professors all prefer it to my Pearl!
I LOVE muramatsus :)
Flight of the Bumblebee is sacrilegious
**If you can play it slowly you can play it quickly**
Brett and Eddie would be proud. They should react to this!
