I'm just in a faze, so please forgive me.
Here's a tune I am trying to work back up. It's called the Destitution Reel. I learned it from an old recording of the group Ground Plan.

Here's a couple of reels played on my blackwood Martin Doyle. I'd appreciate any feedback...

I would love to hear this without the backing... Sorry, I just want to concentrate on the flute part and I find that tough to do with the accompaniment.

Easily done with the wonders of modern technology. Here you go:

My first recordings on flute. Took me hours to get a run without a train wreck. Played on my plastic Copley. (Delrin, actually, but whenever I tell people that they always think it's some kind of wood.)

All critiques welcome. Let me know what I'm doing wrong.

So, umm, after a month of playing here's where I'm at... I would really appreciate and criticism that will help me improve. (I'm talking about the flute playing of course, appearance and whatnot will take more time/effort/trouble to improve than I'm willing to expend... )

As far as I can tell, it's not very in tune, and rhythm, drive and musicality are all lacking...

anyway, thanks for taking a look.

so, you've "turned yer headjoint in" ta get the reedy sound.

then ya bend yer left wrist back to roll it back out so's ya can play the sucker....

My suggestion is to put a sign that says DO NOT ENTER. RECORDING! on the outside of the door when you are recording.

Great playing and tone Holmes. Be careful with the rhythm, you tend to speed up a bit on some passages.

Nice. I felt like by the time you got to the third part you just started to relax....

Relaxing? Always a good thing! Keep up the great work!
Anyway, I am no expert.... just listen o my clips and you'll see what I mean. Also, not so great at giving feedback.
Just wanted to encourage you to stay with it!
Cheers, Arbo
