Today begins my journey of learning to play Lowell Liebermann's Flute Concerto.
I can't really use words right now, because I just listened to the first movement and am almost ready to rip my clothes off and run through the empty music building with my flute on fire acting as a torch, lighting my way. Because that's what it's going to be like to play this piece.
Running naked, carrying a torch.
But I am not going to post a recording of the Concerto yet, (y'all are entirely capable of youtubing. Even my former high school teachers, who would say in the middle of class, "Today we're going to watch something on The Youtube," pronounced "You Two-Bah," and were so excited about it that their butts were practically wagging, can use Youtube on their own.)
What I am going to post is what I found in the process of looking for a recording.
There will never be a point during the viewing of this, at which the audience will not be uncomfortable.
BUT WHAT I JUST FOUND THAT IS EVEN BETTER...
Is the behind the scenes video of the making of this film.
Wow. Kudos to you Katherine Bryan. You have just livened up my Winter Break.
HAHHAHHAHHA Oh my goodness, literally so hilarious.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, i was extremely uncomfortable.
Nice piece, though
