Gril is swept away by the Moon River - Art

[susannewilliams]

Beloved, we came to our river under the moon.
And so I let my flute cry the song of our hearts.

This is what happened on a recent evening out in the deep forest. I came by a river under the full moon and was so overwhelmed by the beauty that I had to film it.

Also I had my flute with me...I played my heart out.

Made me smile Susanne, I know what you felt. Perhaps the water spirits touched your heart that night, and I'm sure the memory will remain precious..:)

Nice notes Susanne ...

very reminiscent of Tim Wheater's playing though he used Bohem system flutes and loads of echo/reverb !!!

I used to take my favourite flute , an Arrie De Keyser blackwood simple system concert flute key of D ,

out to a local disused quarry ... got some natural echo off the rock walls !!!

Sometimes took the Hooligan pipes up there if I didn't want to disturb the neighburs when learning a new tune !!!

Nice to play outdoors for a change when for years it was always pubs , clubs , barndances ,

recording studios and weddings !!! Ha ha ha lol !!!

Yeah smokey pubs and sweaty studios.... Dzzt

I hadn't played for years, just didn't really have (or make) time to practice. Then I was given this native flute. Well. :-) Now I am playing again. ;-)

I tell you what. Get yourself a native flute. You will be able to play your heart out in 10 minutes.

It is TOTALLY easy.

Such an awesome sound. It really plays itself. :-)

I've heard quite a lot about Native flutes, and because they are pentatonic (5 note scale), they are certainly easy to play. In fact, many of the earliest flutes in the archaeological record were pentatonic.
I'm a bit of a flautist myself with the Pan-flute/Panpipes :). 'Tis a Magical experience to find a spot where the acoustics are great and play one's heart out. ;)

Wow...very enchanting! You've got the breath vibrato spot-on :D
I've got a place not too far by a tranquil pond surrounded by steep hills - lovely echoes there ;). I may buy myself a camcorder and have a bit of fun sometime :).

Please do! I would love to hear you play.

You guys are so kind with your comments and encouragements.

It may take a little while, though, as I'm currently unemployed :(. But in the meanwhile, you can listen to my Pan-flute teacher on YT - Brad White ;).
