If you haven’t heard about the Virtual Flute Choir, check this site and YouTube video out. What a cool idea! Flutists from all over the world submitted videos of themselves playing a pre-selected piece at a set tempo. Then those individual videos and recordings were recorded into a single performance. Neato keen!
To be honest, it sounds a lot better than most flute choirs I have heard. I’m a little suspicious about how much sound and pitch editing was done, but that doesn’t really matter. It is a good recording and the realization of a terrific idea. Kudos to Karen McLaughlin Large (fellow Florida Flute Association member) for her terrific idea and for making it all happen.
Here is the link to the website that describes the project and displays the video. You can also go to YouTube directly and watch the video from there.
