In this masterclass, Silvia Careddu works with student Yunmo Zhang to understand the style and phrasing in the first two movements of J.S. Bach’s Sonata in e minor. She stresses the importance of studying the full score with special attention to the bass line, which gives the performers information on when to change their tone color or dynamics. She also emphasizes that the flutist must use the correct airspeed to create a presence in the sound that balances with the piano, without losing the style. In the first movement, Careddu helps Zhang discover where to take time for the phrases and how to create long musical lines. In the second movement, she warns against rushing the tempo. She also helps him decide when the music should feel vertical and when it can be more lyrical, as well as how to produce an articulation that matches the character of the piece.
What we learn:
- Using the bass line (or left hand of piano) to determine the phrasing.
- Playing longer phrases and musical lines.
- How to have more presence in the sound without increasing vibrato.
- When to take time for phrasing and intervals.
- Using rhythm and articulation to achieve the right character.

Wonderful suggestions.

[@rlaflamme865]

repos=rest 😉

[@juankliss]

Too fast. Indication is adagio (ma non tanto), this is way over andante. All the problems come from that.

[@YCChi-xi7et]

I don’t think so, I check my metronome his tempo is around 48, it’s little faster than we usually heard, but it’s adagio « ma non tanto »for sure

[@ALBICOMUS]

Ja, das Tempo ist zu schnell, es wirkt gehetzt. Wichtig ist hier auch die Zweierbindung!

[@ivansarkany314]

Very confusing instructions. The student did well.

[@YCChi-xi7et]

I don’t think it’s confusing, if you are familiar with the score, of course not only flute part
