that projection, that volume, that clarity, that legato...supreme...

The sound is absolutely great and I live those big low tones!! You really make it sound if it was written for the flute!! I'm a flautist of 61 years old and you inspire me to take up practising this piece again! That is quite an achievement! Thank you very much!!!

He merges with the music -- it's not an issue of listening to flute playing but to Jacot playing the music with his entire body, with passion. I have listened to this again and again.

One of my favorite flutist ! His sound is really amazing 😍

Congratulations for the 1st prize in the Nielsen Competition!

His sound is so awesome!!

Amazing! I have performed this on many occasions on the Violin, and had never ever imagined it being played on any other instrument...but the FLUTE!!! well, I am uber impressed. I was slightly apprehensive as to how you would perform the double stopping and the lower registered notes below what a flute can reach, but they were very subtly executed and I am in love with this piece once again due to your interpretation and instrumentation of this already outstanding piece of music...bravo!!!

I didnt know the flute could match this song!!! Perfect demonstration!!!

Excellent playing, and excellent sounding flute because made of wood. Less harsh sounding even though it's such an intensive piece of music.

Ç'est une vrai musique de bravoure! Bravo! Je sais que votre flûte et votre technique est le résultat de beaucoup de recherches et en plus vous y mettez une expressivité libre en y prenant des risques. Ç'est ce qu'on aime voir et entendre en concert.

FANTASTIC!!

this is BRILLIANT!you are awesome!

Sebastien you are awesome!!!

I believe you are world best !!!

Great! Bravo!

congratulations!!!!! Awesome performance! And I love your sound!

So beautiful! Makes me want to get out my old Gemeinhardt and play!

Ears don't care what your hair looks like! You are a great genius of the flute! A regular Charles Nicholson!

What absolutely beautiful playing!

Fantastic playing. Bravo!

Absolutely beautiful!!! Great interpretation of this...love seeing other people use wood flutes, too. :) I played an Abell for a very long time, and am thinking of switching back to wood, probably a cocus wood Sankyo. You're fantastic!

Hmm, but youv'e got great company in your bathtub Sebastian, great performance Sjaak!

My wife,Dorothy/N.E.Conservatory grad-72/just listened to KZfaq Mendelssohn violin on wooden flute. She loves this; she learned to play flute on violin music. She plays a Haynes ..may trade for a wooden flute. She fondly remembers Mr.Zoon when he was in Boston. Hoping to be in Japan within a year. Looking for connections for recitaling. Calling Haynes factory next week re: wooden flutes. Didn't see a reply to SirMTB. thx

this is beautiful!

Genial !! Bravo , muy bien en el concurso Carl Nielsen , Exitos!!

Fine🌟 🎶🔸🎶✨

C'est super! Magnifique!!

Wow, you have a fantastic sound. You look so natural playing the flute, I'd love to hear you play in person. Wonderful performance! :)

Wonderful.😭

straordinario!!!

Excelente Sebastian!!!!!!!

C´est trés trés bien!!! Félicitation :))

Very impressive performance. Surprisingly, the wooden flute is very powerful. Would you mind to tell us its brand and model of the wooden flute?

Bravo, Sebastian! Claudio

ufffff!!!!!!!!!!!!! amazing....

Bravísimo! Qué sonido tan claro y brillante, muchas gracias por escucharte! A propo, no será Gustavo Dudamel el director de la orquesta?

Nobody plays on all wooden instruments anymore, and it's so sad. I was at the conservatory when Mr. Zoon was with Boston Symphony, and since he's left there is very little interest in producing wooden instruments. I would be interested in knowing how you felt about the new Braun wooden flutes, and also wondering if you knew if Haynes is still/could still be comissioned to produce another flute like yours. Also, just for clarification sake, your entire flute is of cocus, or just the head? Ciao

Fantástico.

Waaaaw PERFECT !!!

What brand of flute is it in the video? I want a wooden flute so badly. I love my DiZhao, so I might try their wood flute and see if I like it too.

Excelent....also give the credits to the conductor: Mr. Domingo Garcia Hindoyan....Venezuelan talent musician...muy bien¡¡

Huge fan here. Could you also upload the 2nd movement? Thanks!

Your performance is beautiful. Where can I find your performance schedule online?

@MrSbas1208 Do you know if Mr. Zoon sells his headjoints and where? you sound very powerful on it!

Exceleent!

What type of flute?

Amazing!! Are you a friend of Rui Maia?

What flute this is ?

you r handsome and i lovd your sound

top!

I play a buffet wooden clarinet in my SCHOOL band

I am being seduced by the pied piper!!! that is one HOT flautist!!!!

He's my crush but he doesn't have any account for me to stalk

We excuse the camerman, but obviously you didn't.

To what do you attribute the flat playing in the low register?
