Le flutiste Emmanuel Pahud - Entre Bach & Jazz - part 1

Between Bach and Jazz The first time I heard a flute’s sound, I was 4 years old it was 1974, and we moved to Rome the neighbors upstairs were musicians, and one of their childs played flute, he repeated all time the G-major Mozart’s flute concerto somehow he became my teacher! I was so fascinated by the lightness and tone-color of this instrument, and also by elegance, brightness and expressiveness, that I asked my parents for a flute and I had it for Christmas... but in those days I wasn’t able to get a sound from it...
