Anonymous asked: how does one pronounce tadeu coelho?

Ta-DAY-o Co-WAY-lee-oh

Idk i’m really bad at spelling phonetically but that’s what it sounds like, with a really subtle “lee.”

I do! he’s amazing, and one of mine too :p

~~I worship Marina Piccinini most of all~~

Anonymous asked: I saw your post about the James Galway masterclass, that's awesome!!!! Where do you go to school?

It was really cool!! :)
I got to school at UNCSA, University of North Carolina School of the Arts

90% of the class for Aural Skills dictations

When James Galway freaking drops a microphone onto one of his flutes and the whole studio collectively gasps

Really though, 3 gold flutes, a Nagahara, Haynes, and Muramatsu. He’ll just have them out and randomly switch between them.

I was going to ask you guys to guess which one I am in the picture but I’m one of the ones mostly hidden in the back so, nevermind :p

Edit: here’s a slightly better one!!

Anyway it was a really great class!

Edit2: and Galway told Dr. Coelho we have a “Strong Studio” Woo!!
UNCSA Flute Studio has the Galway seal of approval :p :D
