Music example: Sylphyo in a cave
-
An example of using the Sylphyo.
The piece linked below is part of a music project that aims to describe a journey through Hang Son Doong, the largest cave in the world. A Sylphyo is used in this part.
Initially you will hear the end of a "jungle path" leading to the cave entrance. Then we go down a water-bearing slope into the depths of the cave, while two embedded Sylphyos help support the rather scary situation. Then an underground river is crossed and in the following, quieter room, the Sylphyo becomes the main instrument. The music of this excerpt ends before we enter the next room of the cave.
I'm not the best flute player, but here the music thrives on the composition and mood, not on individual instrumental performances. In my opinion, the Sylphyo fits well into this environment and you can clearly hear how sensitive the breath controller is. That's why I love the Sylphyo.

Ah, maybe because of security restrictions. It’s HTTP, not HTTPS.
