Borne "Carmen Fantasy" - Mimi Stillman, flute + Charles Abramovic, piano 

holy crap, didnt realize flute was such a instrument of emotion. im now a fan.

Absolutely stunning! Your tone is so sweet and pure 🧡

wow....what a giant flutist...She had excellent technic and feelings. Superb.

Dear Mimi, You make the flute sound too easy ;-) Excellent virtuosity.

I watched it yesterday, I watched it today and I am going to watch it tomorrow too. Fantastic performance - and I don't mean just the music. I started playing the flute less than a year ago (at the age of 31) and it is essentially my first instrument. And, unlike many children, I had a complete freedom of choice of instrument - and chose the flute. I wish I could say it was you who inspired me to play the flute, but I didn't know you then. However, it's great to be reminded why the flute is so amazing. Thanks for this video.

That is the funnest Carmen I have ever heard. Your creativity and musicality are truly inspiring.

Woahhh this is good! I love hearing flutists that are the REAL DEAL. Gj mimi u have a new fan from texas :)

Incredible!!!!! Memorized....that's a lot of music!!! wow....Her emotion and flawless technique... Gorgeous sound... She's got it all!!!!

Great, great, great by all means! I've just discovered you right now, and I'm speachless...

I was already interested in trying to learn the flute, but now I know I 100% HAVE to learn this instrument it's so beautiful ♥

What incredible control you have on this piece Mimi; one of the most spectacular performances. You make it look so easy.

A most excellent perfomance. I really love the part when she utilizes the fan to cool herself and the pianist off. Turly a magical moment to remember !!! 😘😘😘

Bravo! Not only Great performance but also Great interpretation.

Expressive and various like a Bizet’s Carmen. Iconic interpretation, unique performance, that’s work of art, congratulations and thank you.

Oh my god you give this piece so much enthusiasm, I love it. I’m such a fan!!

You and Charles are such a great collaboration unit. There were great musical moments happening from both of you and he was so receptive to what you were doing. One of my favorite performances.

great tone. and great moments. you perform very well..

Beautiful interpretation! Perfectly flirtatious and spot-on in execution. Thanks!

I am just beginning to seriously study flute and this performance is very inspiring. Thank you!

Lots of fun!! Wonderful mastery, both technical and artistic, and you "became" Carmen as well. Excellent work on the accompanist's part as well. You both complement each other really well.

Love the way you tell the story. Thanks for new recording and for the great performance.

Bravo👏👏👏

Breathtaking! Amazing!

A true master at work. Well done!

Bravo!!!excellent

Didn't know flute can be so amazing - until this moment. As a musician and multiinstrumentalist (yes I got a flute too, but my level is at ten percent of yours) I can only say I'm very impressed. And I know very well what it means to play this way, looking at the years you had to have practiced. Was a great pleasure to listen and watch! You are very charming and a great artist! Wonderful performance! Kind regards from Berlin from a lover of music and women

Mimi!!! You Killied it!!! 💪🏆🏅

Superbe! Bravo!

Very very Nice

I’m so glad I’ve come across you on RU-vid. I’ve listened to many flautists. You are amazing!!!!

Mimi--I heard you play the first time at the NFA Convention in Boston (1994?). You played the Mozart in G as a part of Julius Baker's demonstration of the Yamaha Disklavier. As one of the photographers for that convention, I captured it and it was published in the Flutist's Quarterly. You were amazing then (as a pre-teen) and you are freakin' awesome now! Wish I still had the print of that pic!

Incredible flutist!

Ou very beatiful.Very clear sound.You play very good😍🎶

Bravíssimo!!!!!

A mulher toca muito!👏👏👏👏👏👏

All I can say is "Wow!"

Desde o Brasil, minhas congratulações. Você além de lindíssima, charmosa e encantadora, toca este instrumento de maneira magnífica, escolhe as peças mais inspiradoras.. Eu não tenho palavras no português para expressar o quanto vc me impressionou.... Ah.. Parabéns também ao pianista.
