This is truly an exceptional video! "Tico-Tico" is one of my favorite songs, and when I heard someone play it on the flute, I was shocked! That person is absolutely talented and has an amazing ability to play the flute. As a teenager, I really admire such musical skills. Additionally, the video is well edited, the visuals are beautiful and match the melody. Overall, it makes me want to learn to play the flute myself so I can play as beautifully as that person. I recommend everyone to listen to this piece and see how beautifully one can play the flute!
