This entire scene is fiction.

This is Raphaël Froissart's YouTube channel. He's the one responsible for the title:

He asks for the most difficult piece ever and SHOCKS everyone with his pan flute...🤯

Now, why are these people "shocked"? After all, Michel Tirabosco is a world-class player.

The answer is because the the video is intentionally set up to mislead people. Michel says to Raphaël:

"Can I play with you? I have my flute."

This is - at best - intended to mislead, to give the impression that he just happened to meet Raphael. Michel then says:

Vivaldi? Winter, you know?

He's trying to give the impression that he's selected "Winter" at random. And he's pretending that he's not Raphael knows the piece.

That's rubbish, because we know that they've already recorded it..

When the "mob of musicians" comes along, Raphael acts as if this is unexpected - even as if he doesn't even know who they are.

At 0:52, Michel saws "Wow", as if he's surprised by all these people who have suddenly appeared.

By this time, it's straining credulity that anyone would believe this wasn't fake.

But that's not the point. If they simply wanted to give the impression of a live performance, that's one thing.

That's not what they're doing here. They're intentionally misleading people - and that's what I object to.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
