Flautist vs. Butterfly
Flautist Youkie Ota thought she was going to nail Pierre Sancan's minimalist arrangement for flute and piano at the Carl Nielsen International competition in Odense, but hadn't planned on a butterfly swooping in to try and fuck her up! During the sonatina's second movement, it just totally landed on her face right there in the middle of the concert hall. Ota forged on through the Andante Espressivo, though, overcoming the insect in a long and brutal battle of wills, waiting until a quiet moment to fling her foe to one side. Only when the cameras were off did Ota get a chance to give her vanquished enemy a free ride home—on her bootheel.
