David, I can see that you've worked on your chops. You are developing nice technique which is crucial for moving around improvising jazz. We need technique. Good for you!

I don't know what you meant by by ...trying to play/hear "everything!" But I have three things that can help you play with more energy and personality.

First, widen the intervals you play. Notice that the vast majority of your intervals (from note to note) are major and minor seconds. What do those intervals make? SCALES. Listen to your recording. Can you hear the scales going up and down? Consider the great music of the world. It's rarely made of scales. It's composed from well-placed wider intervals. (Think Beethoven's Fifth.)

I recorded myself playing over Out of Nowhere. I made it as a kind of exercise that I'm recommending you do. In the solo, I was creating melodic interest but by purposefully playing various intervals. When you play over the Aebersold track, see what you can create by moving away from scale fragments throughout your solo. Think of the melody of this song. It make use of beautiful intervals.

Next, just like I am suggesting to use a variety of intervals, use a variety of other musical things like dynamics, articulation, and range. Variety creates surprise and delight. And I think it would make playing more fun for you!

Last, as you start to play with more variety and interest, you will start to see musical YOU coming out of your flute. This is where you'll really shine! I included a video of Richie Beirach talking about developing one's musical personality/vocabulary.

I really think you are on your way. Use the tools within MusicSavvy.com to help bring that out of you. That's exactly what I built them for!!!
