Re: Tara (Bingham) Diamond recordings
Tara Diamond - mp3's from tape recordings of Tara at a Willie week flute class in the early 90's. There maybe a few that aren't her.

Excessive saliva when playing
I've been re-learning my embouchure after an infection in my jaw which left me with a numbness in my left cheek and left side of my mouth and stopped me playing for several years. It's come back ok, it's slightly different and a bit stronger than before but I seem to be producing more saliva which i...

Re: It's that time of year again
It's just occurred to me that in my carpentry days (I'm now retired) I used a glue for glueing wood flooring to a concrete surface which allowed the flooring to expand and contract. It may work in this situation, metal to wood, the down side is It usually comes in large tubs.

Quick warm up routines
Any suggestions for some quick warm up routines? It usually takes me about !0 - 15 minutes to get up to speed with embouchure and fingers. I'd like to improve this.

Re: Can anyone recommend a flute teacher based in London, UK?
I'd try the Comhaltus groups (east & west London) & Irish Centres in Camden and Hammersmith Siobhan O'Donnell is a good teacher but last I heard she's in West London - I think she goes by her married name which I've forgotten Rita Farrell (pipes /flute) used to teach flute - she's on Faceboo...
