Yet another Swedish tune, a wedding march: "Brudmarsch från Klövsjö", played on an MK low D.

A Swedish folk tune, "Visa från Rättvik"

Lovely piece! And thanks for the ABC, I look forward to giving it a try. Hope you and your daughter will be ok.

Merry Christmas!

The exo-fipple approach works, I made one yesterday. Doesn't sound too good, but that could be the player rather than the fipple...

Like these?

I think that looks like DIY project. You probably could modify the whistle exo-fipple to be side-blown. I'll give it a try, but I'm afraid that won't help you much, I live in Sweden

I recorded a traditional Norwegian wedding march, Brurmarsj fra Sørfold, on a Swedish Åspipa G whistle. Sort of Motown style, with vice on voice

I've ordered from Thomann twice, and had no problem. But I suppose their low prices come from being logistics experts rather than experts on the stuff they sell.

Just a few thoughts: About the name, I think you have a point in choosing one that explains your business idea of making flutes from PVC tubes. The PVC bit is a bit scary though, so perhaps simply "plastic" would work? A bit of retro ring in that as well. Further, you might want to explain...

Yeah. That might be a record, even for BA.

My daughter, flying BA home from Johannesburg, arrived home four months ahead of her luggage...

I made some exo-fipples, obviously, as I made them up :D Lately I've been gettin' spoiled however, so I mostly play my beautiful, craftsman-made wooden whistles, low E, G, "blue" A, and high E. However, glueing the tube isn't necessary. Adhesive tape works well, as shown in my vid: http://...

Some thoughts: if I were a prospective buyer I would like to see more detail about each separate kind of flute. Sound samples, pictures and videos would be a strong selling point. YouTube videos might also lead prospective customers to the site. I would also look for details on shipping and payment....

Another video, not in a cave, but in a very cave-like place. This time the reverb really is huge.

I made a video of me playing ocarina in a cave with great acoustics, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58jfBg6FnW0
