New flute... and I know nothing about it. [PIC HEAVY]
This came in the mail yesterday, from Ebay, where its old owner knew very little about it. https://youtu.be/PEHabsBho1s Showed it to a friend at a session last night who said it was likely from 1870s/1880s Germany and also kindly helped me bind up the crack in the head joint. When I unpacked it, I b...

Re: Concealed/Open Carry Options (For Eb Sessions)
(I'm in the US)! Such could likely be deduced from your subject line (which nearly caused Mountain Dew to go through my nose). I sometimes forget that this isn't a "thing" in most of the rest of the "developed" world. Gosh, what's the right word for that? If "Developing Nat...

ITM mugs, shirts, etc to raise money for my new flute...
Get a product with your favorite tune and help me get a new flute... think of it as a public service; not only will you have a great item, but you'll also be saving all the folks that have to sit next to my silver flute at sessions! :-D People will thank you. Let me know what tunes (or instruments) ...

Re: Suddenly in the market for a flute by Christmas...
Sapwood in African Blackwood can sometimes look stunning. And is fine structurally etc. Indeed, if this was a flute, I would be throwing money at it first an asking you all questions about it later. http://www.huntertippers.com/tipper%20photos/185e.jpg Alas, it is a tipper, and hasn't much to do wi...

Re: Beware of cheap ebay flutes!
I really wonder if he's so naive as to assume that the noise this device emits is an exotic Indian scale? Hindustani and Carnatic musicians alike would split their sides laughing! LOVE IT. Ha! Maybe it's just that they were all made to be in tune with my church's organ. So what does tend to be the ...

Re: WTB Copley Delrin
Buy one from the maker. Good fellow to do business with. I second this. Met him in the Catskills and he let me spend a lot of time with a variety of his flutes, even borrowing them overnight to spend some time with while in the Catskills. I was still casually shopping which he knew but he was still...

Re: Question about open hole Boehm flutes
I usually play my silver flute, especially if I'm needing to keep up at a session, but also spend nearly as much time with my low and high whistles, my olwell bamboo flute, and some other keyless flute things as well. My own Boehm flutes do not have holes in their keys, but I've occasionally borrowe...

A blessing and a curse!

So I think the budget is probably going to top out ...

Tune in the opening sequence of OAIM videos?
Hi, all. I was wondering if anyone knew what tune is played at the opening of this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVtTPZtqbB0 and most of the others that OAIM has?
It plays for the first fifteen seconds of that video.
Thank you!

Re: Leaking key on Böhm flute (Help!)
I just started having the same problem a few weeks ago. Fortunately, since with ITM I'm usually playing in D and G, it's not a huge deal to not be able to play F nat. I found if I increase the pressure on the left side of the F natural key when playing, it helps close the leaky key next to it.

Recovering Classical Player: embouchure and ornamentation?
Hi, all. I have played a silver flute, mostly classical, since I was 7 or so. I began with the Suzuki method and did all the "usual" things, like school band and church accompaniment, until college where I joined the the college's Celtic Ensemble, led by an excellent Scottish fiddler. A lo...
