Welcome Tchie!

thanks for posting the photo of your flute. I'm sure there will be a lot of questions about the maker! What is your experience?

Bumping, only because I don't want to let GCollins off so easily.

Bflat Olwell? Hmm?

Thanks Domino,
It`s sounds great too. I bought this flute from Sam Murray in 1997 and my worst fear was that the flute would crack in the swedish dry weather with central heating and all... But lucky me no cracks what so ever...touch wood...

It was a bit of a search Arbo, but well worth it. That is a mighty fine looking flute (and excellent photo's too).

I posted this on the emergency board last week, but here is where it belongs: the Flute lichen thread

First attempts at capturing my new 6-keyed Cotter flute:

Hey all,

Here's the address to view my R&R:

http://home.earthlink.net/~migoya/id8__4117.htm.

It's an 8-keyed, cocus wood flute circa 1840. I recently had some work done on it , and after a period of 4 or 5 weeks of breaking it in, I am happy to report that it is paying wonderfully. It's not a particularly loud flute, but its got an awesome tone, one that sends the soul back in time. The thing that I really like about it, is that it seems to get better week by week.

Sorry about the period after the address. Old habits are hard to break....

Seeing the similarities in the headjoint on Ojvoj's Murray encouraged me to stick this link in for anyone who is interested. This is my Clementi & Co, C Nicholson's Improved - made by Thomas Prowse. It was refurbished and given a new headjoint by Chris Wilkes prior to my owning it. The Long F nat key has been removed and the hole, as well as the location of the block mount, very well concealed.

Hi Folks,
I saw this flute today at a Folk Museum, it was listed as a 1 keyed concert flute by John Dollard, Essex Quay, Dublin c 1825, in Boxwood and Ivory. Does anyone know more about this maker. Sorry about the picture quality.

Cheers, Mac
