Pratten flute can be made of blackwood, ebony, kingwood, boxwood or any other exotic wood, but this time I would like to show how BAMBOO can give a beautiful strong voice for the Irish Wooden Flute in the hand of an expert player.

- Tell us something.: I'm interested in 19th and early 20th century wooden flutes. And Renaissance flutes. And also techniques for whistles.

Beautiful 
'...I want to warn you that playing the flute is impossible for those who have no tongue, for all notes must be led by the tongue; therefore, those of you who take pleasure in playing the flute should guard your tongue against mould, which is to say, drink often.'
