I've never played fife before but the price was so low that I figured it couldn't hurt to try it.
The embouchure is a bit tighter than for flute but it isn't too bad. I can get into the third octave without too much difficulty but getting to the top of the third is tough, need more practice I think.
I need to find some fife specific pieces. Right now I am just messing around with stuff I know on flute but it still sounds pretty good to me.
If anyone has any free fife music resources that can point me at I'd appreciate it.
Thanks
