Just to clarify, Joey on right—Torrin on left. And, agree, the concerts were wonderful.ytliek wrote:Joey Abarta (on left) and Torrin Riáin rocking the pipes both ways in Litchfield county....

Chris gray's chanter head looks interesting. I wonder if you could somehow introduce some smoke into the system just to see how the air travels into the reed .

- Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

Understandable confusion. If it wasn't for Joey's tie, it's difficult to tell them apart.
Best wishes.

I confused myself thinking right-handed and left-handed rocking the pipes and maybe not thinking at all while engulfed in the rapture of the moment. Yes, the tie always works for me.Steve Bliven wrote:Understandable confusion. If it wasn't for Joey's tie, it's difficult to tell them apart.
