Dropped you a PM.

The eight-keyed Satiné flute also visible in his gallery should be my new flute. :) Piffle on you too. Satine 8 key I believe is what I'm going to get, assuming I can handle the finger holes. (It's less than a Pratten, so I should be able to, but we'll see). ::ahem:: JUST WAITING ON TOMMY...::ahem:...

Good price that.

Correct - just adding keywork to an extant instrument. I just saw the pics on Maurice's site. Gorgeous flute! I love the cabachon that you had put on the end piece. Hopefully it will get there in time. I've considered putting some accents on the M&E I play out at Ren Faires, got a nice price on...

Bump for the price change since the edit didn't.

Oh, thanks! I didn't know that.

No clue on the tune ID, huh?

The black-on-black keywork is very cool. I never wuold have thought of that but I really like it. Verr naace! So, you don't have it yet? Doc Ah, no. She sitteth in U.S. Customs. She probably won't make it here by my Saturday gig; sigh. Yeah, but could you play it "in" in time to play it f...

http://www.thesession.org/tunes/display/1815 The Coolin, or An Cuilfhoinn is the one flatley plays as a solo. (Or at least his adaptation of it...) I'd be interested if anyone knows the tunes that he and Molloy played as a duet on the late late show (There's a clip of it on the Flatley "Gold&qu...

John

Way late, but I'd like to be added to the bottom of the list, if possible.

Thanks!

John

I don't know if it'll have value in the long run, but I've found it surprising that sometimes what sounds SO VERY DIFFERENT while playing is barely discernible on playback.<sigh> Why is this?!! I did the same thing recently, playing as sweetly as I could then as hard and raspy, sounded OK when play...

I’ve been playing the flute for about twenty years now. It’s only in the past few years that my embouchure has given me the clear, ringing tone that I want, and only because I’ve been able to play every day. See, now this is the absolute key piece of advice here, no matter what anyone else may writ...

Tommy-

Dropped you a note via email, if you didn't get it, check your spam filter. It's coming from a gmail account.

Casey-

When I get the loaner flute, I'll give you my (albeit newish) opinion after I've played it a bit as well. His flutes look stupendous, can't wait to try it out.
