Ben Shaffer wrote:Nice website for these VDM Flutes made by Vincenzo DiMauro in Galway Ireland. The prices look pretty good as do the images of his Flutes.
Is anyone playing his regular model or student model. If so which one and what do you think of it?

FS: Cheiftain Gold Bflat SOLD

Chieftain Gold Bflat brass whistle. Excellent condition.

$75.00 plus $10.00 shipping within U.S.

Great whistle just doesn't get used as I spend what little free time I have playing my Copley & Boegli flute.

Re: And on the tenth day, he rose again ....

Terry, thank you for reminding me of Puckoon. I read it 34 years ago and will always remember my favorite line even when dementia grabs hold and I can't remember my own name.
