Re: breaking in new Lesouef flute
Hi Stephen, I am the happy owner of a Lesouef keyless flute in Mopane (July 2020) and keyed blackwood (July 2022). These were my first brand new flutes in a long time, so I had almost forgot about the amount of oiling new flutes need... Solen shared her document for flute care when I got the mopane ...

Re: Tips for a solid low D on Lesouëf flute.
I too own a mopane D flute by Solen Lesouef. I understand she made some design changes just before I received mine in July 2020, but what I experience and heard from other Lesouef players is that her flutes are made to play best with a more downward directed airstream. This can be accomplished by tu...

Re: Hammy Hamilton tunes on ITMA
Very cool! Thank you for sharing.
The last in-person (pre Covid) session I attended in Copenhagen (Feb 2020) Hammy was there and played some of his tunes.
Sessions are starting up again here so I should be getting out there.

Re: new flute or old
By all your criteria picking up a used 8-key like the Morvan is the way to go. I have had 2 keyless flutes on order. Waited a year and received both around the same time. There is great joy in the feel, smell and process of playing in a brand new wooden flute for sure. I am now also reminded how lab...

Re: Chris Wilkes 4 key flute for sale
Looking at Sweden based flute maker Tim Adam's flutes https://www.adams.se/flutemaker/ it looks like he made this type of modification part of his design. Not sure if this is the same or opposite, but when I received my Solen Lesouef flute last year I had a really hard time playing the bottom D in t...

Re: Somers Flute?
also Francois Baubet (IRL) makes an excellent delrin flute that could match your checklist.
Played one for many years myself!
