A YouTube Playlist of clips by/featuring Jean-Michel Veillon. Not exhaustive (yet) and not all are very good quality.....

I just tripped onto this one. What a hoot. Sorry if it's been posted before. It's the first time I've seen it.

Nice video!

Here's something different; a breton tune "le coup de fusil".
Arranged by breton flute player Anna Roussel, since a few years living in Sweden.
She playing with myself and saxophone player Jonas Knutsson

Really like the camera work... must be a pain trying to play with a camera that close to the face

[LorenzoFlute]

Woah! A single flute (Sean Gavin) clearly audible between lots of fiddles, two accordion and a concertina! Great stuff:

What flute does he play?

[Lars Larry Mór Mott]

The maker is anyone's guess but it look like a Pratten/copy, and they usually make themselves heard pretty good

[LorenzoFlute]

Where do you see that it's a Pratten style flute? It's not easy to see it but the body is in two pieces. 8 keys. It could be a Grinter...

As far as i can see it's a one piece body.. can't detect a joint betwen bottom and top three holes, which led me to believe in a Pratten design. On the other hand, that's not a carved in stone thing either since Rob Forbes makes a Pratten with 2-piece body and Copley makes one piece bodies on demand.. Oh well, it's pretty loud and well sounding in any case!

[NicoMoreno]

It's a Grinter, a Rudall style flute. It's got a two piece body, and you can see it if you're looking for it. The volume seems about right, the flute isn't really all that much louder, it's just getting picked up better by the camera.
