Welcome FotF, and that's an intriguing flute you have. Cheers, jasonFlutesoftheforest wrote:My first post as a new member so I hope you don't mind me getting involved.
I currently play on a Rudall Carte cylinder flute "Old System". Originally built in 1887 it was rebuilt by Rudall Carte and Co. Ltd. to modern pitch in 1930 and is an absolute treasure !
