Yes, definitely a flautist - I've been playing since I was about 10. That looks like a nice beginning flute at a good price.
My first one was a Bundy
I don't think Ted makes flutes anymore.

You're welcome. Good luck to the kid (daughter?) and hope they stick with it. Make sure they clean it regularly, especially clearing out the moisture inside after every time they play it. It only takes a few seconds but will keep the flute in tip-top shape. And also get a soft, lint-free cloth to clean the exterior of finger prints and the like.Thanks!

Oh, tell me about it. My brother played the trumpet and...well...I played brass instruments, so I know the drill on maintaining an instrument. If you think a dirty flute is nasty, you should see a tuba after leaving spit in it for a few weeks.
Oh, just WAIT until she tries to hit a high C.I'm pretty sure she'll stick with it. I'm just happy she didn't choose the clarinet. Nothing hurts more than that beginners clarinet squeak.
Honestly, I wouldn't start her out on an instrument like that. Get her a cheap one and let her learn on that instead of potentially destroying a valuable all-silver one.Bug has been asking to learn how to play. I told her to ask GC if she could borrow hers to use. GC said to write a letter to GreatGrandFather, because it is his and he has it (it is all silver I believe).
I don't think your nerves could take it.Honestly, I don't know where she will find the time (nor myself) between school, dance and GS.

Exactly. I started on a buck-fifty recorder before I ever got close to a real flute.She learned some sort of reed instrument last year and I do not relish the thought of losing a silver family heirloom.
I know you too well.As for my nerves, you are right on target.

More my style...and I've seen them both in concert.
No - I think you're thinking of yourself.Maybe You're "Living in The Past"
