I finally got time to play the new flute and wow, it plays great! It's easier to do harmonics or what in trumpet we call "lip slurs" and I dunno what the flutists call it yet.
Now I have to wonder what to do with the old one ... I'll probably stick it on Craig's List. I have a feeling it has enough problems that it's not worth fixing.
The trouble these days is finding the time to practice every day. But I have to be ready to busk all I can this Xmas season...
I just have one trumpet left out of the 2 trumpets and 2 cornets I had for sale, and the trumpet is bound to go soonish because it's by a noted maker. In fact if I could figure out why it buzzes, I'd consider just keeping it for a while. If the buzz is due to a loose brace, I'd be tempted to just fix it since I've got a torch and some silver solder around here.
