Hi, folks. :) I apologize if my post is not this section of Forum. I have not written here for a long time. Let me remind you that I live in Belarus and play the flute and whistles. My very good friend has the opportunity to study ITM in Ireland, but for this she has no money. We try to do everythin...

Good record and good playing! Thank you!

Ahhh! So Beautiful Flute!! ))
Thanx for pics, Brazenkaine!

I shall always remember this great man, when playing on Overtons...
RIP

I have keyless Hamilton, and absolutely I love it! In the summer I was in Ireland at competitions, not the participant, and simply the student, certainly :) I have heard a lot of good players and flutes then. On branch " slow air - flute " one girl played on Hamilton 6-keys. It was the bes...

Thanks guys for your answers and reasonings! :) Has passed some time during which I played on this flute much. I played much, yes. I even have bought to myself a portable tuner always to have it with myself though I expect dissatisfied smiles of those who speaks, that the tuner not must to be used f...

Yes, more likely it not a problem, and feature of Hamilton flutes. It is necessary to get used simply to them and to play definitely. I frequently now listen to a disk received from Hammy, and I understand, how this flute can perfectly sound

Kevin, I do not think, that the stopper could be shifted at transportation - the flute was carried by the person, accurately :) kayaal and cocusflute speak the truth - when I blow strongly and powerfully, the flute comes back in a melody practically completely. If a stream of air is not enough stron...

Thank you Jim. Yes, I think, that Hamilton is based on Pratten style. I read, that these flutes had problems with tuning for some notes. My flute plays very precisely in a melody with me, except for only one note. If to get used to rolling a flute on F#, it can is valid to become a habit from which ...

Hi folks :) Recently I have received Hamilton keyless and is admired with this flute! That sound what I wanted to hear from a flute - strong, complex, with character. Tuning also is very good, the low and high octaves correspond completely, except for one note - low F#. This note is appreciablly low...

I have Overton Low D from Colin Goldie. It is the perfect instrument, a sound which you will not find more anywhere. Exact build, fast and nimble, I play on it the same fast tunes, as on high whistles. On slow tunes, when I play accompanied by a guitar or bouzoki it forces the some people (girls) to...

I wish you the prompt restoration! Take care!

Here - benevolent people, and will answer you, even if you write simply empty place ))
