I can't remember if I said this already, but I've started playing some music again! I haven't played much of anything since marching band ended... so about three years
( Read more... )
Oh funny, when I was home in August I dug my flute out of my storage boxes and played for the first time in yeeeeeaars. I was shocked: I was able to play and read music and was way better off than I'd have guessed. (To be clear: I wasn't sure if I'd remember ANYTHING, so my bar was pretty low.) I also thought maybe the key pads would have fallen out or something, but it was play-able. In need of repair, but not a disaster.
You and your bf can do duets! Very cool that you can also do flute/guitar combos... I was joking about something like that with my mom (who was trying to get me to bring my flute back to DC) because Matt just got a guitar for his birthday.
How much is a flute described as "the most economical"? I have this vague idea of mine being in the $600 range (back in the 1990s) but I could be wrong. It has a silver headjoint and open holes.
Doing flute/guitar duos together seems most likely to happen. His BA is in classical guitar. He played flute for a year in high school because if he joined the marching band he could hang out with his friends more.
So "most economical" is relative. The flute I have now is an intermediate level Gemeainhardt, very similar to yours--silver headjoint and open holes. I bought it used in the late 90s for about $300. The one that I want is a Muramatsu, which is one of the top of the line flute makers. Their "economical" model, or similar ones from Miyazawa or Yamaha, will set you back about $3500.
