I'm sure it was an enjoyable instrument to play. However, I'm thinking
of a wooden Boehm flute, not a simple system flute or other flute of any
sort. (There are so many worldwide, in the different musics of the
world, I would be amiss to even guess which music culture yours was
from) At any rate, I've seen some wooden Boehm flutes advertised, and
I've become curious...however, since this is the klarinet list, I don't
want to be hunted down, and pelted with bad reeds! ;-)
