Sounds like this flute is comparable to the Jupiter Prodigy. I've never heard of the DiZhao brand but it sounds great!

[katieblocki]

Yes, it is comparable to the Jupiter, but retails for $375 instead of $775, and plays so easily. The c# is excellent!

[bluefig]

just wondering if this student will use a curved headjoint flute as the regular flute is so big for her.

[katieblocki]

Yes, she is using the new mini-di curved c flute made by DiZhao. I tried it at the NFA in New York City...it was the first made. It plays beautifully and is smaller than the regular C flute. (No foot joint) and nice key extensions so the fingers do not need to stretch to reach the keys. I was so excited about this new flute....I am now a dealer. Let me know if you would like more information.

This is very nice work on both parts.

What I like also is the enthusiasm.

Katelyn's enjoyment is marvelous. ;-).
