  • what he says about Nina Perlova, that pathetic woman?

  • @hrissan Most American orchestras play at 442. British orchestras usually play at 440. Some orchestras get as high as 445Hz (such as the Berlin Phil). The 'standard' is not necessarily a rule.

  • I have a gemeinhardt. I should have gotten this brand instead :(

  • @sonofsueraf i was at a masterclass of his a few weeks ago and I asked him if he played anything else, and he said he does play bassoon

  • This flute sounds pretty good in J G's hands , if perhaps a bit reedy, ...and seems good value for money ...however ..always try the flute yourself along with your teacher ..hopefully a good one. James would sound good on a tar barrell!!

  • does the open hole flute have plugs on it? Pls. Reply... THANKS!!!

  • hi sir, is that bassoon yours? just asking... pls. reply, thanks...

  • I checked Galway Spirit official site and found that it  has cooper scale with A=442. Why 442 if the international standard A=440?

  • Gosh ! Even Galway couldn't get a SELMER to sound good. Give me a Muramatsu any day of the week.

  • Pearl flute
