Eva Kingma and the quarter-tone flute

A small film about the trip I made from Portugal to the Netherlands to meet Eva Kingma at her workshop in Grolloo (north of Netherland) . Her quarter-tone system for the flute is a brilliant addition to the flute mechanics and opens an entire new world of possibilities!

did you buy one? if so, Brannen or Sankyo?

[mcochofel]

@flutejory the flute I'm playing in the video is a brannen-kingma. the sankyo was

also very very good, but with some different solutions in the keys. i preferred the brannen due to my small hands, but the sankyo was also a terrific instrument.

I love listening to Eva Kingma's voice. It reminds me so much of my recorder and baroque flute teacher from Indiana University, Eva Legene.
