A live rehearsal recording (for sound sample purposes only) intended to demonstrate the tone of this cocuswood Rudall Carte flute Nr 6729 dated 1925, restored by Arthur Haswell. I'm using a thinned grenadilla head joint by Robert Bigio due to ongoing problems with an old crack in the original RC head joint. Pete Churchill plays a late 19th century Bluthner grand piano, performed at the Zero Carbon House, Balsall Heath, UK, September 2022.

Another adventure with my "R.S. Pratten's Perfected" flute by Boosey & Co at 24 Holles Street, London. The serial number 8819 9754 is apparently rather unusual, pointing to a date of around c.1861. For me it plays anywhere from A=456Hz, slowly rising! Pitches of B and A are incredibly high and tone holes large for small fingers!

Joachim Anderson (1847-1909) -  Study Nr 6 "Andante" from 26 Little Caprices, Op 37.

I'm trying to work this new, self-composed tune up to be able to play it at the speed I envisaged when I wrote it. This isn't far off full pace, but is pretty rough around the edges still - not a polished performance. There is another clip at a slower speed, played as a "slow reel" on low Bb flute (same fingering, but sounding a minor 3rd lower): http://snd.sc/YOvqJF.
