    FYI Patrick Olwell is generally regarded as the best Irish flute maker - Matt Molloy , June McCormack, Tom Doorley, Seamus Eagan, and most other professional Irish musicians play his flutes. In comparison, his keyless flutes are only $1500.00, although the waiting list is about a year. It’s worth it.

    They do sound good, and there is so much joy to be had as an Irish flute player. So please dig deeper into that joy, but i really do think that price of 2500$ is asking a bit much, I have a Gilles Lehart, mopane flute, with copper rings and 6 keys, brand new, made for me, from France, for 2000$ even (including shipping), and it sounds professional as well. My suggestion would be to start with a Mcneela, rosewood, keyless flute for about 275$. I was so pleased with the way I sounded on that flute that I got addicted to it, after that, move onto professional quality flutes of your choosing. Maybe because this person made 20,000$ flutes, he thinks that 2500$ is acceptable? But in traditional irish music, a keyless flute for that price seems pretty unacceptable.

    You should try baroque flutes Joanna!!! And if not, the recorder. It’s a legit instrument.

    You don't tongue in Irish music, you use glottal stops and you very rarely if ever go into the third octave. The tone you look for is a hard reedy tone, definitely not a sweet one.

    Traditional Irish Flute playing does not really focus on a lot of tonguing. It's all about fingerwork and a lot of tunes are flat-out slurred.

    Yay! I’ve been waiting to see your thoughts on some wooden flutes. To anyone who is really interested now but is daunted by the price: my own Irish flute is a keyless apple wood Sweetheart (now the brand Musique Morneaux), which I bought secondhand for $250. If you don’t want to make a huge investment but want to try one of these lovely flutes, the options are out there!

    Joanna tries Irish flutes? More like Joanna having the time of her life for sixteen minutes straight.

    Its a strange thing - but the irish flute is played in a different way than the classical flute. You blow here like a classical flautist - an Irish trad player, would blow more down into the hole, focus the air a bit more, and maybe cover the blowhole more with the lower lip - this gives a quite distinct difference in tone - a more buzzing sound, more bark! :)

    LOL...reaction, priceless. Your fingers will stretch. Windward flutes are good. Be careful swabbing inside of your keyed flute, oil can gum up the keys and then you have to get pads replaced 😒. I was a bit surprised at the price, is that Canadian? My Olwell was about 1650. My Irish flutes are made from African blackwood/grenadilla, and cocus. In Irish music a big bore flute made from Blackwood is generally preferred bc you need a big reedy sound to play with other loud instruments.

    Lots of Celtic flute players in Seattle. Casey Burns is a respected maker in your city! And Peter Noy is somewhere near you with gorgeous Irish and Baroque flutes.

    YEEESSSS!!!!! THIS is what I wanted to see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BTW, the bottom hand fingering becomes much easier when you use something called a "piper grip" where you cover the holes with the middle joint of the bottom fingers instead of the tip. Much, much much easier on your hands. I've got big old piano paws, and I couldn't play a simple system flute without it. Now, we just have to get you one with keys!!!!!!
