News about the Hamilton flute: It has been back to Ireland, and has returned as a 6-key.
I had some difficulty with reaching the long-F key, so Hammy Hamilton make a second key with a longer touch. This didn't cost any extra and did not require returning the flute to Ireland. [The Contradiction] (reel, MP3) [The Earl's Chair] (reel, MP3) [Jim Ward's] (jig, MP3) [Easter Snow] (air, MP3) [Miss Lyon's Fancy] (reel, MP3) [You Never Saw Her Equal] (reel, MP3) Hammy Hamilton, of Cuil Aodha, Ireland, makes some of the finest (some say the finest) wooden flutes available today. This flute is superb in every way, with a rich, singing, ringing tone, and excellent responsiveness and control over its entire range. It plays easily well into the 3rd octave. A keyed body is being made for this flute but is not yet ready. I drool with anticipation of the finest flute I have ever played becoming yet better. New content is coming.
