Flutes

Brian’s many flutes include:

Weymann Db Piccolo

G. Rudolf Uebel C Piccolo;  This is a great instrument made in 1967 in East Germany.  G. Rudolf Uebel seems to have enjoyed thinking outside the box using non-traditional materials and designs for his instruments.  This piccolo’s body is made from a block of aluminum.

Artley Eb Soprano Flute; This little flute is used primarily in flute choirs.

A.H. Langlois Db Flute; This is a Boehm system flute made from ebonite (a type of hard rubber) around 1910 in England.
