Re: Am I any good?

Articulation refers to the tonguing or slurring. If someone were to soften their articulation they would need to use more of a "du" or "lu" sullable rather than a hard "tu."

Re: flute cleaning advice

I have noticed my mechanism is so noisy lately and I know my pads are in terrible shape. Maybe it's because they are so neglected. I feel so dumb for not having this knowledge!

What do you recommend I use for sticky pads until I get the COA?

Thank you!

Re: flute cleaning advice

Thank you so much. I really appreciate you taking the time to type out such a detailed reply! I will definitely make that a priority soon. I'm in an orchestra whose season is over in April, so I will aim for that time frame. In the meantime I will polish away with my trusty little cloth!

flute cleaning advice

Hi everyone! I'm new here...totally thrilled to have found a flute message board!! I've had a Muramatsu GX since 2001 and have always just cleaned it with the cleaning cloth that came with it..but I feel it needs something more. Are there any products on the market that are made for cleaning profess...
