How Low Can You Go?

This fun and informative workshop explores the flute family from top to bottom, focusing on the lower flutes. After briefly introducing and demonstrating the piccolo, Eb soprano flute, concert flute, Bb flute d’amour, alto flute and bass flute, Paige then describes and demonstrates her “heavy metal” in detail. Her Kotato contrabass flute was the first here in the United States. Her newest addition is the Kingma sub contrabass flute in G, one of three in the world. For most workshops in the eastern part of the United States, Paige can also bring her Kotato double contrabass flute, one of four in the world.
