Flutes
Brian’s many flutes include:
Weymann Db Piccolo
Guo “New Voice” C Piccolo; Guo’s “New Voice” series of flutes is made from a composite material that is less susceptible to temperature changes which make it a great instrument for pit work. It also has several great features like a split “E” key and a high G# mechanism.
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.
Jupiter DiMedici C Flute; Brian’s main flute. This is model 1011 with engraved keys and lip plate. Brian also uses an Executer headjoint by Guo.

Emerson Alto Flute
Hogenhuis Contrabass Flute; This flute was made by the Dutch low flute maker, Jelle Hogenhuis. He makes the bodies of his low flutes out of PVC plastic.
Anonymous 8-Key C Flute; This wooden flute was made in Germany in the latter half of the 1800′s.
