Hi Brad,

I’m really enjoying my grand tenor pan flute, and will be playing a wedding with a string quartet this weekend- a wonderful combination!

I’m wondering if you know of any case or protective bag that would fit the instrument? I’d appreciate any advice you have.

Many thanks,

Kristy

Hi Kristy - I use small luggage and put foam rubber on the top and bottom. Take a look at what Shay from Israel did with his flute.. It looks very nice. ... brad

Hello Brad. I got the Grand Tenor pan flute. Flute Excellent! Precise and beautiful work. The sound wonderful. Shipping was great. Thank you very much from the creativity and joy.

Loved the Grand Tenor so much. Gotta have more. So I can practice while traveling. I also share with kids that I meet. So, could you give me the link to purchase a set of pocket pipes? I am also getting one of your Fun Pipes. Too much fun!

Thanks!!! Nancy

Just keeping in touch.

Hello !

About 6 months ago I bought 2 panflutes from you. I just wanted to let you know I really like and enjoy the instruments. They trully have a unique sound, compared to the other ones I have and had over the years.

I do have some posted on you tube, if you get a chance to check them out, I'm always open for any sugestions you may have, as a professional panflutist. It's really hard, the band I've been with, we all had fallen out about 1 year ago, and 6 months ago I decided to just perform by myself, it's really hard to do but with GOD's help I do what I can.

All my videos, are recorded live. Keep in mind I am not a professional panflutist.

Maybe one day I will play like one.

I know ... Practice ... Practice ... Practice ...

Practice makes perfect !

Thank you for everything.

Brad,

The 18-pipe tenor and book arrived today, more or less as you predicted. Actually ahead of what I anticipated. Straight out of the box, I produced sensible tones from even the top octave, (though not, I suppose yet from the highest pipes), and quite close to what I should expect from the lower pipes. I'm in a state of bliss and anticipation. I cannot wait to get home and spend serious time with the pan flute, working from the book and my growing stock of Zampona pieces.

Many thanks!

Charlie Carter

Melinda and Brad,

At home tonight, I was amazed at what I could do. I've no problems at all with the G-scale notes - all 18 of them. However, I haven't quite gotten any sharps or flats yet. I'm only on lesson 2 of the book, but I feel empowered! I'll have a look at the DVD.

Thanks again for the thrill,

Charlie

Hello Melinda & Brad: It was great excitement in our home today - the Pan-flutes arrived! Sharon collected them from the post office and some rather unusual notes have been floating around throughout the day! The Pan-flutes are beautiful, but will take time for the younger boys (and me!) to get the musical sounds going!. Joseph, the 9 year old , seems to be making the most pleasant noises so far and is making some progress! Thanks for the great service. We will be in touch with questions I am sure. Jill

6-2-09 - Switzerland

Yea! The box arrived today! It's in perfect condition and so far no customs! I'm eager to open it and see the wrapped package - though I won't get to see the flute until Garrett gets here in mid- June.

Thank you so much - for your care in packaging, filling in the form and sending.

Best regards to you both,

Anne

Hi Melinda and Brad,

Just to let you know I've all ready received my pan flute. Just gorgeous. What a beautiful instrument. I'll be playing it all night tonight. And yes, Brad, the tone and ease of playing are so much better than the plastic. Of course, I haven't a clue how to hit those high notes. The diameter of those tubes are much smaller than the pvc pipe used in my "street" version. I sure love the tone!

Also, just started listening to your cd--wonderful music and recording. I can't wait to incorporate my harp playing along with the flute with my own compositions.

My thanks to you both, and admiration for your music and instrument building as well, Brad.

Take care,

Hi Brad,

I bought a 18-Tenor pan flute from you about two months ago and I’d just like to say thank you very much for such a beautiful instrument.

I have taken it into the bush near-by when I go camping, and played tunes that I never knew I could. I know of nothing more enjoyable then sitting around a camp fire with some friends and family as they listen to the hypnotising melody created by this instrument.

I was never very musically minded but this instrument now means a lot to me. It has shown me something new in life that I would recommend to anyone!

Thanks again...

We are so looking forward to learning to play them.

One is for my 18 yr old son and the other for 5 of us to learn on.

If we pick it up, we'll be ordering some more.

We are piano and violin students and are looking forward to

Dear Brad and Melinda,

I received the Pan Flute today and its a beauty.

You were so right when you told me that there is no comparison between this

flute and the $30 plastic one that I had before (long gone).

I am a real beginner and I have some troubles in getting a sound out of the

shortest pipes, but I am confident that with the help of your DVD I will

soon improve my skills.

A question about maintenance: Do I have to oil the pan flute once in a while ? Please advise.

And...thank you again for this wonderful instrument.

I will keep you posted with my progress.

Best regards,

Gerardo Pavone

Hello Gerardo, You will never need to oil one of our panflutes, they have already been specially treated in oils and waxes.... so just enjoy! Aloha - Brad

4-24-09 - Indiana, USA

A while ago I ordered your Grand Tenor panflute. I have been so very happy with it, and I am finally starting to get good enough to play in front of others. I am so tempted always to take it outside hiking and such...which I really am hesitant to do with the grand tenor because of its size. So I'd like to order one of your pocket panpipes to take with me outside.

Thanks!

Dana

Hi Dana, the Pocket Pipes are perfect for travel & hiking, only 7 inches and you really can play a lot music on them. I sent you a link to place your order. .. brad

4-14-09 - New Jersey, USA

WOW! YES; Now I understand and yes, you are absolutely right!!!

Now I just have to tell that to my brain and see if it listens to me. :-)

I will try that when I go home this weekend.

But you know what?

This proves to me that, when you say on your website that you will write

back to help your customers, you are not just saying that to get people to

buy from you.

You REALLY DO and very quickly indeed.

THANK YOU Brad,

A VERY HAPPY customer from New Jersey, USA.

Hello Brad,

I received my Pan-Flute, books and the

CD set three days ago. Thank you for the fast service.

I am formaly from Hungary living in the USA for 53years. I graduated from

the "Bela Bartok Musik Konzevatorium"

Budapest, Hungary, with majoring in Flute.

My flute teacher was the world renouned Jeney Zoltan.

First I heard the pan-flute played by a Romanian musician about 15 years ago, and I got hook on its beatiful sound. Finally after all those years I am able to own and learn to play this beatiful instrument.

Bela

Ps. Your Web site is the best designed

I ever seen.

Hi Melinda,

3 days and it is here! From our most western state of Hawaii to the most southeastern part of Florida! Incredible! I live in SW Miami-Dade County surrounded by dirt roads and tomato fields. Our faithful postal service delivery vehicle kicked up lots of dirt and drove to our front gate with the package. Our herding dogs and sheep are in for a treat when I call them with the Panflute later.

You have great packaging so it arrived just fine. Now I need to be patient, one note at a time!

Melinda,

I received my flute on Saturday. I absolutely LOVE it. The tonal quality is superb. I have almost mastered the upper notes and breath control is definitely the key for me. I am looking forward to being able to play well enough to serenade my friends. Thanks so much for a beautiful instrument. - Connie

Hello to all. My name is Daniel. I recently [March 6,] got a tenor pan flute from Brad and have been practicing and enjoying this wonderful instrument. At first I was getting dizzy and hyperventilating traying to play it. Then things got better but still felt that it took so much air. At one point I got a bit discouraged but kept trying. You pros make it look soo very easy and effortless, lol. Then one day I kind of had an eureka moment. Something fell into place. I realized it was finesse and my lips, embouchure seemed also to be getting stronger. "Oh happy day" Lol.

So, got to keep on practicing. I posted a short youtube clip practicing "The Old Rugged Cross". Sometime in the future I would like to play at church. As I don't have a teacher, feedback on how to improve is much apreciated.

Watch my YouTube Video

Aloha,

Daniel

Aloha to you Daniel! You are doing so well, congratulations! You

have developed a nice, pleasing tone and a good performance of the

song. You could play that at church right now and I think everyone

would love it :)

I noticed you were a little under pitch at the start, but you once you

warmed up it got much better. Some things to work on as you progress

are adding some dynamics and swells.. also learn to incorporate a nice

vibrato. These things will help put a nice touch on the pieces. Try

singing the piece and then play it.. let your voice be your guide.

The more you play... whatever songs that might be, you are going to

just keep getting stronger.

Keep having fun, and it will never seem like work.

Aloha .. Brad

Hi Brad and Melinda,

Thank you very much for the fantastic panflute, Hoda told me that how helpfull you were in sending the panflute. I have started reading the book, and took a look at the DVDs which are great. I am sure I will have many question in the learning process as I am very new to playing music (my first instrument) which will be a reason to keep in touch in years to come.

Once more thank you very much

Dear Brad,

I hasten to say that my pan flute arrived yesterday (while I was at school where I teach Christianity twice a week to 11 and 12-year-olds) so I was able to collect it from the nearby post office only today (Tuesday, March 17th). It took only seven days from Hawaii to France! Thank you for your prompt and friendly response, and for your obviously sincere wish to see that your customers are happy! I will keep you informed of my progress.

Sincerely,

Brad and Melinda,

Thank you - the flute arrived today in perfect condition. It is beautiful! I didn't have much luck getting sound out of it at first, then I put it down for awhile and came back at it again - and was able to actually start making some reasonable sounds with it!

I am looking forward to practicing on it and to actually play a first song or two.

I will highly recommend you to anyone who may be interested.

Sincerely,

Tricia

Hi Mr. White! Just wanted to say thank you SO much for sending me the 18-Pipe Tenor. It came promptly and I was very impressed with how well you packaged everything. I LOVE IT!!! The sound is both magical and beautiful -- JUST what I was hoping for! You did NOT let me down!

I have been fortunate so far in making the sounds come out pretty easily. I can do both methods of vibrato, as well as making sharps/flats with both methods. Now, I just need to improve my breathing so I don't feel like I'm going to faint everytime I play!

Thanks again. Hope your having a great weekend!

i love my pan flute and practice every day. i have only had it for a few months but after a stress full day at work it helps me lose myself in a world outside of reality so to speak. even tho i can't play that well i try to put alot of passion into every note.i wish there was a teacher here in los angeles to help me but i cant find one who plays the pan flute. so i use books and cd's and watch yours over and over again to try and get better. reguardless i am loving it. thanks brad
