Oh, I know this. When I was in college, I dated a flautist. She gave me the rundown on the different flute sizes and the like.

They exist, they're just mislabelled.



Ah yes, I've been there before. VERY nice site for the big horns.

Incidentally, it gladdens my heart tremendously to find that Jay Easton has finally secured himself that BBb Octocontramonster he was talking about a year ago last christmas. The Epplesheim Tubax, as I recall. I got a chance to listen to him play his Eb Contrabass sax at the same time. Talk about an experience. I could feel it rattling my sinuses. Wonderful sound it had.

It was taller than he was, as I recall.

Cool deal! I'll have to keep an eye out for it.
