"This range of concert-pitch vessel flutes give the most beautiful, gentle sounds.  They are suitable for playing solo but give best effects when played in small groups. Two people can easily play in the same key using the tunes in Book 3.   Ds and Gs play well together as do B flats and E flats - if you know what you're doing!  I produced the B flat and E flat instruments as a result of direct requests from performing musicians who wanted to play  their clarinet music on these highly portable little wind instruments."
