Any of you Rudall guru’s know what the serial number is on Cathal McConnell’s Rudall? Cathal played here a few months ago and told me he was lucky to get the Rudall he is playing now and that it was a good one. I remember his “old” one had a lot of “extras” (rubber bands etc.). I forgot to ask him
I’m actually interested in this as well. He was kind enough to let me play it (lovely flute) but I didn’t bother to check the number. Plus the lighting in the pub is awful, so even if I had remembered, I probably wouldn’t have been able to tell…
Same here, bad lighting and people milling about. At the end of the gig Cathal had the flute, hopefully, in it’s box, in a Netto plastic shopping bag. Cool.
