LeHart e-mail address?

Irish Flute
1

Anyone know if Gilles LeHart is reachable via e-mail? Or am I gonna have to make a tans-atlantic call (which is fine, I suppose, but not free. . .)

I’m trying to decide between a LeHart, Copley, Hamilton and Bryan Byrne keyless. My understanding is that the wait from Copley and LeHart is probably more reasonable than that from Byrne – and the prices a bit lower – but I’m going to enquire with each of these folks. Any9one know of any recordings, commercial or on the web, of a Byrne flute? Don’t know that I’ve heard one. . .

Thanks, all.

I don`t think Mr Lehart is a computer kinda guy. I called him first and talked about flutes and then I wrote him with my order. The wait is about 8 months.

I played a Bryan Byrne keyless on a couple of duets with Bob Abrams (accordion) on his album “A Fool’s Advice.” See http://www.octavemandolin.com/html/fools_advice.html for information. Also, Jimmy Noonan recorded several tunes with a Bryan Byrne keyless Eb flute on his fabulous “Maple Leaf” album with Chris McGrath and friends. And Dan Isaacson in Boston plays a Byrne flute on a recent CD, don’t have the name for it, sorry.

Edit: Ah, I found a link (with a few MP3s) for the band that Dan plays in:
