Michael Eskin posts more regularly on the flute forum, but he has a great web site:
There is a page where he plays the same tune on different instruments, so that you can compare the sound of, let’s say, a Burke to a Sindt, or a Hamilton flute to an M & E.
Michael just bought a Healy piccolo from me, and in 2 days he can already play the hell out of it. Check out his clip of that instrument, and then eat your heart out that you didn’t snap it up before he did.
