What can anyone tell me about Olivier Bouchard and his wooden fipple , brass body whistles, who plays them, etc and also who else offers that combination?
cheers

I believe Olivier is a member here using his name “Olivier” as his tag.
I know nothing about his whistles other than the few videos out on the Internet. It is an interesting design.

As for the wooden head and brass body, several makers have offered that combination such as Ronaldo Reyburn and David O’Brien.
Reyburn has moved to a delrin/brass combination. David O’Brien offers a couple models with wood and brass.
