Greetings!
We hope everyone in
the United States had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
We have had a great year, and highlights include a return to the
Rudolstadt folk festival in Germany - one of the premier folk music festivals
in the world. Also, more and more Carbony™ instruments are being heard on
recordings than ever before! Artists with new albums in 2016 include Sean
Gavin, Josh Dukes, Daphyd Crow of Omnia, Craig Downie of Enter the Haggis and
Solana of the Gothard Sisters. And even with our busy schedule we managed to
fit in a couple new events including the Aztec Highland Games in New Mexico.
We are looking forward
to next year and we are pleased to announce that we have been accepted into the
Australian National Folk Festival in Canberra over the Easter weekend. This will be our first trip down under, and we
are looking forward to this exciting adventure.
Refinements of current
designs have been the emphasis of our work this past year. Just about every product has been improved in
its design and stability. This winter, we
are looking to add drones to our Uilleann pipes, so look for a half set
available sometime in the spring.
Our first patent, Fipple (mouthpiece) for a wind musical
instrument and method of making a fipple for a wind musical instrument, was
approved by the US Patent office. This has been a six year process and a real
breakthrough.
Additionally, a recent
technological breakthrough has allowed us to successfully prototype our Irish
flute in D with finger spacing to match a silver flute. If you are looking for an Irish flute that is
easy to play with smaller hands, and are interested in trying one of the newest
models, please send us an email inquiring about our extended chimney model
flute.
