I have worked exclusively on flutes and piccolos since 2005, when I joined the All Flutes Plus repair workshop in London having just graduated from the Woodwind Repair and Making course at Newark and Sherwood College. Flutes are my passion, be they professional or student instruments, or anything in between. Of all the woodwinds the flute family can easily boast the largest range of instruments both historic and modern and because of this there is always something else to see and to work with. Even though the modern instrument is basically unchanged since Boehm’s design around 1850, there is a huge variance in the modern flute both in quality and specific mechanisms.
Following a relocation in November 2010, my workshop is now based in Scotland. However, I continue to accommodate the needs of my clients all across the UK for a range of services including minor adjustments, services, full overhauls, minor or major repairs and alterations as necessary.
I don’t only work with flutes and have been known to take on the occasional clarinet, oboe, saxophone, recorder and even a shruti!
