I’m a flute maker with about 25 years of experience. I work to make very carefully tuned and well playing flutes (A=440 Hz) from a renewable, yet ancient resource… bamboo. This site is still under construction but take a look around. The “video” tab has good examples of what they sound like.
Fine tuned bamboo flutes in the keys (left to right) Low C, Low D (Irish) Eb, F, G, A, Bb, and C piccolo by Wm. Miller
Apologies to those who have tried to find me in the recent past. I have had a couple of sites that have crashed (losing valuable, intricate, yes, even delicate webs of fluterific info. that I had no control over, (hey, I wasn’t the webmaster!) This is my somewhat meager attempt to remedy that. (Must give accolades to wordpress. Yes, I do know flutes. No, I don’t know HTML)
Cheers, Billy

Hi everyone. I’m a flute maker with about 25 years of experience. This is hopefully where in the future you will come to get info. and updates on the flutes I make, how to play simple system flutes, cool flute links, history of the flute, and of course, video demos, photos, and music recordings I, and others have made on these flutes.
If you have any questions about the availability of a certain key, or style, just email me at: billymiller(at)swva(dot) net for now. Thanks!
