Hi Brad, I definitely agree with you on everything you said below. But I was refering specifically to the nai, within the context of nai (and outside of the...
... Yes I agree with you... you could also have a style as a musician, but be new to the panflute. It takes time and experimentation. Of course not everyone...
Right on. That's what I assumed (and hence my question to Erik) - when Zamfir wrote (if I'm paraphrasing correctly) that one should have the instrument built...
