Recent Wooden Headjoint Testimonial

Martin Doyle has recently received a glowing testimonial from American flutist Shana Stone – an accomplished performer, teacher and composer/arranger who resides in Georgia. Having recently become the proud owner of one of Martin Doyle’s wooden head joints for her concert flute, Shana had the following to say…

Martin, I think this wooden headjoint is the closest thing to perfection I’ve ever played in a flute. The sound is absolutely gorgeous, the colors are amazing, it’s incredibly responsive, and the low register is so expansive and rich. It comes to life and sings! It’s been a very long time since I enjoyed playing just that much. I didn’t want to put it down!

Thank you again for this mind-blowing gift. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it and will treasure it always!

Our thanks to Shana for her kind and encouraging words.

Eimear McGeown Comments On MDF Headjoint

Martin Doyle is always grateful to receive feedback on his work as a flute maker and he was thrilled to read a post on the Facebook page of Irish flautist Eimear McGeown recently with regards to a wooden headjoint that he made for Eimear’s concert flute. It runs thus:

“Really enjoying my new Martin Doyle Flutes wooden headjoint for my classical flute!!! Have lots of really exciting new music to learn on it for the Budapest recital [Eimear is offering a recital and masterclass at the Budapest Flute Academy in Hungary, March 10—13, 2016], including two new pieces written for me by Alicia Hart and Philip Hammond!”
