Renaissance Traverse
Christian Hamann, Taunusstein
The Traversflute is a rather quiet instrument. The flute that I used here was made by Christian Hamann. It is modelled after a picture in the book Syntagma Musicum.
(If You look closely You can find the the instrument in the background picture of this documentation.)
