A: The 221 is the standard entry-level Yamaha flute. The 211 has a split E key. The 211 are more often found in GB and AUS than the US. For a beginner, the split E is really overkill - I have seen them on the cheapest of Chinese flutes, too, but if you are an American student, go with the 221. I would strongly suspect that a 211 in the US is *gray market* - not legally imported into the Us, and not built to American manufacturing standards - and possibly not tuned to 440 or 442, the current American standards. Just don't go there - trust me.

Duxbury High musicians play Carnegie Hall Duxbury Reporter

Apr 17, 2010

 Perhaps the most memorable thing about stepping onto the stage of Carnegie Hall isn’t the echoes of history, or the 2,800 seats rising sharply into the air. It’s the sound.

At least, that was the experience of a few of the Duxbury High School musicians who performed on the stage where Leonard Bernstein and Duke Ellington once stood.

“It’s more ‘live,’ you hear every single note you play,” bassoonist Ryan Piesco said. Peisco, a senior, was one of the 105 students who went to New York April 3 to perform in the National Band and Orchestra Festival. “The dynamics were crazy,” senior Connor Inglis added.

“Carnegie Hall has a real delay in sound,” Music Director Ric Madru said. “You can hear yourself breathe on that stage.”

“We’ve heard the pieces quite a few times,” Debbie Jewell, whose junior son, Billy plays trumpet, said, “but it’s amazing how different that stage is acoustically.”
