Thread Name: buying Catalan instruments in Barcelona
Subject: buying Catalan instruments in Barcelona
My girlfriend is in Barcelona at the moment and I asked her to look out for some musical things for me. She hasn't found it easy. CDs of L'Ham de Foc are unobtainable since their record company went bust recently. And she can't find any shop that sells traditional Catalan instruments; I was hoping for a keyed flabiol, or maybe a fible - a friend of mine has a tenora so we could play together. They all just say "that's difficult".

Ideas? Where do you buy cobla instruments, or a sac de gemecs?
