This thread caught my attention because I have always wanted to play the flute. There is a long and complicated story behind why I learned guitar, piano, recorder, voice, and pennywhistle instead, but I won't tell that here. What I'd like to know is, now that I am on the brink of a purchase, what is a "good" middle quality flute, what should I look for, and how much should I expect to pay? Also, can anyone recommend a particular flute "method" series for me to start with?Thanks,
