DD is working towards grade 7 and her teacher has suggested that she needs to upgrade her yamaha flute.She's been trying out a couple of heads (an altus and a pearl).
Basically this upgrade will cost about £500 .I am not musical and the difference on the tone from her old one is marginal.Apparently the next best would cost about £1000.So what I'd like to know is is there a dramatic differenc in the sound and tone of a £1000 flute to our upgraded head for £450.
We will need to trek up to London to try out others so I'd like to know if it's worth it.
Thanks
