Hi Abner and everyone, I have a cx12 Chromatic that i'm screwing
around with, but also for an inexpensive little chromatic, a 10
hole swan, that I carry around in my harp bag. A little tiney
sounding but very good to start with considering the price. On E-Bay.

also a first book to play chrom I found pretty good was David Harp's
book on chromatic. (Abner I'll lend you my copy when I get back.)

I love flute music. And it's hard for me just to understand the
entry level stuff on the diatonic. I play by my tone deaf ear and
very short term music memory loss.
I can play when the music is on. Buy once it's off so is my mind.
