Well, not exactly. There are some pieces where the harder parts go to the brass, or another instrument gets a solo and we don't. But usually we get more stuff since we're the higher voice in the band. Unless you're a piccolo, then you get to always be heard, no matter what note you're playing! mrgreen

No matter what we're playing we never get a solo. And we work our a** off. We have to work harder than any other section in our band.

@ Karina: There's a song called Riversongs by Pierre LePlante, and there's technically just a trumpet solo, but the piccolo was added in because it repeats and the flutes come in the second time.
@ Screamin: Well with my school band, basically every section has its work cut out for them at a certain part in each piece of music. Like in Riversongs, it's articulation for everyone, and with another piece we're playing it's trying to make the trumpets back off.

I love playing that song although I can't really play it with anyone ): Yes, that's the guy! But UGH after a while Riversongs just gets sooooo annoying! I can practically play it all by memory. But since we had a concert today, we're done with that piece. sweatdrop

http://www.armstrongflutes.net/flutes/product.php?model=800BMy flute. It's not, like, uber special, but it's pretty nice. Plus it's all silver and it has a gold lip plate and crown. Just thought I'd show it to you guys, and maybes anyone else can post pics of their flute? I've also had an Armstrong 303 for a flute(it's only got a silver head joint), a crappy Armstrong marching flute, and an Armstrong metal piccolo which I use for band and also now for marching band! And, yes, that means I won't be using my bad flute anytime soon.

I was looking into purchasing a 303B
But my music dealer advised me to buy a Brio B10.

But my music dealer advised me to buy a Brio B10.Well I personally recommend Armstrong as like a pretty good step-up, but it depends on what you like. A 303B only has a SS head joint I believe, and the 800B is all silver. But I advise that if you want to get a more professional instrument or something, to go and buy it used at a good dealer. That's where my dad gets my instruments, and they all work fine.
