I’m absolutely thrilled to have the multi-talented Connor Keene host this grand tour of my new xiao line! The xiao is one of the most versatile open-hole flutes in the world, with outstanding range and tonal flexibility. Connor is one of the best players I’ve seen, and his detailed evaluation of each different key provides an invaluable overview for any player interested in exploring the xiao for the first time, or for advanced students and professionals who are looking to upgrade their instrument.
And for those who wonder, Connor received no financial compensation for making this video :-). He actually assisted me in testing the prototypes of the less common xiao tunings and (to my utter shock and delight) he volunteered to make a video tour showcasing the full range of flutes. So my sincere thanks to Connor for his heartfelt collaboration on this new offering. In fact, I’ve written about working with Connor, and for those who are interested you can read about it in my blog:
www.ellisflutes.com/blog/keen...
And for anyone interested in what the flutes are made of, they are (in order of appearance):
Curly Maple low A, Curly Maple (stained) low Bflat, Osage Orange B, Black Ebonite C, Cocobolo D, Bocote E and African Blackwood F. Take note that not all of these woods (specifically the Osage and Cocobolo) are still available, but I do still offer a wide variety of attractive options.
You can find my xiao, along with a selection of other world flutes on my website at: www.ellisflutes.com/

Hi Jeoffrey,my name is Dat. I love the tone consistancy of your xiao. Where can I order one of your wonderful instruments? Thank you.
@ghostofcapt
Please explain what is the functionality of the two bottom holes of the flute at the bottom of the flute (often they are on the back of the flute)? In theory, the third hole from the bottom is the lowest note of the flute with all playing (finger) holes (eight) closed, and it turns out that the wavelength is limited by this hole. Why are two more holes needed below, for what reason?
