Oregon Flute Store Catalog > Native American Style Flutes > Tu Trees Flutes by Ted Calavan Tu Trees Flutes by Ted Calavan
After sharing my flutes with my brother Ted in 1993 he became, like most of us, obsessed with creating his version of the perfect flute. Ted loves tradition and strives for perfection. He collects antique tools and built his own lathe out of an old trundle sewing machine. He still does most of his work by hand and I consider Ted one of the best carvers that I have ever met.
His carvings always capture the spirit of life. In 2004 Ted moved his family to Newport, Oregon, were he works for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and creates flutes with the sounds of the ocean ringing in his ears. They love their new home, but having lived in the forests of the Cascade Mountains for several years he laughed when he told me that his new home only has two trees. Thus the name! |
"Finally someone understands the physics of the flute. I love the sound quality of Wood Sounds flutes. They are strong and have the attributes I look for; they feel phenomenal. I'll be playing one at every concert."
~Robert Mirabal- Recording Artist, Performer, Composer
