Don Smithers?

mcstock · 08-30-2005, 09:57 PM

I'm really taken by the sound of Don Smithers' piccolo playing (especially on the album with the Michael Haydn and the Richter on it) and am striving to base my sound on it. While I realize that its the man behind the gun that counts, does anyone know what sort of equipment he used?

Thanks,
Matt

mcs,

I'm almost certain that Don played an old Mahillon piccolo.

Cheers,
EC
