Not just flutists. I believe this is the only page I've ever seen that explains why cilindrical and conical bores behave differently. I've always wondered why an oboe does what it does and never could find an explanation.

Flute: simple. Open pipe. (Really, I learned this wavelength stuff in high school.)

Clarinet: simple. Stopped pipe. (Barely more complicated.)

Oboe: looks stopped, so why does it behave like a flute? Read that web site.

I have been playing flute for 21 years (I am 34 right now). This is a great resource.
Thanks

I'm impressed, but to be honest you really do deserve a few hours' rest.

P.S.: Even more impressive, I know a guy who can play the piccolo part from The Stars and Stripes Forever.
