I am pretty sure that is what they said, when I listened to a quick blurb about this flute, earlier today;
but perhaps I should have researched it, to see if I heard correctly,
before I, myself, posted that here as fact?

Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden invited the flautist to explore the institution’s collection of 1,800 flutes.I am pretty sure that is what they said, when I listened to a quick blurb about this flute, earlier today;

OH MY GOSH.....
I did hear that number incorrectly!
But in the opposite direction, than I'd feared!
That is a few more flutes than I'd even imagined!

Playing the different flutes was interesting.

I'll have to admit that I didn't get Lizzo's appeal at first, but I've seen her on some late-night talk shows and not only is she talented, she is incredibly funny! Props to Lizzo.

I myself was more amazed by the flute, than with her, but okay!
She must be talented, to play that flute!

"At the age of 9, she moved with her family to Houston, Texas, where she started her real training in music. She learned to play the flute and listened to as much music as she could. She also joined the school’s marching band in middle school and continued till she joined college. She played the piccolo in the school marching band."
