Welcome to Bideford Folk Festival and thanks to
Tony Dixon Music for supporting the festival
Tony Dixon has been making flutes, pipes and whistles for many years. An accomplished player, he doesn't let an instrument out of his workshop that he wouldn't be happy to play himself.
Although he started making instruments from the traditional woods such as box, maple and cherry, Tony has always been ready to experiment. This led to the development of the very popular range of polymer and ABS flutes and whistles, and also aluminium, nickel and brass bodied instruments. A very popular innovation is the ‘Duo’ instrument with one body and two heads! This allows a quick change from flute or piccolo to high or low whistle using the same body.
There are one-piece whistles and flutes, two-piece tuneable whistles and flutes, as well as the tuneable duo-head whistles and flutes.
