[E] [A] [F] They are music [Am] teachers and [B] professors [E] [Am] who make up [E] the Florida Flute Orchestra [Am] [Dm] under the direction of [Am] Paige Law.
[E] [A] Very, very beautiful sounds.
[E] The instruments cover [Am] the range [Dm] of notes found on a piano [Am] keyboard.

[N] Foghorn.

This one even more rare.
Three in the world.
One in the Netherlands, one in Washington, D.C., and of course [Am] this one here in Florida.

It's the [E] real deal here.
